SHENZHEN, China (AP) -- The American duo of Boo Weekley and Heath Slocum held on to a one-stroke lead in the OMEGA Mission Hills World Cup shooting a 3-under 69 in Friday's second round to lead England and Scotland.
England's Justin Rose and Ian Poulter, and Scotland's Colin Montgomerie and Marc Warren both shot 68 to trail by a shot on 13-under 131. The South African team of Trevor Immelman and Retief Goosen were another shot back after a 69. Three teams were three behind -- Denmark (68), Italy (68) and Germany (71).
After a low-scoring day Thursday in the easier better-ball format, scores soared in Friday alternate-shot play at the Mission Hills Golf Club in southern China. Though this is a stroke-play event, match-play rules are in force.
