Chopra leads as Woods improves

Sweden’s Daniel Chopra led world number three Vijay Singh by two at the halfway stage of the Cialis Western Open in Illinois. But not for the first time it is Tiger Woods who has the biggest spotlight on him.

Woods is seven strokes behind and only 35th, but thanks to a second-round 67 he has two more rounds to build confidence ahead of his defence of the British Open championship at Hoylake.
