Colin Montgomerie, the 2000 champion, shot a one-under 70 and is tied with Paul McGinley, who posted his second straight two-under 69 on Friday, at minus-four.
Overnight co-leader Kyron Sullivan only managed a three-over 74 in round two and shares fourth place with Thomas Bjorn (71), Zane Scotland (71) and Tom Whitehouse (69). The group finished 36 holes at three-under-par 139.
Khan began the second round on the 10th tee and wasted little time in breaking into red figures. He birdied the par-three 11th, then parred the final seven holes of his opening nine.
The Englishman started his second nine in style with a birdie at the par-four first. Khan parred his next four holes, but moved to the top of the leaderboard thanks to his play in the middle of his back nine.
