Sizzling Spieth in Three-Way Tie for Lead at Albany

(Reuters) - Jordan Spieth rebounded from a shaky start to get his title defense back on track as he charged into a share of the lead after the second round of the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas on Friday.

The American world number one covered his final 13 holes in a sparkling seven under par to complete a six-under 66 in calm, receptive conditions at Albany Golf Club in New Providence.

That left Spieth at 11-under 133, level with compatriots Bill Haas (66) and Jimmy Walker (67), with three more Americans -- Chris Kirk (65), Patrick Reed (65) and Bubba Watson (67) -- a further stroke back.
