Nielsen ties Commerce record after 36 holes
Lonnie Nielsen birdied five of in seven holes on the back nine Saturday and his 7-under 64 gave him a record-tying three-stroke lead over Tom McKnight after two rounds of the Commerce Bank Championship.
Nielsen, who didn't win in his five years on the regular U.S. tour tour in his five seasons on the seniors circuit, had a 12-under 130 total after 36 holes on the 7,011-yard Red Course at Eisenhower Park.
