Parnevik eagled the par-5 13th and had four birdies and two bogeys. “I feel like everything is sort of there, it’s just a matter of putting it all together and for the most part this year I haven’t been able to do that. Like I said, with the way it’s been going, the game’s even going to be better tomorrow and should be fun”.

PREMIER LEAGUE: Jamie Vardy scored twice as Leicester produced a swaggering 3-1 victory over Everton in its first match as Premier League champion before collecting the trophy.

Daly followed his opening 70 with a 73 to drop into a tie for 21st at 1 under.

“There have been spells where it has been good and I have had a couple of chances to win this year, but I haven’t quite done that”.

“I’m going to learn from this mishap and move on”, Blair said, also posting on Twitter a video of Woody Austin smacking his own head with his putter back in 1997. 14-17 and closed with two pars to reach 9-under 207.

“I don’t really know, actually”, she said. “That’s why I take two-week breaks is to get some time away to relax and reset”.

The 27-year-old said: “It was sort of weird”.

Birdies on the long fifth and the par-four eighth, where he pitched to tap-in distance from 52 yards, suggested Lowry was in scoring mode, but a bogey five on the ninth brought him to the turn in level-par 36. That came in remarkable fashion at the 2013 Open Championship.

Zoeller and Jacobsen each shot 76.

Rory McIlroy played himself back into contention at the Wells Fargo Championship after a solid second round yesterday.

En route to his 6-under 66, Roberto Castro became the third player to hole-out for an eagle-2 on No. 18.

But big names were looming.

Mickelson believes he’s in the thick of it at 5 under as he chases his first win in Charlotte.

Rickie Fowler took control of the Wells Fargo Championship with a third round score of 68.

Hadley, victor of the 2014 Puerto Rico Open, is in search of his second PGA TOUR win in his 77th TOUR start this week. “I mean, we were still playing golf over there, having a good time, but it’s nearly like a reset button”. He birdied the par-4 16 Friday, then scorched a 237-yard hybrid from the light rough to within 15 feet of a back pin to birdie the unforgiving 18.

McIlroy has now played 47 consecutive par-5s in the event without a bogey.

Another bogey on 11 cut him further adrift of the leaders, and despite a birdie on 12 he soon gave that shot back on the 15th.

Moynihan’s 69 for three-under-par was nine shots off the lead held by Matthieu Pavon.

Now McIlroy is hoping to carry a little weekend magic over from a year ago.

Rory McIlroy had a flurry of birdies in the middle of his round.

Seeking her first Tour victory, the 20-year-old Thai player had a 14-under 202 total.

“It’s halftime”, Loupe said after Friday’s 1-under-par round. “There’s a lot of good golfers right behind me”. Just very well designed, and now that the greens, they’re just pristine.

For the second straight day, there were some weird moments at Quail Hollow Club.

Jason Kokrak’s ball landed in an elevated tent near the 18th green.

He bogeyed the 11th and 13th holes after missing the 11th green and three-putting from 37 feet on 13. Unlike the fictional Roy McAvoy, Kokrak failed to make the cut.

Notes: Jim Furyk (wrist surgery) is returning to competition.

Fowler won The Players Championship in a playoff with a furious rally, added titles at the Deutsche Bank Championship in September and Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship in January, and has risen to No. 5 in the world rankings.
