SANDWICH, England (Reuters) - Collin Morikawa has been making waves in his fledgling golf career and he was doing it again at Royal St George's on Friday in his first British Open.

The 24-year-old American, who won last year's PGA Championship, struck a series of pinpoint iron shots to pick up seven birdies in a sublime second-round 64 and open up a three-stroke lead on the field.
