Zimbabwe’s Brendon de Jonge and American Webb Simpson share the lead after day two of the Greenbrier Classic at White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia.

De Jonge, who finished third in the event’s inaugural running here 12 months ago, fired a three-under-par 67 to move to seven under par, while Simpson added 68 to his opening round 65 to sit on the same score.

Former US Masters champion Trevor Immelman, who led overnight, shot a level par 70 to leave himself just one behind the lead.

Britain’s Brian Davis birdied five of his last nine holes for a scintillating 64 to trail by two shots, level with Americans Gary Woodland (70), Michael Letzig (66), Scott Stallings (65) and Derek Lamely (70).
