Las Vegas resident Kevin Na posted two back-nine eagles and shot a 9-under 62 on Friday for a share of the second-round lead in the PGA Tour's Shriners Hospitals for Children Open.
Playing alongside Phil Mickelson at Vegas resort TPC Summerlin, Na eagled the par-5 13th and 16th holes and added birdies on the par-3 17th and par-4 18th to match Lucas Glover (63), 2017 winner Patrick Cantlay (64) and Brian Stuard (65) at 12-under 130.
Na made four long putts on the back nine Friday, holing out from 43 and 35 feet for the eagles and 23 and 22 feet on the closing birdies.
Mickelson was 8 under, following an opening 65 with a 69. He missed the cut last week at the Safeway Open in his season debut.
Top-ranked Brooks Koepka missed the cut in his season debut with rounds of 70 and 71. He's the first world No. 1 to play the Vegas stop since Greg Norman in 1988.
