Fraser keeps lead through two rounds at Rio Olympics

After briefly losing his lead Friday, Australia’s Marcus Fraser birdied the 18th hole to go up by one through 36 holes in men’s golf. Here’s where things stand as we head into the weekend in Rio:

Leaderboard: Fraser (-10), Thomas Pieters (-9), Henrik Stenson (-8), Gregory Bourdy (-6), Justin Rose (-6)

What it means: Up three to start the day, Fraser cruised along largely unchallenged after three birdies across his first 11 holes. But bogeys at Nos. 12 and 16 combined with the round of the day from Belgium’s Pieters cost Fraser his solo lead after 17 holes.
