Peter Uihlein made an eagle on his 17th hole to move to the top of a congested leaderboard after two rounds of the LIV Golf event in Jeddah. On another blisteringly hot day, Uihlein began the round three adrift, but overhauled Brooks Koepka following a round of 63 to get to 12-under.

Internationals captain Trevor Immelman, whose Presidents Cup squad was decimated by defectors to the LIV Golf Series, laughed off the well wishes of LIV commissioner Greg Norman on Friday.
The United States tightened their grip on the Presidents Cup, with Friday’s fourballs domination raising the prospect of a blowout at Quail Hollow. The Internationals were severely weakened by the defections to LIV Golf, with the likes of Cameron Smith, Joaquin Niemann, Abraham Ancer and Louis Oosthuizen unavailable to captain Trevor Immelman. Ad Those absences left a big hole to fill, while it’s arguable only Dustin Johnson was a major miss for Davis Love III’s USA.
