Fitzpatrick Takes the Lead After Round Two of the RBC Heritage

Following a stunning second round, Matt Fitzpatrick has secured the top spot at the RBC Heritage, finishing with a one-stroke lead after achieving an impressive eight-under-par 63. His round was marked by eight birdies, including a notable 36-foot putt on the 15th hole, all without a single bogey at Hilton Head. Starting the day in a six-way tie for third after an opening round of 65, Fitzpatrick, the 2022 US Open champion, now leads the leaderboard with 14 under par at the tournament's halfway point. Viktor Hovland of Norway follows closely, one stroke behind, after maintaining his second-place position with a second-round score of 65. Meanwhile, overnight leader Ludvig Aberg slipped to a joint-fourth position due to three bogeys on the back nine. Robert MacIntyre of Scotland trails Fitzpatrick by six shots after posting a 68, and world number one Scottie Scheffler, with a score of 67, is seven shots off the lead.
