Flesch leads tournament host Stricker at American Family Insurance Championship

MADISON, Wis. – Steve Flesch birdied the final three holes for a 7-under 65 and the second-round lead Saturday in the American Family Insurance Championship, with tournament host Steve Stricker a stroke back in his hometown tournament.

The 52-year-old Flesch played the back nine at University Ridge in 5-under 31 to reach 11-under 133. He won the 2018 Mitsubishi Electric Classic for his lone PGA Tour Champions title after winning four times on the PGA Tour.

"Hit a lot of good shots, had a lot of opportunities," Flesch said. "Greens are perfect, and today I made three more than I did yesterday.
