11– under par leads the way after Richard Bland's round of 64 today.
6 - birdies on the back nine for Bland saw him come home in just 30 shots.
31- out of 36 Greens in Regulation for the 43 year old.
8– birdies each for Alex Noren and Andrew 'Beef' Johnston, including four in the latter's final five holes.
133– Scott Jamieson’s lowest 36-hole total in 27 events this season.
117– Jamieson’s ranking in the Race to Dubai. A strong result this week would likely move him into the all-important top 110.

7 - of the ten players inside the top seven including ties hail from Britain - Bland, Johnston, Jamieson, Fleetwood, Wall, Wood and Hatton.
