Andy Sullivan joins Marc Warren as Portugal Masters leaders (The Associated Press)

VILAMOURA, Portugal (AP) -- Defending champion Andy Sullivan had 10 birdies in a 10-under round of 61 to take a share of the lead after two rounds of the Portugal Masters on Friday.

The English golfer, who won last year's event by a record nine shots, pulled level with overnight leader Marc Warren.

''It only takes a couple of putts to go in and you start seeing it go in all the time,'' Sullivan said. ''Last year, I was aggressive the whole way around, and I've got to be aggressive again.''

The Scottish player Warren had seven birdies and one bogey in a round of 65 to stay with Sullivan on 14-under overall.
