LA QUINTA, Calif. – Patrick Cantlay extended his string of 21 consecutive rounds under par in PGA Tour competition with a 4-under 68 Friday, but his afternoon seemed almost passive compared to the round he shot the previous day.
But Cantlay’s 68 after an opening 62 at the American Express was still good enough for the UCLA graduate to take sole possession of the lead in the $7.6 million event in La Quinta.
“I felt like it was really solid golf, I didn’t get the most out of it I possibly could, but another solid day and two more of those I should be right there,” Cantlay said.
