The PGA Tour is live from the FedEx St. Jude Classic on Satrday for the second round and third after a delay stopped the play of the round on Friday and things pick up with a live stream from Memphis and Ben Crane is in the lead with names chasing like Carl Petterssen and Zach Johnson as things pick up and Phil Mickelson is looking to close in on the top of the leaderboard while dealing with his insider trading issues and things will be on TV from CBS and the Golf Channel and now Ben Crane has won the tournament.
Mickelson had a nice start to the tournament with a three under in the first round and some weather came in and stopped play and now things have picked up again on Friday. Rain and lightning forced a three hour delay and Mickelson finished off his day very strong and he ended the day with five birdies and he had three over the final four holes and he was under 70 for the first time in quite a while and that came after he did it at the Wells Fargo and now he looks like he has his swing back now.
Ben Crane topped the leaderboard heading into Friday and now Mickelson will try and get things clsoer, while Billy Horschel had a solid day and so did Retief Goosen and Joe Durant after shooting 66. Harris English comes in looking to defend his title and he has the chance to get things going on Friday, as he had a rough start and went three over but he was able to finish up his round.
Tiger Woods is out of play and he will miss the US Open and that major on the schedule will be tough for him to miss and he could miss the Open Championship as well. Woods is dealing with a back injury and he is looking to get back on the course as soon as he can and he could miss the rest of the season if he is not back soon. Woods had a terrible start to the year and he flamed out of a couple tournaments and did not play well and had to withdraw from one due to his injury and he has not yet returned to full practice.
This year has been a complete reversal from last year, as Woods has not won on Tour and he also lost his number one in the world ranking. Woods took that back last year while winning three times ahead of the Masters at Augusta and he ended up winning five times on tour last year to lead all players and now he is on the sidelines. Woods is hoping to be back for the Open Championship and if he doesn't get back for that the PGA Championship is next on the schedule.
