stroke lead at the Wales Open Friday after shooting a 5-under par 66 in the second round at Celtic Manor. Overnight leader Lee Slattery of England could only manage a level par round of 72 to remain at 4 under on 138 in second. Fabrizio Zanotti of Paraguay holds a share of third place after shooting a 69 along with Thailand's Thongchai Jaidee (68) and England's Chris Wood (67). The 31-year-old Fisher said he was inspired by his return to the Twenty Ten course, where he was a part of Europe's 2010 Ryder Cup victory over the US. European Ryder Cup captain Jose Maria Olazabal missed the cut set at five over, shooting a 75 to finish on 9 over for the tournament. Olazabal's frustration was evident when he handed his driver to a young boy in the crowd after hitting his tee shot on the 18th into thick rough. Olazabal's playing partner, 1999 British Open winner Paul Lawrie, enjoyed a more successful day, shooting a 2 under 69 to move to 1 over. Italy's Edoardo Molinari (71) and Sweden's Anders Hansen (72) also missed the cut, as did 2005 US Open winner Michael Campbell (75).
