Golf-Bogey-free Prayad grabs two-stroke lead at Queen's Cup (Reuters)

BANGKOK, June 19 (Reuters) - Thai Prayad Marksaeng made the most of a strong start in the second round of the Queen's Cup with a bogey-free six-under-par 65 on Friday to take a two-stroke lead at the halfway stage.

Starting on the back nine, Prayad sunk a 30-foot birdie on his first hole of the day and then picked up another shot at the next to boost his chances of reclaiming the trophy he won in 2013.

The 49-year-old Thai moved to eight-under with Canadian Richard Lee two shots adrift in second after a round of 67.
