Fitzpatrick Takes the Lead After Round Two of the RBC Heritage

English golfer Matt Fitzpatrick emerged as the leader after the second round of the RBC Heritage, having carded an impressive eight-under-par 63. His bogey-free round included eight birdies, highlighted by 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 after his opening round of 65. Now, at 14 under par, he holds a one-shot lead over Norway's Viktor Hovland, who maintained his second-place position with a score of 65 in the second round. Meanwhile, overnight leader Ludvig Aberg slipped to a joint-fourth position after encountering three bogeys on the back nine. Scotland's Robert MacIntyre trails Fitzpatrick by six shots after posting a 68, and world number one Scottie Scheffler is seven shots behind the leader after carding a 67.
