The British Open is halfway through, with Shane Lowry in sole possession of the lead.
Lawry shot a 69 in the second round on Friday to drop to seven under par and take a two-stroke lead heading into Moving Day at Royal Troon in Scotland, where he had a slight advantage again in the second round after strong winds pounded the afternoon waves and caused early exits for several big names.
Daniel Brown, who led after the first round, shot a 1-over 72 on Friday. He starts Saturday at 5-under par, along with Justin Rose, who tied the day’s lowest score with a 3-under 68. They are the first British-Irish trio to share the lead halfway through the British Open since 1951.
World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler will start the season at 2 under par, five strokes behind Lawrie. Scheffler has six PGA Tour wins this season and is fresh off a playoff victory at the Travelers Championship.
