LAST UPDATE | 35 mins ago

SHANE LOWRY HAS slipped back after carding a one-under 69 in the second round of the RBC Canadian Open, while Leona Maguire is eight shots off the lead at the Dow Championship in Missouri.

After a brilliant opening-round 65 to leave him one off the clubhouse lead on Thursday, Lowry is currently in a share of 13th place on six-under at the midway point in TPC Toronto.

Lowry is four shots behind the current American leader Ben James who is on 10-under.

The Offaly native started on the 10th and was on even par until a brace of bogeys on 17 and 18 left on two-over at the turn. He brought himself back to par with an eagle at the first and added a birdie on the eighth to end his day on one-under.

Séamus Power is in danger of missing the cut after a second round of 68 which puts him at one-under, one shy of the projected two-under cut mark.

Power had a bogey-free round which also included birdies on the third and 14th holes, but his opening round of 71 could mean he will miss out on competing this weekend.

Pádraig Harrington finishes up on three-over after rounds of 73 and 70. His second round included two birdies and two bogeys.

On the LPGA, Leona Maguire and Lindy Duncan are eight shots off the lead at the Dow Championship. After recording a 68 on Thursday, the pair added a 69 in the second round of the alternate shot event.

Their second round included a bogey at the eighth along with birdies on the 10th and 12th holes to leave them on three-under for the tournament.

The team of Celine Borge-Polly Mack, and Ayaka Furue-Yuna Nishimura currently share the lead on 11-under.
