The joint overnight leader, Tom Lewis, chips from the rough onto the 6th green. He's in the hole for four - that's his second bogey of the day Photograph: Tom Jenkins for The Guardian

Rory McIlroy doesn't look best pleased with himself after a decent start to the day goes awry. The Northern Irishman slams his club after playing a poor pitch on to the 10th green where he makes his second bogey in three holes Photograph: Tom Jenkins for The Guardian

Lee Westwood, who carded one over yesterday, starts well with a birdie on the 1st. But he follows it up with bogeys at the 2nd and here at the 6th Photograph: Tom Jenkins for The Guardian

The likelihood of a Brit winning again this year seems hard to predict. While Lewis has been on the slide, the world No1 Luke Donald has found some form. Three birdies in the first four holes have compensated for his round of one over yesterday Photograph: Tom Jenkins for The Guardian

Westwood completes his opening nine with a birdie, double bogey, bogey. Not a man for consistency, evidently Photograph: Tom Jenkins for The Guardian

Nor is Darren Clarke. But an undulating round, which has included a double bogey, three bogeys, an eagle and four birdies, has left him in a great position with one hole remaining Photograph: Tom Jenkins for The Guardian

Looks like Daly's been given fashion tips to his rivals. YE Yang has gone for a two-tone T-shirt, electric blue trousers and a matching club. Perhaps if he'd spent more time worrying about his golf and less time worrying about colour-coordination, he wouldn't be trapped on the boundary at the back of the 18th Photograph: Tom Jenkins for The Guardian

Clarke soaks up the applause after his birdie at the 18th hands him a share of the lead at four under. Meanwhile, four successive bogeys have left Donald in danger of missing the cut. Other Brits in trouble include Westwood, Harrington and McDowell. McIlroy's round of 69 leaves him on level par Photograph: Tom Jenkins for The Guardian
