Kenny Perry shoots 6-under to tie for lead at U.S. Senior Open

Kenny Perry made the biggest splash on Day 2 of the U.S. Senior Open, shooting a 6-under 64 to pull into a tie with Kirk Triplett for the lead with two rounds to go.

Perry’s was the best round on another low-scoring day at Salem Country Club. Triplett shot a 3-under 67 to follow up his amazing 8-under 62 in Thursday’s opening round.

Perry and Triplett’s 11-under par scores are tied for the best ever after two rounds at this tournament. They hold a two-shot lead over Doug Garwood, in third at 9-under.

Senior leaderboard fixture Bernhard Langer shot a 5-under 65 and was tied with Scott Verplank in fourth at 8-under.
