Callum Tarren has taken the solo lead! The Englishman birdies the third.

Fitzpatrick birdies the par-5 8th. It’s been a difficult nine for him with bogeys on 2, 3 and 4 but he’s recovered with a pair of birdies and is back to -2 for the tournament.

Collin Morikawa and Jon Rahm are both well-poised at -1 as they get their second rounds underway. Morikawa hits a perfect drive straight down the middle but the defending champion’s slices right and he’ll need to rely on a kind lie from there.

It’s looking as though the cut line will be +4 at the moment if scoring dips slightly in the afternoon wave as expected.

Tony Finau has just made a bogey on his final hole to finish on +5 and won’t be here for the weekend. Other well-known players set to miss out include Tommy Fleetwood, Shane Lowry, Louis Oosthuizen and Viktor Hovland.

Callum Tarren was very much a surprise figure at the top of the leaderboard yesterday. He’s just got his second round underway, but if you want to know more about the Englishman’s roundabout route to the US Open, here’s an interview from 2018:

There are less than 40 minutes until Rory McIlroy gets his second round underway and he is likely to still find himself in a share of the lead when he does so. There are several big-name players who’ve made significant moves in the morning wave, though, including world No 1 Scottie Scheffler, who has just tapped in for a round of 67.

There’s finally something to smile about for Phil Mickelson after such a torrid birthday. He rolls in back-to-back birdies at 5 and 6 but, with just three holes left to play, the 52-year-old has no chance whatsoever of making the cut.

Koepka hits a magnificent shot out of the second cut after pushing his drive right at 17. He can’t take advantage though and a 15ft putt just stays high of the hole. He stays at level par for the tournament.

The world No 1 moves into a share of the lead. Scheffler hit a fine approach into the par-3 16th and holes the birdie putt from 10ft.

It’s an unfortunate finish for Daffue at the last. He catches his bunker shot thin and it flies way over the back of the green. He can’t get up and down from there and that’s a double for the South African, who at one stage held a two-shot lead before going five-over-par on the back-nine. He finishes with a 72.
