(AP) -- Justin Rose shot an 8-under 62, birdieing
five consecutive back-nine holes for the second straight round, to
take a four-stroke lead over Kevin Sutherland in the
Travelers Championship.
Rose, the Memorial winner three weeks ago who failed to qualify
for the U.S. Open last week at Pebble Beach, broke the tournament
record for the first 36 holes, finishing at 14-under 126. The 62
was one off the course record at TPC River Highlands.
Sutherland shot his second straight 65. Vijay Singh (66), Corey
Pavin (66), Bill Lunde (63) and Charlie Wi (67) were five strokes
back at 9 under.
