Harrington still in Charge at Bridgestone.

padraig Harrington was in good form as he held on to the lead after two rounds of the BRIDGESTONE INTERNATIONAL at FIRESTONE COUNTRY CLUB in OHIO.
After his best score this year in the opening round of 64,he was a bit more conservative during his second round.He only made 2 birdies and one bogey for a 69 and with a -7 total he is one shot clear from Tim Clarke 66/68-6.
They are looking over their shoulder at World No1 Tiger Woods who is in 13th place after rounds of 68/70 -2 and waiting for him to pounce.

Darren Clarke is the next best of the Irish. He needed two late birdies at the 16th and 17th to leave him in 36th place after rounds of 71,70.Graeme McDowell is in 58th position with scores of 73/71.Rory McIlroy who made 7 bogies the first day of 75,only made one bogey in his level par round of 70 and remains on +5 and in 63rd place.
Irish Open winner,Shane Lowry has found the going difficult and is 78th out of 79 players on +16 after matching rounds of 78.
