Yes, that’s Louis Oosthuizen – once again – atop a major leaderboard.

Oosthuizen took the lead for the fifth time in his past nine major rounds, this time with a second-round 65 that kept him in front at The Open. Sitting at a record 11-under 129, he’s two shots clear of Collin Morikawa at Royal St. George’s.

Oosthuizen shared the halfway lead at the PGA. He was the co-leader after the first and third rounds of the U.S. Open. Now he's been in front after each of the first two days at The Open.
