Søren Kjeldsen holds a narrow advantage at the Volvo Masters after the rain hit second round was completed. The Dane hit a level par 71 to stay six under at Valderrama, two shots ahead of Sergio Garcia, Anthony Wall and Lee Westwood. Westwood still hopes to have something to shout about before he has his tonsils out on Monday - a second European Order of Merit Title. The Englishman needs to win the season ending event to have a chance of pipping Swede Robert Karlsson and a brilliant finish to his second round re-ignited his challenge. The man who ended Colin Montgomerie's seven year reign as number one in 2000 played the last 11 holes in six under par to climb into a tie for second place. If Westwood wins the tournament tomorrow Karlsson will have to be second or third to retain top spot on the money list, but a second successive 73 left him joint 22nd as the players went out again for the third round.

Padraig Harrington and Miguel Angel Jimenez also had a chance of The Harry Vardon Trophy entering the event, but Harrington's hopes were hanging by a thread at five over - he needs a top two finish - and those of Jiménez, who required victory, looked over after he completed a round of 80 for 11 over. Less than four hours' play had been possible on Friday and with more rain falling as the tournament resumed at 8.30am there remained the possibility that it might have to be cut to 54 or even 36 holes.
