TULSA, Oklahoma: American Will Zalatoris fired a bogey-free five-under-par 65 to seize a one-stroke lead late in Friday's second round (Saturday in Manila) of the PGA Championship.

Aided by gusting winds that vanished in the afternoon, late-starter Zalatoris reeled off three birdies in a row starting at the par-3 11th hole then rolled in a birdie putt from just outside seven feet at the par-4 17th to finish 36 holes at Southern Hills on 9-under-par 131.
