Lee Janzen knows exactly how important the flat stick can be when the rest of your game is struggling.

“I haven't hit very many greens, but also I've rolled the ball really well, made a lot of par putts and some other longer ones, too,” Janzen said after a 66 Friday that leaves him at 6 under heading into the weekend. “It's been coming along. Been working hard on it.”

That hard work has been paying off. Janzen has only 49 putts through 36 holes at the St. Jude Classic presented by Smith & Nephew. Friday, he made every one of his 14 putts from inside 10 feet.

“Nice to be playing on the weekend,” Janzen said. “It's just one shot at a time, and we're halfway there and today was a good day. Tomorrow is another day, and hopefully it's a good day.” -- Ryan Pierce
