India’s Anirban Lahiri shot a 68 to be tied third half way through the CareerBuilder Challenge as he begins his season on the PGA Tour for 2016. “I got off to a good start, but lost my concentration again,” Lahiri said after what was an up and down round. “It was all happening out there. Got my concentration back and then lost it again.” (Latest Golf News)

Jason Dufner, who leads by 1, knows his way around PGA West’s TPC Stadium Course and the adjacent Nicklaus Tournament Course. He learned out of necessity at the 2008 PGA TOUR Qualifying Tournament. “I probably played each four or five times before that Q-School started,” Dufner said. “I played unbelievable. I think I shot 24 or 25 under for the six rounds. And to be honest with you, this is kind of where everything started for me, because then in 2009 I had a really nice season. That’s kind of when I started playing some good golf.” He thought back to that experience Friday in the CareerBuilder Challenge in partnership with the Clinton Foundation when he shot a 7-under 65 on the Stadium Course to take a one-stroke lead over Jamie Lovemark. “I remember a lot of the shots and how the course played,” Dufner said.
