Sahith Theegala stormed his way to the top of the WM Phoenix Open leaderboard as he wrapped up his second round on Saturday, shooting a 7-under 64, putting him at 13-under after 36 holes.

He finds himself one shot ahead of the field. American Andrew Novak and Canadian Nick Taylor, both of whom finished their second round on Friday, sit at 12-under.

Two-time defending champion Scottie Scheffler is in the hunt, sitting five strokes back at 8-under. He’s tied with Jordan Spieth and Cameron Young.

Nicolo Galletti, a senior at Arizona State, made the cut at 4-under after shooting a second round 67.

Among the notables not to make the cut include Max Homa, Gary Woodland and Rickie Fowler.

The third round began at 2:10 p.m. on the first and 10th hole. Pairings will be going off until 4:10 p.m. MST and will play until darkness.
