First-round leader Justin Rose of England maintained the top spot through his second round of the Masters by shooting 1-under-par 70 on Friday at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Ga.

Rose is 8 under for the tournament, completing his round with a one-shot edge on Bryson DeChambeau, who had five holes still to play. Rose had four birdies and three bogeys.

DeChambeau, benefitting from a bunker shot that resulted in a birdie on No. 4, played the front nine in 4 under.

South Korea’s Sungjae Im reached 6 under for the tournament through 14 holes before he recorded a bogey on Nos. 15 and 16.

Matt McCarty notched four consecutive birdies (Nos. 6-9) on the way to 67 as one of the second round’s early finishers. McCarty, in the Masters for the first time, had a horrid start at 3 over through two holes. Even with a bogey on the last hole, he’s at 5 under for the tournament.

Rose completed 16 holes before defending champion Scottie Scheffler began his round. Scheffler started the day three strokes behind Rose among a group in second place and had a birdie on the second hole.
