(Reuters) - American Jimmy Walker edged one step closer to a third victory on the 2013-14 PGA Tour when he moved into an early tie for the lead in Friday's rain-delayed second round of the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am.

FedExCup points leader Walker, who won the season-opening Frys.com Open in October and last month's Sony Open in Hawaii fired a three-under-par 69 at Spyglass Hill, one of three venues being used for this week's event.
