Kevin Phelan has carried on his fine showing at the Joburg Open with a solid second round to sit on 8-under par after a 68 this morning.

Peter Lawrie has dropped back to 3-under, while Gareth Maybin tees off from the same mark - both are currently in danger of missing the cut.

New European Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke's week is almost certainly over - he's ended the day on one-over.

Englishman Simon Dyson, along with South African pair Garth Mulroy and Tjaart van der Walt, hold the clubhouse lead on 11-under.
