SAN FRANCISCO (AP) Maybe all Michael Thompson needs to do to stay in front at the U.S. Open is stay out of trouble.
Same for Tiger Woods.
The Olympic Club again clobbered so many of golf's best players Friday, keeping most of them over par and in the rough. Jim Furyk shot a 1-under 69 to move to 1 under for the tournament for the 36-hole clubhouse lead.
Thompson had a 4-under 66 in a sensational opening round, leaving him three strokes ahead of Woods and David Toms. When all three teed off in the afternoon, Furyk was the only other player in red numbers.
Top-ranked Luke Donald and defending champion Rory McIlroy were likely going to miss the cut. Donald closed the second round at 11 over and McIlroy at 10 over.
