SHEBOYGAN, Wis. (AP) — David Lingmerth rebounded from a bad stretch of golf to head to the locker room with the lead at the PGA Championship.
He shot 2-under 70 to finish the second round at 7-under 137 on a sweltering day at Whistling Straits. That puts him one shot ahead of Jordan Spieth, who just completed a round of 5-under 67, Russell Henley, who is out on the course, and Dustin Johnson, who tees off this afternoon.
Lingmerth got to 8 under after six holes but played the next three holes at 4 over par. His back nine was better, and when he dropped a 35-footer in on No. 18, he had his eighth birdie of the round and was back in the lead.
