KAILUA-KONA — It doesn’t take long for things to change in the game of golf, as evident in the second round of the Mitsubishi Electric Championship at Hualalai on Friday.
The lead changed hands a few times on the last few holes of the day until Hualalai fixture Bernhard Langer sunk a 7-foot birdie putt on No. 18 to shoot a 7-under 65 for a 15-under 129 total and sole possession of the lead.
“I was hoping to finish strong and I did,” Langer said, who knocked in birdies on four of the final five holes. “Front nine was good, I had a bit of a lull in the middle but then put it all together at the end.
