Here is everything you need to know from round two at the 2021 Hero Open.

Suri throwing darts

American Julian Suri struggled to get going in the first round but he definitely worked his way back into contention to make the cut line for the weekend. Starting on the back nine, he birdied the 15th before dropping a shot at the 16th hole. However, he produced this tee shot at the 17th for his second birdie. He carded a three under par 69 on Friday to sit at level par but could not sneak into the third round.

Slam dunk for Fisher

Oli Fisher, who was the first player on the European Tour to shoot a round of 59 at the 2018 Portugal Masters, struggled during his first round in Fife but produced a brilliant chip in at the 15th on Friday for an eagle two.

Walters' monster putt

Justin Walters set the clubhouse target at 12 under par after the South African carded an eagle, seven birdies and one dropped shot in a brilliant 64 in round two. He was eventually overtaken by Dane Lucas Bjerregaard but the 40-year-old was happy with his display. He said: "I putted really well, I just did everything well and was able to get through the tough holes and the holes you could get after, I did. A couple of bonuses here and there, but overall I just held my mental side of the game." Talking about a couple of bonuses, how about this putt to climb to the top of the leaderboard?

Henson's crazy journey

American Berry Henson revealed after a second successive 67 that he was an Uber driver just five weeks ago to keep himself occupied during the coronavirus pandemic. The 42-year-old is five shots off the lead at ten under par and opened up about his experience off the course. He said: "I haven’t played much golf in the last two years. Shoot, I was driving Uber five weeks ago. So to be out here competing on the European Tour…I was driving Uber and now this week people are watching me play golf. I’m just enjoying being out here." Superb effort, Berry.

Bjerregaard bursts clear after birdie blitzes

Calum Hill's course record at Fairmont St Andrews lasted all of one day thanks to the stunning effort of Bjerregaard. The Dane, who started on the back nine, rolled in 11 birdies - including a stunning finish of six straight gains and a par - and one dropped shot to card a 62 and lead the Scot by two shots. The last of those birdies was a huge 69 foot effort and the two time European Tour winner admired the short stick. He said: "My putter might be the most valuable thing in Scotland right now. I’ve never putted like that and I’m not sure I’ve seen anyone putt like that. That was pretty special, I’m a happy man right now. I guess I got lucky and missed in the correct spots and managed to hit some good iron shots out of there and putted well. It was definitely the putter. I think I had about 20 putts today - that helps."
