Paul Dunne, an amateur from Ireland, lines up his putt on the 18th green during the third round.

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland -- Is the spirit of Bobby Jones influencing the 144th British Open? That's the question hanging over St. Andrews. Can Ireland's Paul Dunne or Oklahoma State rising senior Jordan Niebrugge do what no amateur has done since Jones in 1930 and win the game's oldest major?

Dunne used a 6-under 66 on Sunday to climb into a share of the lead at 12 under alongside 2010 champion Louis Oosthuizen and Jason Day.
