Fitzpatrick Takes the Lead After Round Two of the RBC Heritage

Matt Fitzpatrick has taken the top spot on the leaderboard after the second round of the RBC Heritage, finishing with a one-stroke lead after shooting an impressive eight-under-par 63. The English golfer had a flawless round, making eight birdies, including a notable 36-foot putt on the 15th hole at Hilton Head. Fitzpatrick, the 2022 US Open champion, started the day in a six-way tie for third place after an opening round of 65. He now leads the tournament at the halfway point with a score of 14 under par. Norway's Viktor Hovland is in second place, just one stroke behind, after scoring 65 in the second round. Overnight leader Ludvig Aberg slipped to joint-fourth position after making three bogeys on the back nine. Meanwhile, Scotland's Robert MacIntyre trails Fitzpatrick by six shots after posting a 68, and world number one Scottie Scheffler is seven shots off the pace after carding a 67.
