Rose, Wilson share lead at BMW event
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 18 - 09 - 2011

Britain's Justin Rose took a bogey on the final hole to fire a three-under par 68 and settle for a share of the lead with Mark Wilson after Friday's second round of the US PGA BMW Championship.
Wilson, an American who has already won titles in Phoenix and Hawaii this year, shot a 66 to match the Englishman atop the leaderboard at 11-under par 131 after 36 holes at the penultimate event of the US PGA playoff series.
Rose opened with a 63. He birdied the par-4 third and answered a bogey at the par-4 seventh with back-to-back birdies to finish the front side.
He took another bogey at the par-4 13th but responded with an eagle at the par-5 15th and a birdie at the par-4 16th to claim the lead, only to stumble back with a bogey at the last.
Wilson opened with his lone bogey of the day, then birdied the par-4 fifth and ran off a streak of four birdies in a row ending at the par-5 11th before adding a final birdie at the par-5 15th.
American Webb Simpson, the overall points leader after a victory last week, stood third on 133, one stroke ahead of Australian John Senden, who fired a 66.
Thompson leads by 2
Teenager Lexi Thompson shot a 4-under 68 Friday to take the lead after the second round of the Navistar LPGA Classic.
The 16-year-old is at 10-under 134, two shots ahead of Stacy Lewis and Becky Morgan.
South Korea's Meena Lee, who came within one shot of matching the course record with an 8-under 64, is fourth at 7-under 137.
