Tiger grabs share of lead for first time in two years

GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) — Tiger Woods signed up for his first Wyndham Championship knowing a win would definitively keep his season from ending.

He's halfway there.

Woods shot a 5-under 65 on Friday to share the second-round lead with rookie Tom Hoge.

"I'm only at the halfway point," Woods said. "Only 36 holes. We've still got a long way to go."

Woods and Hoge were at 11-under 129. Hoge shot a 67.

The sport's biggest name put himself in prime position to contend for his first victory in more than two years, one that would send him into the FedEx Cup playoffs.
