AKRON, Ohio -- The 36-hole lead was nice, and Jimmy Walker wasn't complaining. But he also wasn't celebrating, either. Sure, it was great to be out in front at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, but plenty of golf remained.
And while that might sound like a cliché, Walker was speaking more from the perspective of a year spent dealing with the effects of Lyme Disease and the inconsistency that it has brought to his golf game instead of the usual ups and downs experienced with tournament golf.
He also seemed to suggest what awaited him Saturday during the third round at Firestone Country Club.
