Pennson Badgett, from North Carolina, is tied with Woods in second place. He shot 67. Esterline’s 66 consisted of five birdies and no bogeys. The Kansan is 19 under par. Thirty-three boys made the second cut and will play the final round Friday for the title.

The duo of Tiger and Charlie Woods finished runner-up in the event to Bernard and Jason Langer after Bernard hit an 18-foot eagle putt in a playoff. The younger Woods, who is entering his junior year of high school, qualified to compete in the U.S. Junior Amateur but missed the cut.
