(Reuters) - Russell Henley is known for his ability to make birdies in bunches and he piled up eight of them as he surged into a one-shot lead in the second round of the $5.6 million (3.48 million pound) McGladrey Classic at Sea Island in Georgia on Friday.
Competing in his home state, the 25-year-old American picked up four shots in his last six holes to fire a best-of-the-week, seven-under-par 63 on the Seaside Course and seize control in the third event of the PGA Tour's 2014-15 season.
