Sony Open: Wilson shoots 69, but might miss cut

Advertiser Staff

Dean Wilson, 37, a Castle High alum from Kane'ohe, shot a 1-under 69 Friday in the second round of the Sony Open in Hawai'i at Waialae Country Club.

His two-day total of 1-over-par might not be good enough to make the cut.

Wilson birdied the second, but bogeyed the third. He then birdied fifth and made the turn at 1-under 34.

But he bogeyed the 10th to fall to even for the round and 2-over overall. He birdied the par-5 18th to close the back nine a even-par 35.

Wilson rallied from a triple bogey to shoot a 2-over 72 in the first round Thursday.

The 144-player field will be cut to the top 70 players and ties after Friday's second round.

Wilson was trying to make his third Sony cut in six tries.

Wilson broke through with his first PGA victory last year and finished 22nd on the PGA Tour money list.
