Barnet's Andrew Johnston looks likely to continue his weekend at Royal Troon after another two-under-par round at The Open.

The North Middlesex Golf Club member added to his intial round of 69 with another earlier today in awful conditions, and will almost certainly make it through the cut with just over half the field yet to finish their second round.

After two rounds, the 27-year-old now sits six shots off clubhouse leader Phil Mickelson, and is tied for seventh at the time of writing.

Two bogeys got his day off to a bad start but he followed up with three straight birdies, before holing another one to finish off the front nine two under par.

On the 11th hole, however, a triple bogey proved a thorn in his side, but another hat-trick of birdies towards the end of the course leave him in a sterling position in Scotland.
