Zalatoris shoots 61 to share lead at Sanderson Farms

JACKSON, Mississippi: Will Zalatoris felt like he couldn't miss on the green and rarely did on Friday (Saturday in Manila) in setting the course record with an 11-under 61 to share the lead with Nick Watney and Sahith Theegala in the Sanderson Farms Championship.

Zalatoris, voted the PGA Tour rookie of the year despite not having full status last year, made it look so simple at the Country Club of Jackson that his longest putt for par was 3 feet.
