Slattery takes lead

Englishman Lee Slattery stormed into the lead at the Alfred Dunhill Championship, shooting a bogey-free round of 65 at Leopard Creek to move to six under for the tournament.

Playing the back nine first, the 29-year-old started slowly with two birdies before adding five more coming home to move one stroke clear of the field.

The other big mover in near perfect conditions was home favourite Ernie Els, who carded a three-under-par 69 to add to his opening 70.

However, things could have been much better for the big South African, who also picked up four bogeys.

England's Richard Bland shot a two-under 70 to move to five under alongside Els and overnight leader Sion Bebb.
