Matt Wallace added a second spherical 65 to his opening 66 to take a share of the halfway lead in the Mexico Open.
The Englishman performed his final 9 holes in 30, together with an eagle three on the sixth gap in between a pair of birdies, as he moved to 11-under-par.
He is joined by Finland’s Sami Valimaki, who shot 67, American Jake Knapp and Mexico’s Alvaro Ortiz, who each carded a 64.
They are one shot forward of the first-round chief Erik van Rooyen from South Africa, who added a 69 to his opening 63 because of a pair of late birdies.
There is then a two-shot hole again to American duo Andrew Novak and Mark Hubbard with defending champion Tony Finau amongst an 18-strong group 5 strokes off the tempo.
Scotland’s Robert MacIntyre moved to five-under-par with a 66, one forward of England’s Aaron Rai and Irish veteran Padraig Harrington.
