PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. — James Driscoll birdied the final two holes Friday at Spyglass Hill for a 7-under 65 and a one-stroke lead in the Pebble Beach Invitational.
Driscoll, playing through a stomach illness, had a 7-under 137 total in the exhibition event. He played the past two seasons on the Web.com Tour after nearly a decade on the PGA Tour.
Andrew Putnam, a one-time winner on the PGA Tour, was tied for second with Champions Tour player Joe Durant and the Web.com Tour's Jeff Gove. Durant had a 70 at Pebble Beach, and Gove shot 69 at Spyglass.
