Thailand's Sarit Suwannarut leads the International Series Philippines at the halfway stage, topping the leaderboard ahead of a number of star names and LIV Golfers including Dustin Johnson and Patrick Reed.
Suwannarut is 14-under-par after 36-holes, four strokes clear of Miguel Tabuena and Kazuki Higa.
Reed is in position to challenge for his second Asian Tour title this weekend
He is one stroke ahead of South Africans Dean Burmester and Charl Schwartzel, although their Stinger GC Louis Oosthuizen was one of the big names to miss the cut.
Kevin Na, Peter Uihlein and Marc Leishman are two strokes further back at five-under-par and within touching distance of contention, one ahead of former World No.1 and two-time Major champion Dustin Johnson.
Johnson, playing in his first International Series event of the season as he tries to keep his 10-year winning streak alive, started well with a four-under-par 67 but dropped back on Friday following a 73.
He will be hoping to go low this weekend to try and catch the in-form Suwannarut, who has gone T9-T11-4 in his last three starts.
Overall, 11 LIV players made the cut including reserve Max Rottluff, with seven missing the weekend - including the relegated Anthony Kim and three of the 54-hole league's reserve players.
