Brooks Koepka is the man to beat at the US PGA Championship as he continues to dismantle the field at Bethpage.

Koepka followed his course record of 63 on Thursday with a second round of 65 on Friday for a halfway total of 128, two shots better than the previous lowest in major history shared by Nick Faldo, Brandt Snedeker, Martin Kaymer, Jordan Spieth and Gary Woodland.

At 12 under par the 29-year-old enjoyed a seven-shot lead over Spieth and Adam Scott, surpassing the previous biggest 36-hole lead in tournament history of five shots set by Nick Price in 1994.
