Rose grabs 1-shot lead after 2nd round of Hong Kong Open (The Associated Press)

HONG KONG (AP) -- Justin Rose shot a 4-under 66 to grab a one-shot lead after the second round of the Hong Kong Open on Friday despite making his first bogey of the tournament on the penultimate hole.

Rose was on his way to a second straight error-free performance at the Fanling Course but bounced back from his late bogey with a birdie at the last hole to move to 9-under 131.

''I'm in a wonderful position going into the weekend,'' Rose said. ''I played a clean round yesterday but today it was a bit more of a struggle and I made a few mistakes and was happy to salvage par quite a few times.
