Micheel takes lead with early birdie at US Open

PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (AP)—Playing with his cancer-stricken mother on his mind, Shaun Micheel made an early birdie Friday to take the lead in the second round of the U.S. Open.
Starting on the back nine on a foggy morning at Pebble Beach, Micheel made birdie on No. 11 to move to 3-under par, one stroke ahead of his first-day co-leaders, Paul Casey and Brendon de Jonge, who were also on the course Friday morning. Maruman Majesty Prestigio FV-R Iron Set
Micheel’s mother has cancer and is in a hospice, not given much longer to live. Last week, playing in front of home fans in Tennessee, Micheel finished fourth at the St. Jude’s Classic. For at least a while this week, the 2003 PGA winner is leader at the U.S. Open—not that he’ll ever have to be reminded again that golf（Maruman Majesty Prestigio FV-R Fairway Wood）is only a game.
“It’s nice, because I’m playing for someone else,” Micheel said after Thursday’s 2-under 69. “It was always about me, me, me. What’s my money list, where am I on the FedEx Cup? It doesn’t matter anymore. I love my mom. What do you say? She’s hanging in there.” Maruman Majesty Prestigio FV-R Driver
