Golf star Ludvig Åberg won the tournament last year. Now his compatriot Henrik Norlander can do the same.

The 37-year-old is in the top contention of the European Tour tournament in Crans Montana, Switzerland.

The Swede – who has limited playing rights on the PGA Tour and therefore played more in Europe this year – was on his way to a flawless round. But after three consecutive birdies on holes 14, 15, and 16, he got into trouble on the day's penultimate hole.

With a bogey on the 17th, he dropped a stroke, was –3 for the day, and is a total of nine strokes under par after two rounds.

Alex Fitzpatrick, England, tops the leaderboard at –10.

The second round is ongoing.
