Two names at 10 under
Casey Jarvis and Antoine Rozner share the lead at the Genesis Championship after day two at Woo Jeong Hills Country Club in South Korea. Both sit on 10 under. Rozner got there with a 65, Jarvis with a 67.
Three strokes back, on 7 under, are Ryan Fox, Martin Couvra, Filippo Celli and Sanghun Shin. Eugenio Chacarra, who opened with a 72, answered with a 66 and now sits inside the top 15, within six strokes of the lead.
Rozner framed the week through the play-offs. “It would be a good bonus to play the Play-Offs,” he said. Jarvis kept it simple: “I felt like I’ve just been really solid.”

Why the Race to Dubai table matters here
This is the last event for players to qualify for the DP World Tour play-offs, so every shot has a price. Jarvis, a two-time DP World Tour winner this season, could move above Patrick Reed and Rory McIlroy into second place in the standings with a victory.
Fox is sixth in the rankings and is trying to close the gap on the leader, Chacarra, who is also the man to watch from inside the top 15 on the leaderboard.
The cut claims its victims
The other side of the week is the bottom of the table. Pablo Larrazabal missed the cut and lost his DP World Tour status, and he now hopes to keep fighting at Qualifying School next month. “This year has been tough,” he said.
Sebastian Soderberg also missed the cut. He was 101st and is projected to drop to 103rd. Kiradech Aphibarnrat withdrew injured and will not keep Category 10 status next season. Jason Scrivener, Zander Lombard and Ross Fisher missed the cut as well. Sean Crocker did make the weekend and is trying to climb from 103rd into the top 100.
