KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - American Pat Perez returned to the course with a hot putter after a lengthy delay due to a storm, carding a seven-under-par 65 to claim a one-stroke lead in the second round of the $7 million CIMB Classic in Kuala Lumpur on Friday.

The 41-year-old was one-under when he made the turn but then scorched the course by picking up six birdies on his final eight holes to end with a two-day total of 131.
