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 achieving 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 the Hilton Head course. Following an initial round of 65, Fitzpatrick started Friday in a six-way tie for third but now leads the pack at 14 under par. Norway's Viktor Hovland is in second place, just one stroke behind, after scoring 65 in the second round. Meanwhile, overnight leader Ludvig Aberg slipped to a joint-fourth position after encountering three bogeys on the back nine. Robert MacIntyre of Scotland is six shots behind Fitzpatrick after scoring 68, and world number one Scottie Scheffler is seven shots off the pace with a score of 67.
