Quartet tied after two rounds at Colonial
FORT WORTH — Danny Lee birdied the last hole for a 6-under-par 64 on Friday and a share of the second-round lead in the PGA tournament at Colonial with Kevin Kisner, Webb Simpson and Scott Piercy.
Kisner also had a birdie on his final hole, the ninth, for a second consecutive 67. Simpson, the 2012 U.S. Open champion, and Piercy each shot 66 to join the group at 6-under 134.
Masters champion Sergio Garcia (66) and fellow Spaniard Jon Rahm (69), who played in the same group, were at 5 under, along with England’s Paul Casey (66) and Sean O’Hair (68).
Defending champion Jordan Spieth (68) recovered from a bad start to avoid the danger of missing the cut for the third consecutive event and second week in a row. He was 5 under over his final 13 holes. In other golf news: • Vijay Singh shot a 4-under 68 in wind so strong that play was temporarily halted at the Senior PGA Championship and took a one-shot lead. Singh’s two-day total of 10-under 134 was one shot better than Billy Andrade, who also shot 68 at Trump National in Sterling, Va. The wind delay lasted 41 minutes and prevented the afternoon starters from finishing their second rounds.
