Round 1, Round 3, Round 4
Peter Lonard and Phillip Price share the lead at the Staysure PGA Seniors Championship at the halfway point at London Golf Club.
The Australian, who is making his first Staysure Tour appearance outside of the Senior Majors, recorded an eight under par round of 64, one shot away from course-record, to top the leaderboard ahead of compatriot and overnight leader David McKenzie early on day two.
However, Welshman Price made six birdies on his back nine to sign for a round of 66 to separate the Aussie pair and join Lonard at the top of the leaderboard at the halfway stage of the championship.
Lonard, a winner on the US PGA Tour in 2005, carded a bogey-free front nine, making the turn at four under par, before returning to the clubhouse in 32 strokes, which included three birdies in his final four holes with a final gain coming on the 18th hole.
With nine birdies and only one dropped shot to follow his opening round of 69, Lonard was delighted with his work on day two at the European Tour Destinations venue.

โIt was quite enjoyable for once,โ he said. โYesterday I got a little lucky and shot three under but didnโt really play that well. Today I drove it on the fairways which gave me a lot of chances and I played pretty well.
โI hit all the greens on the front nine. I was putting really well and holed a couple of putts. On the back nine I only missed one green and didnโt get up-and-down, which was a bit disappointing, but I holed some good putts when I needed to. The course is as benign as it was going to be today, so I figured it was possible to shoot a good score.
โAll of us have been around the block for a long time and we know there is a long way to go. Weโre all good mates and some of the European Tour guys I met 30 plus years ago.
โItโs a great opportunity this week to; number one โ play, number two โ play for some money, and number three โ catch up with some of the guys Iโve known for years.โ
Price has finished inside the top ten on five occasions this year, including a runner-up result in Switzerland, and his second round of 66 gave him the chance to be in the mix once again.
โIโm very pleased with today,โ he said. โI was a bit quiet on the front side and went out level par and things werenโt really happening, but to shoot six under on the back side was great.
โIโve been playing pretty well most of the year. Iโve been playing consistently but not great at any point, so hopefully thatโs going to start this week.
โI hope I can be in the hunt and give myself a chance and hopefully at the right time I start to play properly on the last day and shoot a good enough score.โ
A shot behind the pair is McKenzie who continued his form from the opening round with a three under par round of 69, to remain in touch with his fellow countryman and Price. While PGA professional Tim Milford recorded a stunning round of 65, seven under par, to sit three strokes off the lead in a share of third place alongside recent WINSTONgolf Senior Open champion Clark Dennis.
The third round begins at 8:30am local time with the leading pair teeing off at midday.
