Bryson DeChambeau leads all LIV golfers at 3-under, one shot better than Jupiter’s Brooks Koepka. DeChambeau, who led after Round 1, shot 71 Friday and is tied for fourth. DeChambeau was one of four from the LIV Golf League to miss the cut at the Masters.

Koepka climbed into the top 10 with a 66, including four birdies on his final seven holes. Koepka is 2-under through the first two rounds, tied for sixth. Koepka was runner-up, along with LIV teammate Phil Mickelson, at the Masters.
