Your support makes all the difference.Phil Mickelson surged into a surprising share of the lead on the second day of the PGA Championship, carding an impressive 69 early in the day as players struggled to contend with the wind at Kiawah Isalnd.
Nobody was able to surpass the American’s tally, who is attempting to win his first major since 2013, but he was matched by former Open champion Louis Oosthuizen, whose round of 68 also left him at five-under-par for the tournament.
A resurgent Brooks Koepka looms just one shot back, though, and is now in many eyes the favourite to win his fifth major this weekend, despite the ongoing injury problems with his knee. Meanwhile, Oosthuizen’s compatriots Branden Grace and Christiaan Bezuidenhout sit alongside Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama at three-under-par ahead of what promises to be a thrilling weekend.
There was no such luck for a host of big names, though, with Dustin Johnson, Justin Thomas, Sergio Garcia and Xander Schauffele among those to miss the cut.
