For the second straight day, the big story at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, NC., was Tiger Woods who went out in the afternoon and followed an opening round of 64, with a -5 65 on Friday to share the second-round lead with unknown rookie Tom Hoge (62 67) at -11-under 129.
The folks at Wyndham, and everyone who covers and follows golf have hit the jackpot, as this event sandwiched between the PGA Championship and the playoffs, best known for the guys on the bubble desperately trying to get into the top 125, has suddenly got the biggest name in sports at the top of their leaderboard, making headlines across the world..
Wynham, who are in the hotel and resort business, just can't buy this much publicity.
Davis Love III and Chad Campbell are at -10. Campbell shot 65, and Love had 66 while Brandt Snedeker matched the tournament record with a 61 that put him in a group of six players at -9.

More great news for a sponsor as the good folks at Canadian Pacific are all smiles as their headliner, Brooke Henderson who hasn't had her "A" game so far this week struggled Friday to a +3 75 to go with her opening 70, and looked to be bowing out but the cut fell at +1, so she is in for the weekend, along with fellow Canucks, Alena Sharp after she shot E 72, T32 and Maude-Aimee LeBlanc who shot a -1,71 tied with Brooke at +1.
The leader is Candie Kung who tied the course record when she shot a 64 to grab the 36-hole lead at -11. She has been in form, coming off of her best finish of the year with a T2 behind Henderson at the Portland Classic last week
Karine Icher 70, and 2012 and 2013 champion Lydia Ko 68, are two shots back at -9.
