Poulter five shots clear

Ian Poulter established a five-shot lead at the half-way point of the weather-interrupted Barclays Singapore Open today after blitzing a flawless seven-under-par 64 second round at Sentosa Golf Cub.

Daniel Chopra had set the clubhouse lead last night at seven-under-par following a bogey free six under 65, but was eclipsed by the brilliant Poulter and the Swede was forced to settle for a share of second with qualifier Chan Yih-shin of Chinese Taipei, who was also bogey free for his 68.
