Brian Harman shot a 6-under-par 65 to surge into the lead during the second round of the Open Championship on Friday at Portrush, Northern Ireland.
Harman moved to 8-under 134 following the bogey-free round on Friday. He birdied the first two holes as part of 3-under marks on the front and back sides.
Harman is a four-time winner on the PGA Tour, including this year's Valero Texas Open.
First-round co-leader Harris English (70 on Friday), Denmark's Rasmus Hojgaard (68), England's Tyrrell Hatton (69) and Scotland's Robert MacIntyre (66) all were at 5 under among golfers who had completed their second rounds at Royal Portrush Golf Club.
Some golfers had yet to begin their second rounds while the pecking order at the top was taking shape. Many others who were around the top of the leaderboard through Thursday's first round were just a few holes into their rounds.
Other notables to finish their second rounds as part of the morning wave were U.S. Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley (67) and Masters champion Rory McIlroy (69) of Northern Ireland. They're both at 3 under going to the weekend.
English had an erratic round with four birdies and three bogeys.
Bradley's eagle on the second hole was a boost for a bogey-free round. McIlroy played the last 13 holes in 2 under without a bogey.
