Bae Sang-moon had a special visitor during his second round at the Fortinet Championship as he raced to the second position after 36 holes. The Korean golfer was accompanied by his dog, Latte, at Silverado.

Sang-moon carded a 6-under 66 on Friday, September 15, to finish at 11-under after 36 holes. He is placed second, just one stroke behind the lead halfway through the round.

The PGA Tour shared a video in which a 37-year-old Korean golfer was seen carrying his dog and giving a brief reaction to the camera before walking away.

Sangmoon is a passionate dog lover, which is quite clear on his social media profile. The golfer has numerous photographs of dogs on his Instagram account and even maintains a dedicated highlight for his dog, Latte, where he regularly posts recent photographs.

Sang-moon's second round 66 consisted of seven birdies and two bogeys. Fellow Korean Kim Seong-hyeon held the top spot after shooting a 67 on Friday. Teeing off from the tenth hole, he made six birdies in the second round, and the lone bogey came on par 4, hole 13.

Seong-Hyeon was joined by Sahith Theegala, who posted a low 64 to jump 12 spots to the top. His second round consisted of seven birdies and an Eagle.

When will Bae Sang-moon resume playing at the Fortinet Championship on Saturday?
