Englishmen Graeme Storm and Steve Webster grabbed a share of the lead after the second round of the Czech Open on Friday.

Storm carded a second successive 68 to be eight-under par for the tournament with four impressive birdies on his way out after starting at the tenth.

Meanwhile, 34-year-old Webster added a round of 70 to his opening 66 with a low point being a double bogey six at the 14th. But five birdies then kept him in contention for the weekend.

"I thought I could shoot three or four under a day because the weather is perfect," said Storm.

"Although it is a little tricky with the wind changing all over the place. If I can stick to that that is my goal."

Webster added: "I'm looking forward to playing at the weekend. I've played good this year - a couple of seconds so I'm knocking on the door. If you keep knocking, it will open."

One shot off the pace are England's John Bickerton and Sam Little, Spain?s Ignacio Garrido and Dutch duo Maarten Lafeber and Robert Jan Derksen.
