DAVID LAW LEADS BY TWO ON MIDDLE EAST-NORTH AFRICA TOUR

David Law, runner-up in last week's MENA Tour event, looks as if he is going to go one better this week in the Ras Al Khaimall Classic at the Tower Links Golf Club.
The 22-year-old Aberdonian leads by two shots on nine-under-par 135 after rounds of 67 and 68.
He had a five-birdie, bogey-free opening round and followed that up by overtaking the record-setting first-round leader, South African Tyler Hog
It was Law who was a model of consistency. “Overall, I played pretty well. In fact, I went six-under after 12 holes, but dropped a shot each on the 14th and 18th which was a bit disappointing,” said Law.
“I am looking forward to the final round tomorrow. If I can keep the momentum going, I think I stand a good chance of winning the title,” who finished runner-up to Zane Scotland in last week’s Shaikh Maktoum Dubai Open.
“I feeling good about my game and, hopefully, I will be able to get the job done this time around,” said Law, who turned professional in 2011.
“I have been in this situation quite a few time and know what to expect,” said the talented youngster from Aberdeen.
England’s Yasin Ali made the biggest move of the day, as a 5-under-par 67 put him on the front page the leaderboard
arty, with six birdies in his bogey-free first 12 holes in the second round.
Law birdied the second, fifth, sixth, 10th, 11th and 12th before cooling off slightly with bogeys at the 14th and 18th in halves of 33 and 35.

Hogarty and Andreas Finn (Sweden) are Law's closest rivals on the 137 mark. Hogarty has shot 65-72 and Finn 67-70
