Patton Kizzire uses hot finish to take lead at Procore

kizzire

Patton Kizzire drained six birdies on his back nine Friday to shoot a 7-under-par 65 and take the halfway lead at the Procore Championship in Napa, Calif.

Kizzire moved to 13-under 131 for the week at Silverado Resort’s North Course. He enters the weekend one shot ahead of first-round leader David Lipsky, who followed his opening 65 with a 67.

Patrick Fishburn carded a 65 to grab third place at 11 under.

Matt Kuchar tied for the round of the day with an 8-under 64, which moved the veteran into a share of fourth place at 10 under with J.J. Spaun (65 on Friday). Defending champion Sahith Theegala was just behind them at 9 under following a 66.

Kizzire entered the “FedEx Cup Fall” portion of the season No. 132 in the standings, and Lipsky was even further back at No. 163. They and their peers are trying to play their way into the top 125 by the end of the fall in order to secure full status for the 2025 PGA Tour season.

Kizzire, 38, birdied the first hole Friday but went quiet until making the turn. He recorded three straight birdies at Nos. 10-12 and added circles on his card at the 15th, 17th and 18th holes.

Among his highlights were a tee shot at the par-3 11th that nestled within 5 feet of the pin and a 28 1/2-foot birdie putt at the par-3 17th that tracked from left to right and straight into the cup.

The projected cut line was 2 under par as the final groups finished their rounds Friday evening. Among the notable players on track to miss the cut were two-time tournament champion Max Homa (1 under), Wyndham Clark (2 over) and Mark Hubbard, who followed a first-round 67 with a 5-over 77 to drop to even par.
