Round 2 Leaderboard Highlights:
Louis Oosthuizen has, unfortunately, become synonymous with near misses at major championships over the course of his career. The 2010 Open champion has six runner-up finishes since cradling that Claret Jug over a decade ago, so his contention at the 149th Open Championship at Royal St. George's is no surprise. What perhaps is a surprise, though, is that he's only held the 36-hole outright lead at a major one other time: that 2010 Open at St. Andrews. After shooting a 65 in Round 2 on Friday to follow his opening-round 64, Oosthuizen reset the Open 36-hole scoring record at 129. His 11-under mark leads Collin Morikawa by two and Jordan Spieth by three. Dustin Johnson is four off the lead, and Brooks Koepka and Jon Rahm are six behind. Golfers within six of Oosthuizen have a combined 11 majors to his one. Oosty will not only be battling himself and his own personal history at major championships but also some of the best champions the sport can conceivably conjure up to throw at him over the final two days of play.
