Jay Jurecic and Zach Johnson share the lead at the Sanford International

Jay Jurecic and Zach Johnson share the 36-hole lead at 7-under 133 at the Sanford International in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Jurecic, a 56-year-old former school teacher making his season debut on the PGA Tour Champions, qualified for the tournament through an open qualifier earlier this week. He carded a 65 on Saturday to reach the top of the leaderboard alongside past Masters champion Johnson, who fired a 64. The duo holds a one-stroke advantage over a group that includes Retief Goosen, Jamie Donaldson, and Ben Crane. Jurecic spent his career as a teacher in Michigan before resigning at age 50 to pursue professional golf. He enters the final rounds seeking his first career victory on the senior circuit. He is slated to play alongside Johnson in the final group during the next stage of the event.
