Irving, Texas — Ben Crane made a 14-foot birdie putt on his last hole Friday for a 7-under 63 and a one-stroke lead after two rounds at the Byron Nelson.

At 12-under 128, Crane was one stroke ahead of Jordan Spieth, Sergio Garcia, Brooks Koepka and Bud Cauley.

Spieth had a 65. He’s playing only his second tournament since squandering a five-stroke lead on the back nine at the Masters. The world’s No. 2-ranked player missed the cut last week at The Players Championship.

The last time Crane led a tournament was at Memphis two years ago, the last of his five PGA Tour victories.

Crane first took the lead after six birdies in an eight-hole stretch, including a 70-foot shot from a greenside bunker at the par-4 third hole, his 12th of the day. The closing birdie came right after his only bogey.

Koepka had a 64, Cauley shot 65, and Garcia 66.

At Birmingham, Ala., Kenny Perry shot a 2-under 70 to maintain a one-stroke lead over Bernhard Langer and Billy Andrade in the Regions Tradition.

Perry had three birdies and a bogey to reach 10-under 134 at Greystone in the first of the year’s five PGA Tour Champions majors. The 2014 Regions Tradition winner has missed only one green in regulation.

Langer had a 69, and Andrade shot 68.

Gene Sauers (70), Scott McCarron (66) and Kevin Sutherland were 8 under.

At Williamsburg, Va., So Yeon Ryu had six birdies in an eight-hole stretch and shot a 7-under 64 to take the second-round lead in the Kingsmill Championship.

Ranked 11th in the world but sixth in the race for the four spots on South Korea’s Olympic team, Ryu opened with a bogey on the 10th hole, then used the birdie run to make the turn in 5-under 30.

Auto Racing All-Star Events Washed Out

Concord, n.c. — Rain washed out all track activity Friday at Charlotte Motor Speedway, which will now try to cram its All-Star weekend into one day.

The steady showers forced NASCAR to call off the scheduled Sprint Showdown, a race that will send five drivers not already qualified for the All-Star race, into the main event. The Truck Series race also was postponed.

Both events were rescheduled for early today, with the $1 million All-Star Race still scheduled to go off in the evening. NASCAR set the showdown field by points.

The lack of track time Friday could be problematic for many race teams. NASCAR only announced the format for the all-star race on May 6, and the rules were not given to teams until earlier this week.

NBA Basketball Wolves Make Overhaul

Minneapolis — New Minnesota Timberwolves GM Scott Layden has announced sweeping changes to the team’s front office and coaching staffs, starting with the departures of former GM Milt Newton and vice president of sports performance Arnie Kander.

Layden announced the changes Friday night, a few weeks after he and coach Tom Thibodeau were hired to take over the team’s coaching and front office. Vice president of basketball operations Rob Babcock, assistant coach Sidney Lowe and scouts Milt Barnes and Jason Hervey were among the others let go.

Newton worked closely with the late Flip Saunders to reshape the team’s roster and bring in the young talent that has generated so much optimism. And Kander was brought in by Saunders to reshape the team’s medical staff. He played a big role in the Timberwolves’ improved health last season.

OlympicsRio to Top London In Condom Supply

Rio De Janeiro — About 450,000 condoms will be distributed during the Rio de Janeiro Olympics, three times more than for the London Games four years ago, the International Olympic Committee says.

Part of the reason was because 100,000 female condoms will be available for the first time, along with 350,000 condoms for men. About 175,000 packets of lubricant are also being supplied.

The IOC says the condoms would encourage 10,500 athletes and staff to practice safe sex.

It’s not clear if the increase is related to Brazil’s outbreak of the Zika virus. The Associated Press asked the question of the IOC in an email on Friday but did not receive an immediate response.

The Zika virus is carried by mosquitoes, but can also be transmitted sexually. The virus is linked to microcephaly, a condition in which babies are born with undersized brains and skulls.
