Green joins Goosen at top

World number eight Retief Goosen remained cool in the desert heat to stay top of the Commercialbank Qatar Masters’ leaderboard at the end of his second round - but was joined by Australian Richard Green.

Goosen looked on course to at least equal his first-round score of 65 after carding four birdies on his outward nine at the Doha Golf Club, but just one more birdie and a bogey coming home meant he shot a four-under-par 68. That left him 11 under going into the weekend.
