Coltart hits the front in Qatar

Former champion Andrew Coltart claimed the outright lead at the Qatar Masters this morning after picking up two shots during his second round at an overcast Doha Golf Club.

The Scot, who claimed the inaugural Pearl trophy 11 years ago, shared the overnight lead at six-under-par with Ryder Cup duo Henrik Stenson and Miguel Angel Jimenez but claimed sole possession after two quick birdies in four holes around the turn.
