Straka in third place at halftime in race for PGA tournament victory

Golfer Sepp Straka is in full contention for victory at the halfway point of the PGA Tour's Truist Championship in Philadelphia. The Vienna native shot a 67 on the par-70 course on Friday, four strokes more than his opening effort, but still held on to the third place he had fought for on Thursday. He remains only two strokes behind the leading American, Keith Mitchell, who matched Straka's performance in the second round.
