WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. — Jhonattan Vegas hasn’t had much success since winning his second PGA Tour event as a rookie in 2011. The Greenbrier Classic could give him that needed boost.
Vegas shot a 5-under-par 65 to tie Scott Langley for the lead after the second round Friday. They were at 9-under 131 on the Old White TPC course in West Virginia.
Twenty-three golfers were within three shots of the lead, including seven at 8 under, and Tiger Woods, Bubba Watson and former Kansas State All-American Robert Streb were among those trailing by four.
Vegas doesn’t have a top 10 finish this season, but he’s looking to change that.
