Davis Thompson leads by 1 over Scottie Scheffler with Rory McIlroy lurking at Torrey Pines
Associated PressSAN DIEGO — Davis Thompson capped a roller coaster of a back nine at Torrey Pines with a birdie to take the lead Friday in the Genesis Invitational. It set up for a compelling weekend in this $20 million signature event with two names leaping off the pages of the leaderboard — Scheffler, playing bogey-free despite hitting only five fairways, and Rory McIlroy showing the form that led him to victory at Pebble Beach. “Yeah, just trying to stay in my own lane.” Scheffler, whose start to the year was delayed by a freak hand injury, appears to be gaining comfort in his game even if it didn’t always look that way in far more agreeable weather along the Pacific bluffs. But I know going into the weekend I’m going to have to play the par 5s better.” The signature events hosted by a player — Tiger Woods at the Genesis Invitational, though he is not playing this week — have a 36-hole cut of the top 50 and ties.
