Palm Beach Garden: A flawless
front-nine helped Jeev Milkha Singh turn in a one-under 69 and
rise 14 places to tied 29th after the second round of the USD
5.6 million Honda Classic golf tournament here.
Jeev has a two-day total of one-under 140.
After parring the first couple of holes, Jeev struck a
birdie on the third and gained two more shots on the fifth and
seventh to make the turn three-under.
The back-nine started disappointingly as he stumbled to a
bogey on the 11th hole but he made amends with a birdie on the
12th hole.
But his card was marred by bogeys on the 16th and 17th as
he settled one-under for the day.
At the top, Columbian Camilo Villegas (66) and American
Anthony Kim (64) shared the lead with totals of eight-under
132.
Fijian Vijay Singh (66) followed them a stroke adrift at
the lone third spot.
