Goosen clear leader but McGinley stays in hunt

EUROPEAN number one Retief Goosen stamped his authority on the 34th and final Lancome Trophy to open up a commanding lead in Paris.

Goosen clear leader but McGinley stays in hunt

World number 12 Goosen added a second round 65 to his opening 63 for a 14 under par halfway total of 128 at St Nom-la-Breteche.

The former US Open champion leads by four shots from Spain’s Carlos Rodiles, runner-up here last year, and Belgium youngster Nicolas Colsaerts, with Ryder Cup hero Paul McGinley a shot further back. Colin Montgomerie made the cut with just a shot to spare, but Lee Westwood bogeyed the last to miss out by one in his first event since ending his three-year victory drought in Munich a fortnight ago.
