ISPS HANDA UK Championship R2 - Justin Walters holds on to lead

South Africa's Justin Walters started his second round with a three shot lead after a brilliant 64 on Thursday. He held on to his lead in spite of further heavy rain and a lengthy delay at the Belfry, making an impressive par save on his last hole to get to nine under.


"It's quite special, today a year ago I lost my dad and I've just got quite a sombre, relaxed approach at the moment," he said. "Whatever comes my way, comes my way.

"When something good happens, smile and enjoy it. That's got me through some tough moments already this week in terms of the situations I've found myself in. I plan to continue that on the weekend.


"A few months ago I wasn't sure if we would even get any tournaments to play in, and now I have the lead going in to the weekend in a tournament at an iconic golf course. I don't think you can ask for more than that."

Frenchman Benjamin Hebert came closest to challenging him after a 69, one clear of England's Paul Waring who fired a 67.
