Rookie Theegala leads Phoenix Open

LOS ANGELES: Sahith Theegala fired a seven-under par 64 on Friday (Saturday in Manila) to lead the Phoenix Open, with former world number one Brooks Koepka and Xander Schauffele on his heels.

Theegala, a tour rookie from California, had a rollercoaster day that saw him surrender the first-round lead only to climb back to the top with eight birdies in his second round at TPC Scottsdale.
