A second round of 71 has Brendan in 32nd position at the completion of 36 holes at the Casio World Open.

Brendan finds himself eight shots from the lead of Shigeki Maruyama and Koumei Oda but he has at least recovered from his missed cut last week at the Dunlop Phoenix and now has a chance to make progress over the final two rounds ahead of next week's Japan Series event in Tokyo.
