Romo ups lead to 9 points in celebrity golf event

STATELINE, Nev. -- Defending champion Tony Romo increased his lead to nine points Saturday in the American Century Championship at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course.

The former Dallas Cowboys quarterback-turned-NFL analyst shot his second straight 2-under 70 and scored 25 points for a total of 51 in the celebrity tournament that uses the modified Stableford scoring system. He has played in two PGA Tour events this year.

"I felt good about the game coming in and it's kind of held up this week," Romo said. "Ballstriking has been real good. I missed a few putts, but everyone is going to do that.
