Anirban Lahiri savoured another bogey-free day to add a second successive three-under 67 to be placed Tied-38th at the halfway stage of the Wyndham Championship, here.

Lahiri, who needs a very good result this week to find his way back into the Play-offs beginning next week, had three birdies and no bogeys in his 67 for a total of six-under 134.

He had a great day, finding 17 of the 18 greens. He also had 11 of the 14 fairways. However most of his iron shots were in the 15-28 feet range and twice were 45 and 55 feet.

But he did well to get his first putts inside five-six feet for par or birdie. Only on the 12th, he needed to hole a 13-foot for par.

Lahiri's first birdie was on the 529-yard par-5 fifth when he hit the green in two and two putted for birdie. On the par-4 11th, Lahiri's 171-yard approach to 4 feet, set himself up for the second birdie.

On the 545-yard par-5 15th hole, Lahiri reached the green in three and holed a three-foot putt for birdie to get to three-under for the round.

Meanwhile Korea's Byeong Hun An stayed in first place, following up a first round of 62 with a 65. He is now 13-under and one clear of Brice Garnett (64-64).

First round co-leader, Sungjae Im, along with Webb Simpson, Adam Svensson, Patton Kizzire, Mackenzie Hughes and Josh Teater are tied for third at 11-under.
