RAS AL KHAIMAH, United Arab Emirates — English golfer Marcus Armitage has retained the lead at the Ras Al Khaimah Championship but saw his advantage trimmed to two strokes after shooting 3-under 69 in the second round. The No. 324-ranked Armitage birdied his final two holes at Al Hamra Golf Club to stay on track for a first win since the European Open in 2021. Armitage was 12-under par heading into the weekend. Fellow Englishman Dan Brown (64) and Spain's Alejandro del Rey (66) were tied for second place.
