Hazel Irvine hosts live coverage of the third round of the Barclays Scottish Open from the scenic Loch Lomond course.
World No. 2 Phil Mickelson was denied a first-ever Scottish Open win by Frenchman Gregory Havret in a "sudden death" play-off last year. American Mickelson is back to try again this year and will be hoping to avoid yesterday's cut, as will two-time Scottish Open champion Ernie Els, and Lee Westwood, who capped his return to form with a third-place finish at last month's US Open.

Viewers can enjoy live coverage from the Alexander Stadium in Birmingham, where the National Championships – which are also doubling as the British trials for next month's Olympic Games – are taking place.
With places on the plane to Beijing at stake, there will be plenty of fascinating battles in both track and field events, including a showdown between 400m rivals Christine Ohuruogu and Nicola Sanders. They finished first and second, respectively, at last year's World Championships and will be among Britain's leading hopes for medals in China.
The men's 100m is likely to dominate proceedings due to the presence of Dwain Chambers. The sprinter, who has served a two-year suspension, is hoping to force the British Olympic Association to overturn its ban on him competing in Beijing and a good result here could set his high-court appeal in motion. Among those he is likely to face in Birmingham is Tyrone Edgar, who has been clocking some impressive times this year, while Craig Pickering will be hoping to perform well after recovering from a hamstring injury that ruled him out of last month's European Cup.

Nick Knowles and Myleene Klass continue their quest to find the Last Choir Standing
BBC One continues its new Saturday night entertainment show with hosts Myleene Klass and Nick Knowles searching for the nation's favourite choir.
Russell Watson, Sharon D Clarke and Suzi Digby make up the expert judging panel who put the choirs through their paces.
Tonight's show picks up the journey as the judges' favourite choirs from the Cadogan Hall auditions return to prove they have what it takes to make it into the next stage of the contest. The choirs once again travel to London, but this time they come to the BBC's Television Centre – the home of live TV entertainment – to perform in front of the judges.
They have only one chance to convince Russell, Sharon and Suzi that they deserve to progress to the final 15. But how will they deal with the pressure of the lights, the cameras and the studio audience? For many, the journey will come to an end. However, those with the necessary talent and determination will make it through to the next stage of the competition, still vying for the title of Last Choir Standing.

Toby spies a female patient he knew from medical school and offers to treat her broken leg, as the hospital drama continues. She teases him that she didn't think he'd make it as a doctor. Later – disregarding Sean's advice – he completes her leg surgery alone. However, the post-op X-ray shows that Toby has made a big orthopaedic mistake.
Meanwhile, Jessica and Adam are excited about going to Alice's birthday party that evening and are clearly enjoying every moment they spend together. Sean then arrives in ED with his and Jessica's two children in tow – he has a problem with childcare. Jessica trusts Adam enough to ask him to help out and, despite himself, Adam bonds with the kids.
Kelsey decides to attend her internet "boyfriend's" funeral. But, on arrival at the crematorium, it is made clear that she isn't welcome. Big Mac then breaks the news – full of guilt and remorse – that there was no James, and it was him all along. He inadvertently reveals that Alice knew about the scam too. Kelsey is furious and intent on confronting Alice.
At her party, Alice gets uncharacteristically drunk and Curtis over-reacts to her flirtatious behaviour on the dance floor.
Toby is played by Matthew Needham, Sean by Richard Dillane, Jessica by Gillian Kearney, Adam by Tristan Gemmill, Alice by Sam Grey, Kelsey by Janine Mellor, Big Mac by Charles Dale and Curtis by Abdul Salis.
