"I have been playing pretty well and I have just trusted what I have been working on with my old coach two weeks ago," Boyd said.
"Before that I was a bit lost in too many thoughts and trying too many different things for a while and that is not something that you want to be doing in tournament golf. It is starting to pay off this week".
Gonnet is also chasing the title, he matched the scores and shared the leading position after the second round of the China Open.
The 29-year-old French professional golf player amazed the spectators on Thursday, by making seven impressive birdies and only one bogey till day-end.

Gonnet is playing well and delivering his best in the current year. He was very happy to see his name on top of the leaderboard.
“I played very well again today, even off the tee which is really good for me,” Gonnet said. “It’s good to be in the lead and the game is in good shape so I have a very good chance to win but I have to try and not think about it”.
Now, in the upcoming two rounds, both the professionals have a strong chance to win the glory of the co-sanctioned event. The only need of the hour is to compete well against each other.
