Jaeger\u2019s 64 was the low round of the day at the TPC Craig Ranch, and Hoge shot 66.<\/p>\n<p>Zach Bauchou (66) was 16 under, one shot ahead of Brooks Koepka (66) and three others. Koepka, who opened with a 63, is looking for his first win since returning to the PGA Tour from LIV Golf.<\/p>\n<p>Kim, the field\u2019s second highest-ranked player behind Scheffler at No. 24, was in position for a 59 in the second round but had a bogey at 18 that forced him to settle for 60.<\/p>\n<p>His five-shot lead was tied for the second-biggest on tour through 36 holes this season behind Rory McIlroy\u2019s six-shot edge when he defended his Masters championship in April.<\/p>\n<p>It was gone by the 11th hole.<\/p>\n<p>Three bogeys in a span of four holes \u2014 all on putts inside 10 feet \u2014 dropped the four-time tour winner into a tie with Clark at 18 under. Clark had earlier pulled within a stroke with a short eagle putt on the par-5 ninth.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/raleighmovingnews.com\/?p=1238\">Russell clashes with Mercedes teammate Antonelli in Canadian GP sprint win<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Clark took the lead a scrambling birdie at the par-5 12th, making a 15-foot putt after a bunker shot with his right foot in the grass, his flexed right knee almost touching the ground.<\/p>\n<p>Kim, Scheffler and Clark were tied at 19 under when Kim went in front with a birdie on the short par-4 14th after Scheffler and Clark settled for pars after trying to drive the green.<\/p>\n<p>Clark got even again, but Kim went in front for good with a birdie at the par-3 15th.<\/p>\n<p>Scheffler, a four-time major winner who ran away to an eight-shot victory at last year\u2019s Nelson, answered his first bogey of the tournament on the par-3 fourth with three birdies over the final five holes on the front nine. <\/p>\n<p>Jordan Spieth, a hometown favorite alongside Scheffler, faded with four bogeys on his first five holes on the back nine a day after six consecutive birdies to start his second nine spurred a 62. He shot 73.<\/p>\n<p>First-round leader Taylor Moore was back in contention after four consecutive birdies, but went in the water at 15 and ended up with a triple-bogey 6. He shot 69 and was 13 under.<\/p>\n<p>Japan\u2019s Kensei Hirata, playing in the final group with Kim and Im, shot 70 and trails by seven.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/raleighmovingnews.com\/?p=1236\">Groups of protesters clash with police after anti-government rally in Belgrade<\/a><\/p>\n<p>___<\/p>\n<p>AP golf: https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/golf<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>McKINNEY, Texas (AP) \u2014 Si Woo Kim lost all of the five-shot lead he built&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1241,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1242","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
