SAVANNAH, Ga., April 22 (UPI) -- Jay Haas shot a 4-under 68 Saturday to hold on to a two-stroke lead after two rounds of the Liberty Mutual Legends of Golf in Savannah, Ga.

Haas finished the day at 10-under 134. Craig Stadler moved into second place at 8-under 136 after a second-round 5-under 67.

Jerry Pate is one stroke further back at 137. NBC announcer Bob Murphy is fourth after his second straight 69.

Hale Irwin, the 2004 champion, shot 69 and shares fifth place with Allen Doyle and Peter Jacobsen at 139.

"I hit a lot of good shots out there today," said Haas. "I had a nice stretch of holes between 10 and 17. It was a good back nine except the bad seven-iron on the 18th. I can't be unhappy with 4-under though."

Tom Jenkins (69) and Mark Johnson (70) share eighth place at 140.
