Fasth holds share of lead

European Tour Member Niclas Fasth and Mitchell Brown share the halfway lead at eight under par following a weather disrupted second round at the Johor Open.

Swede Fasth shot a four under par 68 to join Brown at the top of the leaderboard after the Australian had earlier carded a 69.

The duo lead Thongchai Jaidee by a stroke after the Thai golfer recorded an impressive 66 with compatriot Thaworn Wiratchant in fourth on six under.

Fasth sank four birdies on the front nine and is yet to drop a shot through 36 holes but the 36 year old felt his day could have been even better.

"I played very well on the front nine but a bit scruffy on the back nine," said Fasth.

"I had loads of birdie chances but, yet again, I would have hoped for a few more to drop. I guess I'm not alone in that. I'm not too far off.

"I'm getting happier with my game as we have progressed and if I can keep improving, I have a good chance."
