HAWAII CHAMPIONSHIP

KAPOLEI, Hawaii (AP) - Tom Pernice Jr. birdied his final four holes for a 12-under 60 and a four-stroke lead in the Champions Tour's Hawaii Championship.

Pernice finished a stroke off the tour record of 59 set by Kevin Sutherland last month in the Dick's Sporting Goods Open in Endicott, New York.

Pernice played his final nine holes - the front nine at Kapolei Golf Club - in 7-under 29, also birdieing Nos. 1, 2 and 4. He had five birdies on his opening nine.

The 55-year-old Pernice, a two-time winner on the PGA Tour winner, won the Principal Charity Classic in June in Iowa for his third Champions Tour title.

Michael Allen was second after a 64.

Davis Love III opened with a 69 in his Champions Tour debut. The 20-time PGA Tour winner turned 50 in April.

WEB.COM TOUR CHAMPIONSHIP

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Zac Blair topped the Web.com Tour Championship leaderboard at 12 under when second-round play was suspended because of darkness.

Blair was 5 under with three holes left in the round that was delayed because of rain. On Thursday, the 24-year-old former BYU player shot a 63 to match the record on TPC Sawgrass' Dye's Valley Course.

After missing the cuts in the first three events in the Web.com Tour Finals, Blair needs to earn about $40,000 in the season finale to earn a PGA Tour card.

The four-event series is limited to the top 75 players from the Web.com Tour money list and Nos. 126-200 in the PGA Tour's FedEx Cup standings.

The top 25 on the Web.com money list have earned PGA Tour cards. They are competing against each other for PGA Tour priority, with regular-season earnings counting in their totals. The other players are fighting for another 25 cards based on their earnings in the series.

Derek Fathauer was second at 9 under after a 66.

Tommy Gainey broke the course record with a 62 to move into a tie for ninth at 5 under.

WALES OPEN

NEWPORT, Wales (AP) - Ireland's Shane Lowry shot a 6-under 65 to take a one-shot lead in the Wales Open, and Scotland's Stephen Gallacher missed the cut in his final tournament before his first Ryder Cup.

Lowry had a 9-under 133 total on Celtic Manor's Twenty-Ten Course.

Belgium's Nicolas Colsaerts and Dutchman Joost Luiten were tied for second. Colsaerts had a 68, eagling the 18th hole for the second day in a row, and Luiten shot 69.

Gallacher followed his opening 78 with a 70.
