LAURA MURRAY LEADS AFTER THE FIRST ROUND AT DUNDONALD

Alford's long-hitting Laura Murray, already a winner twice on the Paul Lawrie Ladies Tartan Tour, is favourite to raise her victory total to three after establishing a one-shot lead at halfway in the latest two-round event at Dundonald Links.
Murray shot a two-over-par 74 to have a one-shot advantage over Heather MacRae (Gleneagles) with Jane Turner (Craigielaw) in third place on 76.
Beth Allen, an American who plays on the LET Tour, is sharing fourth place on 78 with Milngavie amateur Nicola Ferguson, a good performance in this company.
