SAINT-QUENTIN-EN-YVELINES, France (AP) -- England's David Lynn holed a bunker shot for birdie on the final hole for a 6-under 65 and a share of the second-round lead Friday in the French Open with Spanish qualifier Pablo Larrazabal.

Lynn and Larrazabal (70) had 7-under 135 totals on Le Golf National's Albatross Course.

"It was a pretty straightforward bunker shot, not very far, that came off perfect," Lynn said. "I just played solid."

England's Lee Westwood (68), Scotland's Colin Montgomerie (68), Spain's Ignacio Garrido (69), Argentina's Angel Cabrera (70) and Ireland's Peter Lawrie (71) were tied for third.

Larrazabal had four bogeys.

"After I made birdies on 3 and 4, I don't know why, I started to hit the ball really bad," Larrazabal said. "I couldn't keep the ball on the fairway."
