Smalley, McNealy atop PGA as several stars lurk
Maverick McNealy, ranked 33rd in the world, and Alex Smalley, ranked 78th, are tied at 4 under. That lead is tenuous, however, as Hideki Matsuyama, Min Woo Lee, Chris Gotterup, Aldrich Potgieter, Stephan Jaeger and Max Greyserman are just a single shot behind.
In all, a tournament-record 58 players are within six shots of the lead through two rounds — including world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who’s just two shots behind at 2 under.
