Angel Cabrera fired two eagles en route to a 6-under 66 in a roller coaster of a second round of the inaugural James Hardie Pro Football Hall of Fame Invitational in Boca Raton, Fla., on Saturday.

Cabrera, of Argentina, who was playing the back nine first, eagled a pair of par-5 holes, Nos. 16 and 1, at the Old Course at Broken Sound, but his round included five birdies and three bogeys. He is at 10-under 134 for the tournament.

The 55-year-old, who is looking for his first Champions win, began the day in a five-way tie atop the leaderboard and moved to a two-shot lead over Germany’s Alex Cejka, another first-round co-leader, who fired a 4-under 68. He had five birdies and one bogey.

Cabrera’s best Champions finish was fourth in the 2024 SAS Championship. He is trying to be the third first-time winner in 2025.

In doing that, he’d also break a winless streak that is now over 10 years (3,927 days) long. His last victory was at the 2014 Greenbrier Classic.

Cejka is hunting for his fourth tour win. His last victory came in the 2023 Senior Open, which he also claimed in 2021.

He has three Top-10 finishes in six starts this season.

Alone in third at 6-under is South Korea’s K.J. Choi, who also shot a second-round 68. Also starting on the back, Choi had two bogeys and three birdies on his first eight holes, but he played the front nine with three birdies and the rest pars.

Greg Chalmers and Miguel Angel Jimenez were tied for fourth at 5-under. Chalmers, of Australia, shot a 2-under 70 and is at 5-under for the tourney. Spaniard Jimenez, who leads the Charles Schwab Cup standings and is another of Friday’s co-leaders, managed a 1-under 71. His round included a triple-bogey 6 on No. 14.

Rounding out the top 10 in a five-way tie for sixth at 4 under are Joe Durant (70), David Bransdon (72), Retief Goosen (69), Darren Clarke (70) and Colin Montgomerie (69).
