PGA Tour
Fry's.com Open
Paul Casey, at No. 135 on the money list and in danger of losing his PGA TOUR card, has been fighting a foot injury since the middle of May. He showed signs of getting better by winning in South Korea last week, and then he got over jet lag in time to post a 7-under 64.
That put him at 8-under 134. Bud Cauley, who turned pro this summer and is trying to avoid having to go to Q-school, had a 66 and was one shot behind. Fog delayed the start of the second round by 2 hours, 20 minutes, meaning it would not finish until early this morning, weather permitting
Ernie Els, a surprise entry to this Fall Series event, made a steady move up the leaderboard and had an 8-foot birdie putt to tie for the lead on the 16th hole. He missed it and was at 7 under, and will have two holes to play

Nationwide Tour
Children's Hospital Classic
Veteran pro John Mallinger shot a 7-under 65 Friday and grabbed the 36-hole lead at the Children's Hospital Classic in Chattanooga. Mallinger's -13 131 total is one better than former Navy Lieutenant Billy Hurley III, who kept pace with his own 65 at Black Creek Mountain and former champion Justin Bolli (67).
Monday qualifier Brice Garnett (68) is two shots back while Aaron Watkins (65), first-round leader Nicholas Thompson (71), Brett Wetterich (68) and 2006 champion Kyle Reifers (67) are tied for fifth place, three off the pace.
Mallinger has been on a hot streak on the Nationwide Tour after struggling all season on the PGA TOUR. The former Long Beach State standout missed the cut in his first five starts to begin the 2011 campaign. He made six of nine after that but he still missed out on the PGA TOUR Playoffs for the FedExCup when they began in late August
