Mark Tullo finished tied for third among a who's who field at The Barclays Scottish Open this weekend at Castle Stuart Golf Links in Inverness, Scotland.

A native of Santiago, Chile, who competed for the Wolfpack back in the late 1990's, Tullo finished the rain-shortened 54-hole event at 14-under 202.

He finished ahead of past major champions - Padraig Harrington, Ernie Els, Graeme McDowell, Phil Mickelson, and tied with past Master's champ Angel Cabrera.

Tullo is in his first year on The European Tour after a pair of victories in 2010 on the Challenge Tour. The victory at the Egyptian Open came in a field that included current U.S. Open title holder Rory McIlroy.
