Shane Lowry shares top spot with five rivals at Arnold Palmer Invitational in Florida

First-round leader Shane Lowry is part of a sextet sharing top spot at the halfway point of the Arnold Palmer Invitational in Florida after carding a round of 71 to move to seven under par.

Lowry, who opened with a sizzling 66, recorded five birdies and four bogeys at Bay Hill - a course which has previously proven a bete noire for the Offaly man.

Brian Harman, Hideki Matsuyama, Russell Henley, Scottie Scheffler and Wyndham Clark also sit atop a congested leaderboard, with the latter's 66 the lowest round of the day.
