Paul Lawrie Match Play 2015: Scores, Updated Bracket and Highlights from Friday

It was a strong day for the English on Friday at the 2015 Paul Lawrie Match Play tournament as four made the final 16, though James Morrison, Matthew Fitzpatrick and Graeme Storm failed to progress.

After an excellent victory in the first round, Paul Lawrie fell victim to compatriot Chris Doak as he bowed out of his own competition in a narrow match.

Here are the full results from Friday's action, and for the full tournament bracket, visit the European Tour's official website.

Lawrie began brightly as he birdied the third, but some excellent play from Doak saw him pull level and then ahead with birdies at the fourth and sixth.

The Scots alternated birdies for five holes, with Lawrie twice equalising on the seventh and ninth only for Doak to respond in kind on the eight and 10th.

Doak extended his lead on the 13th to two up, and though the host halved the deficit with a birdie on the 14th, Lawrie could not find his way back into the match as both players recorded pars for the remainder.

In a slight upset, Johan Carlsson knocked out No. 1 seed James Morrison in an exciting encounter.

The Swede raced into a two-shot lead as he hit three birdies in the first five holes to Morrison's one, and extended his lead further with birdies at the 10th, 11th and 13th.

Three consecutive birdies for Morrison then saw the Englishman roar back into contention. As the European Tour's official Twitter feed captured, Morrison's strong play in his late comeback demonstrated just why he was the top seed:

However, his hopes were quickly dashed when Carlsson hit this excellent chip at the 17th:

In one of the most fascinating matches of the day, American Peter Uihlein defeated Fitzpatrick in 19 holes.

The two players were evenly matched throughout and could not be separated after 18 holes.

Uihlein took a two-shot lead thanks to Fitzpatrick's bogey at the fifth and a birdie at the sixth, before Fitzpatrick levelled thanks to a birdie and then this incredible eagle at the 11th:

Fellow golfer Eddie Pepperell revealed he is a fan of the young Englishman:

"

You got to love young Matthew Fitzpatrick. Face like a puppy dog and a great game.

Uihlein gave away and then regained with a bogey and a birdie at the 12th and 13th, before another birdie apiece saw them all square after 18.

It was the American who won the decisive play-off hole, though, and he advances to the next round where he will face Tyrrell Hatton in what is sure to be one of the highlights of Saturday's action.

Here are the other matches to be played in Round 3:

Both Hatton and Uihlein are in excellent form, so expect a closely contested match that could easily go to 19 holes again.
