British Masters 2017: Tyrell Hatton Holds 3-Stroke Lead After Round 2

Tyrrell Hatton sits three shots clear at the top of the 2017 British Masters leaderboard on Friday after carding a second round 65 to move to 12-under.

Meanwhile, five players sit three shots behind, with Ashley Chesters, Lee Westwood, Ian Poulter, Robert Karlsson and Chris Hanson all at nine-under par.

The full leaderboard can be accessed via the European Tour's official website.

Hatton began the day tied at the top of the leaderboard with George Coetzee but picked up six birdies to move clear of the chasing pack.

Even the weather could not disrupt the Englishman's charge, as noted by the European Tour’s official Twitter account:

The sun did eventually come out at Close House and shone on Poulter and Westwood, who both enjoyed a fine round as they charged up the leaderboard.
