| 03 Nov 2017 20:08 |
| Shane Lowry fired in seven birdies to climb into contention at the halfway mark of the Turkish Open in Antalya. |
| The Offaly man’s round of 66 saw him jump up 10 places on the board and he trails runaway leader Nicolas Colsaerts, by six shots on eight-under-par. |
| Lowry bogeyed the second hole but then went on a red-hot streak, picking up shots on 3, 5, 7, 13, 14, 16 and 17. |
| Unfortunately, he failed to get up and down at the last and dropped back to share fourth place with three others. |
| It could have been better for the 30-year-old but he saw his tee shot on the 14th bounce off the pin. |

| Padraig Harrington, however, couldn’t add to his opening round of 65, which had him just one shot off the overnight lead. |
| The Dubliner was one over par at the end of his round with two birdies and three bogeys to his name. |
| Paul Dunne also had a mixed round, carding four birdies, including one at the last, and three bogeys. |
| As it stands: -14 Colsaerts -10 Pepperell -9 Aphibarnrat -8 Fitzpatrick -8 Lowry -8 Gallacher -8 Southgate Scores: https://t.co/55fcEUDd9F pic.twitter.com/gq9vcNETkL |
| He signed for a 70 and sits alongside Harrington on five under for the tournament. |
