A a ? ii a Greg Norman of Australia attacks St Andrews with a second straight 66 Friday giving him the 132 that a tied with Britain a Nick Faldo atop the British open Leader . Norman tied a St. Andrews Scotland up a Nick Faldo fired a tournament Best 7-under-Par 65 Friday to move into a tie a with Greg Norman for the Lead after two rounds of the 119th British open Faldo who has won the last two masters titles and Norman finished the Day with two round scores of 12-under-Par 132 at the 6,933-Yard old course. Norman who shared the first round Lead with Michael Allen holed a 75-Yard Chip shot for an Eagle on the Way to firing his second straight 66. Faldo and Norman were four strokes ahead of their nearest competitors. Payne Stewart last years pea championship Winner and Craig Parry carded Otheir second straight 68s to stand at a under 136. Next at 7-under came James Spence who also fired a 65 Friday along with Ian Woosnam Nick Price and Mike Reid. Price and Reid carded second round 67s, and Woosnam finished with a 69. Faldo began the Day one stroke off the Lead but ran off three straight birdies at nos. 5, 6 and 7 to move to the front. After falling behind when Norman posted his Eagle he put together consecutive birdies at the 15th and 16th holes to pull even. A it was Good All of us sailing along a Faldo said of a time when he Norman and Woosnam were leapfrogging Back and Forth at the front. A when everybody plays Well and Are holing putts it s All Good stuff. Everybody was adding one As we were going Faldo the 1987 British open Champion said he would never have expected to master the legendary old course the Way he has the first two Days. A i have thought anybody would be 12-under,�?� he said. A a we a British open had relatively Good weather this week. Usually when the wind blows it really blows a even the seagulls Norman who had bogeyed the Par-4 13th Hole to fall one stroke behind Faldo and Woosnam hit his wedge shot at the Par-5 14th about two feet beyond the pin from where the Ball bounced once spun backward and dropped into the cup. A that was a real shot in the and a Bonus a he said. A i could see the Ball spin Back but i see it go in. The sound from the grandstand was enough to Tell Norman won the British open in 1986, but is better known for being nipped at the end in two masters tournaments and the 1986 pea championship. He said he was t worried about any potential Duel with Faldo. A a in la try to go out with the same attitude a play my own game and not worry about who a behind me or in front of me a he said a if somebody is Good enough to beat me so be Stewart playing Early in the Day Bir died three holes on the front Side then played the Back Side in 1-under to hold the morning Lead. A i played much like yesterday a was patient and put the Ball on the greens a lot i was trying to gel my Putter working for me a Stewart said. �?o1 was trying to stay out of situations where it would Cost me shots and the Only Way to do that is to stay away from those Little Woosnam who began the Day at 4-under, put together a Stellar front Side carding four birdies by the turn and added two More on nos. 10 and 11 to move into Contention. But a bogey at no. 15 and a double bogey at no. 17 a a the treacherous Road Hole where he found the Road Bunker and missed a two foot putt for bogey a dropped him five shots off the Pace. Spence a 27-year-od englishman who missed the Cut in each of his last four tournaments birdied three of the final four holes on the front Side and added a run of four birdies in five holes after the turn in posting his 65. A when i go to my bedroom and see my name on the television ill probably think a my god was that really me a a Spence said. Fridays round began much like thursday did a in still air with Only a slight Breeze. Though moderate Cloud cover obliterated the Sun that beat Down on golfers in the first round the Lack of wind took away some of the Challenge the old course presents in typical North sea bluster. But As it had done thursday the wind stiffened by noon Friday As temperatures dropped drastically and scores Rose. Allen playing in the Days penultimate group recorded three bogeys to fall to 4-under after 16 holes. Defending Champion Mark Calcavecchia also was among the victims recording three bogeys and a double bogey on the Back Side on the Way to a 3-Over-Par 75. That left him at 2-Over 146, with Little Chance of making the Cut. Seve Ballesteros the last Man to win an open title at St. Andrews when he was victorious in 1984, also was in danger of going Home Early. Ballesteros carded a 74 Friday leaving him at 1-Over 145.
