Celine Boutier takes a three-shot lead into the final day of the Women’s Scottish Open as she looks to secure back-to-back titles.<\/span><\/p>\n

Having won her first major last Sunday on home soil at the Evian Championship, the French player surged in front at Dundonald Links with a six-under 66.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Paphangkorn Tavatanakit of Thailand matched that score to head the chase on 10 under with Sweden’s Maja Stark (72).<\/span><\/p>\n

Halfway leader Hinako Shibuno tumbled to six off the pace with a 77.<\/span><\/p>\n

England’s Eleanor Givens is four under following her 72, while Gemma Dryburgh is the top Scot on two under after posting four front-nine birdies in a 68.<\/span><\/p>\n

World number four Boutier, the Scottish Open runner-up last year, also made a flying start, gaining four shots in her opening seven holes.<\/span><\/p>\n

A bogey at nine stalled her momentum but four further birdies – including the 17th and 18th – and just one dropped shot allowed her to capitalise on Stark’s late struggles.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Swede had held a two-shot lead after a birdie on the 10th, but bogeys on three of her final eight holes knocked her into a tie for second.<\/span><\/p>\n

Boutier, 29, said: “I’ve definitely been playing well and the fact I got a good result last week also is giving me a little bit of confidence. I’m just trying to build off of that and hopefully have a good, solid round tomorrow.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I’m trying to stay focused and I feel like this course is pretty challenging with the weather conditions. When you’re playing well, it’s easier to be positive about it.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I made a bogey on nine, which also fired me up a little bit. It was nice to get some more energy going. I’m just going to try to hopefully play the same and stick to my game-plan and see what happens.”<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
