Jason Day carded a 1-under 69 Friday to take a one-shot lead over David Lingmerth through 36 holes at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational. Here’s how things stand heading into the weekend at Firestone Country Club:
Leaderboard: Day (-4), Lingmerth (-3), William McGirt (-2), Emiliano Grillo (-2), Scott Piercy (-2)
What it means: Three behind overnight leader McGirt to start Round 2, Day led by two heading with one hole to play after birdies at 16 and 17. But after missing the green following a gorgeous drive at 18, he elected to putt from the fringe and failed to save par, closing his day with a sloppy bogey.
