Trio tied through two rounds at Qatar Masters

DOHA, Qatar – South Africans Justin Harding and George Coetzee share a one-shot lead at the Qatar Masters with Frenchman Mike Lorenzo-Vega after all three shot 4-under 68 for the second straight round on Friday.

The trio top a tight leaderboard at 8 under, with 12 players within two shots heading into the weekend at Doha Golf Club.

''I'm just happy to be playing some better golf,'' said Coetzee, who has four top-10 finishes at the tournament but has never won.

''I guess I made a bit of a mind switch and started focusing a little bit more on what's going on at the moment instead of where I want to be in a couple of years.
