SHANGHAI — Julien Quesne shot a 5-under 67 Friday to take a one-stroke lead over defending champion Alexander Levy and Peter Uihlein after the second round at the Volvo China Open.
The Frenchman, a two-time winner on the European Tour, had six birdies and one bogey for an 8-under 136 overall score.
"We had less wind today so it was a little bit easier," Quesne said. "I don't miss many shots so I was very confident."
Levy (68) was also playing confidently, making three straight birdies on the back nine to take a one-stroke lead at 9 under.
