Reed maintains advantage

Victorian Heath Reed is four shots clear of the field after the second round of the South Australian PGA Championship. Reed shot a six-under-par round of 61 to finish the day at 14-under, four strokes clear of fellow Victorian Heat D&aposaltera. D&aposaltera matched Reed&aposs round of 61 to sit in outright second place, while big-hitting New South Welshman Kurt Barnes is in a tie for third place at nine-under. Barnes is tied with Clint Rice and Raffael Toperoso, while Adam Porker, Andrew Dodt, Andrew Pitt and veteran Stuart Bouvier are a further shot adrift at eight-under. Eight golfers are in joint 10th position at seven-under, with former Australian Masters winner Craig Spence and local hope Jason Norris among them.
