American Ally Ewing admitted she had been inspired by Brian Harman's Open triumph as she mirrored his progress towards a maiden major title in the AIG Women's Open.

Ewing, who held a one-shot lead following an opening 68 completed late on Thursday, was among the early starters on Friday and stormed clear of the field with a birdie on the third and four in a row from the sixth to be out in 30.
