After two rounds of the Korn Ferry Tour Finals opener, an Oklahoma State alum holds the lead – it just isn’t the same former Cowboy as Thursday.
Viktor Hovland shot 2-over 73 Friday to slip into a tie for fourth at 5 under, leaving the door open for Kevin Dougherty to take the lead at the Nationwide Children’s Hospital Championship after firing a second-round 66 on Ohio State’s Scarlet Course.
The 28-year-old Dougherty, who leads former Cal standout Brandon Hagy by a shot at 8 under, finished 33rd on the KFT’s regular-season points list. Last season, Dougherty missed out on securing his first PGA Tour card by one spot during the regular season before finishing 53rd on the Finals list.
