ISPS Handa World Invitational, Galgorm Castle, Northern Ireland: 11-14 Aug (Men)
Day Two: Daniel Brown now has a six shot lead
From DP World Tour, Day Two Digest:
Daniel Brown carded the lowest round of his DP World Tour career on Thursday and he stormed ahead with an equally impressive 66 at Galgorm in round two. He achieved his first PGA TOUR top ten last time out at the Barbasol Championship and he certainly maintained that momentum in Northern Ireland. The 28-year-old mixed four birdies with three bogeys on his front nine, but a stunning run of three birdies in four holes from the second - he lipped out another chance at the fourth - saw him lead by six shots from Spain's Angel Hidalgo and fellow Englishman Alex Fitzpatrick.
