With a cumulative of 12 under par in two rounds, he leads his pursuers by four strokes.\n\nHis main competitors are Alex Smalley (65), Xander Schauffele (63) and Alex Noren (65).\n\nThe tournament, which is held in Yokohama this year after having been played east of Tokyo, is the only PGA Tour event in Japan.
