Remember Paul Lawrie?
Sixteen years after becoming one of the most improbable winners in British Open history, Lawrie will go to the third round just two shots behind leader Dustin Johnson.
The 46-year-old Scot shot a 70 on Saturday, pushing his score on the Old Course to 8-under 136 at the midway point.
Back in 1999, Lawrie rallied from 10 shots behind on the final day and won in a playoff at Carnoustie.
