The 20-year-old started the day three shots behind overnight leaders Liang Wen-chong and Richard Sterne but carded a five-under-par 65 to join compatriot Oliver Wilson, South Africa's Louis Oosthuizen and Chawalit Plaphol of Thailand at eight under.

Fisher picked up birdies at the second, fourth and sixth and added two more coming home in a flawless display.

"It is very good," said Fisher. "I played very solidly and I am in a good position going into the weekend."

Also looking for his first win on the European Tour is Wilson, who lost out in a play-off to Sergio Garcia at the recent HSBC Champions.

Wilson carded six birdies and two bogeys for a second consecutive 66, and the Ryder Cup player said: "I'm obviously pretty happy with the first two days. It has gone according to plan so far."

Colin Montgomerie is looking to secure his second victory in Hong Kong and ensured he remains in contention with a 65.
