Eagles put Cink atop leaderboard
Stewart Cink moved to the top of the Travelers Championship leaderboard Friday, making two long eagle putts in a 6-under 64 that left him a stroke ahead of defending champion Hunter Mahan and two others in Cromwell, Conn.
Cink, the 1997 winner at TPC River Highlands, is seeking his first victory of the season after six top-10 finishes.
"I hope it's just a matter of time," said Cink, who opened with a 66 on Thursday en route to a 10-under 130 total. "I hope it's a matter of about two days."
Mahan shot a 63, the best round of the day, to join Ken Duke and Lucas Glover at 9-under. Duke and Glover shot 66s.
Wegmans LPGA: Morgan Pressel shot a 7-under 65 to take a 1-stroke lead over Suzann Pettersen midway through the Wegmans LPGA in Rochester, N.Y.

Defending champion Lorena Ochoa shot 70 to drop into a tie for 17th at 2 under. Annika Sorenstam (72), who is stepping away from the tour at the end of the season, finished her second round at 1 over and narrowly avoided being cut out of weekend play for the first time in 40 events dating to May 2006.
Michelle Wie matched her opening-round 71 to get to 2 under.
Bank of America Championship: Tom Kite matched the course record with a 9-under 63 to take the first-round lead in the Bank of America Championship in Concord, Mass.

BMW International Open: Germany's Martin Kaymer shot a 9-under 63 to take a 5-stroke lead after the second round of the BMW International Open in Munich, Germany.
