Stanley leads the way in Florida

A blustery Palm Beach Gardens has seen the PGA Tour's 'Florida Swing' get under way with a strong field competing not only against each other, but also Mother Nature and a tough track at the Honda Classic.
Tour rookie Kyle Stanley leads the way after Day 2 at the PGA National Champion Course with a score of -6. This follows a composed round of 66 to add to a 68 on Day 1.
The round of the tournament so far was produced by Rory Sabbatini, who carded a course record-equalling 64 on Day 2 - including a run of five birdies between holes 9 and 15. This superb performance in the wind leaves the South African one stroke behind Stanley in second place, followed by fellow South African Charl Schwartzel in third place on -3.
World number two Lee Westwood is currently tied for eighth place after a 69 on Day 2 left him on -1. He is joined on the same overnight score by four others, including Y. E. Yang and Matt Kuchar.
