HONOLULU (AP) — Patrick Fishburn found some early momentum and Denny McCarthy overcame a sluggish start Friday, both winding up in the same spot — a share of the lead in the Sony Open going into what figures to be a wide-open weekend at Waialae.
Fishburn ran off three straight birdies on the back nine at the start of his round and chipped in for birdie on the fifth hole, closing with one last birdie for a 5-under 65.
McCarthy missed a pair of relatively short par putts by his standards early in his round.
