BOISE, Idaho (AP) -- Andrew Johnson shot an 8-under 63 on Friday to take a two-stroke lead in the Albertsons Boise Open, putting the bearded Englishmen in position to wrap up a PGA Tour card.

Eighth in the British Open in July, Johnson had 10 birdies and two bogeys to reach 13-under 129 at Hillcrest in the second of four Web.com Tour Finals events.

Three-time PGA Tour winner Scott Stallings and Argentina's Miguel Angel Carballo were tied for second. Stallings had a 65, and Carballo shot 64.

The series features the top 75 players from the Web.
