TROON, Scotland -- A look at the second round Friday in the British Open at Royal Troon Golf Club (all times EDT):LEADING: Phil Mickelson made his first two bogeys of the tournament but still shot a 2-under 69. He reached the midway point at 10-under 132.TRAILING: Henrik Stenson was one shot back after posting a 65, the best round of the day.LUCK OF THE DRAW: The morning starters caught a break with the weather, which turned especially nasty in the afternoon. The top 14 players on the leaderboard all came from the morning wave. Of the 20 players who broke par, only four started after lunchtime.MISSING THE CUT: Former Open champions Ernie Els and Louis Oosthuizen were among those missing the cut. Els could have made it to the weekend with a par at the final hole, but the Big Easy took bogey after driving it into a fairway bunker. Oosthuizen, who lost in a three-way playoff last year at St. Andrews and was No. 14 in the world, shot 83. He was the highest-ranked player to be sent home.GETTING THROUGH: Mickelson and Rickie Fowler both made the cut in a major for the first time this year.SHOT OF THE DAY: Mickelson nearly holed out his tee shot at the 123-yard eighth hole, known as the Postage Stamp. The ball rolled right up next to the cup, leaving Lefty with a tap-in birdie that was roughly the length of a postage stamp.KEY STATISTIC: Of the eight players who have shot 63 in the opening round of a major championship, Mickelson was only the third to break par in the second round.NOTEWORTHY: Billy Horschel followed up a 67 on Thursday with an 85, the highest score of the second round. The 18-shot differential was the biggest meltdown in Open history over the first two rounds.QUOTEWORTHY: Youve got to understand that some people get lucky, some people get unlucky. Youve got to take what you get and roll with it and try to do the best job you can. -- Jason Day, on the much tougher conditions that faced those teeing off in the afternoon.SATURDAY FORECAST: Mostly dry with wind gusts up to 20 mph.TELEVISION: Golf Channel (4-7 a.m.); NBC (7 a.m.-2:30 p.m.).FEATURED GROUPS: 10:20 a.m. -- Henrik Stenson, Phil Mickelson; 10:10 a.m. -- Keegan Bradley, Soren Kjeldsen; 9:10 a.m. -- Dustin Johnson, Francesco Molinari.

Peter Holland and Brad Staubitz were sent to Toronto on Saturday as the Maple Leafs traded defenceman Jesse Blacker and draft picks to the Anaheim Ducks. Faf du Plessis has distanced the South Africa team from former captain Graeme Smiths warning that Australia is on the wane following a string of defeats. Smith listed loss of confidence, the rotation policy, a packed schedule and the struggles of Steven Smith to assert himself as a leader as heaping pressure on the hosts, but du Plessis would not be drawn into the war of words.I dont know too much about it. I just read something about the culture and Im always of the position if you dont know exactly whats going on, you cant comment on that, du Plessis said. I dont know enough about the Australian culture, so I cant comment on it. From the outside, it seems the same as always.Steven Smith echoed that opinion and insisted his team remained unaffected by the issues Graeme Smith mentioned. Im not sure what Graeme Smith knows about Australian cricket, Smith said. He obviously wasnt involved in it. I think the teams in a good place at the moment, weve got a good culture, built on constant improvement and getting better. The guys are in a good place, were a tight-knit group and were ready to hopefully turn this around this week.On Wednesday evening, when Graeme Smith was inducted as a Bradman Honouree at the SCG - alongside Bill Lawry, who was the last Australia captain to lead the side to a home series win after losing the first Test in 1968 - he seemed to sympathise with Steven Smiths attempts to forge his own captaincy style. I look at him and you kind of think hes trying to figure a lot of stuff out at the moment, Graeme Smith said. But as a leader, I think you need to understand that for yourself about who you are and thats the only time you can really get your team to play with that personality. I think hes trying to figure that all out at the moment.dddddddddddd It certainly looks that way and he looks a bit lost.Steven Smith admitted he expected to come under criticism, given the teams performance and hopes. Ive seen a lot of the criticism and I guess when youre losing cricket games that sort of criticism is warranted so weve got to try and turn it around and play the way that Australia does best and thats by winning games of cricket in Australia, he said. Some of the naysaying has come from within. Shane Warne has been among those who have questioned Smiths tactics, particularly on the third morning of the Perth Test when Nathan Lyon was not used at all. South Africa added 118 runs in that session and lost just one wicket to bat Australia out of the match and Warne believes Smith could have done more to make inroads in that period.Smith stuck to his guns and maintained that he was hoping to make use of reverse swing. Warneys entitled to his opinion, but I stand by the way I did things, he said. We saw in that game that the reverse swing was the biggest player in the game and it was the decision to be made whether the quicks were going to do the job and get the ball reversing.Despite that, Australias captain conceded his team had underperformed but said they had done enough work to be ready for a better show in Hobart. Weve not been good enough and I guess for me its about making sure that the guys are upbeat and ready for the challenge out there in the middle, he said. Weve prepared very well like we have for every Test match. The guys feel like they are in a good place so its about going out there and making sure that we get the job done. ' ' '
