VERONA, N.Y. (AP) Steve Flesch shot an 7-under 65 Friday to take sole possession of the lead after two rounds of the inaugural Turning Stone Resort Championship.

Flesch, who began the day one shot off the lead, was at 13-under 131, one stroke ahead of first-round co-leader Jeff Gove (67) and Brendon de Jonge, who carded his second straight 66. Charles Warren (65) was alone in fourth at 11 under.

Rookie Matt Hendrix, a former star at Clemson, had his second straight 67 and was tied for fifth at 10 under with Chris Stroud (65) and Charley Hoffman.

Jeff Maggert (64) was another shot back, tied at 135 with Jeff Overton (65), Mathew Goggin (69), Briny Baird (66), Bill Haas (66) and three others.

Joey Sindelar, from nearby Horseheads and a two-time winner of the B.C. Open, and Robert Gamez each shot a second straight 68 and were tied at 8 under with John Senden (70), Tag Ridings (69), Johnson Wagner (67), John Rollins (69), and four others.

Chad Campbell, who had a share of the first-round lead, had an even-par 72 to remain at 7 under.

With conditions again ideal on a hazy, humid day with temperatures in the 80s and a slight breeze, Flesch started at No. 10 and quickly built on his opening 66, making four birdies and an eagle for a record 30 on the back side of the forgiving 7,482-yard Atunyote Gold Club course, with its wide fairways and soft, smooth-rolling greens.

Flesch hit a 3-wood to within 14 feet at the 562-yard, par-5 12th hole and made eagle to reach 9 under, birdied the next two holes and sank a 15-foot birdie putt at No. 18 to tie de Jonge for the lead at 12 under.

Flesch, who started the tournament with six birdies on his first eight holes on the front side, took sole possession of the lead with a 17-foot birdie putt at the par-4 second hole. But a three-putt bogey from 35 feet on his final hole nullified a birdie at No. 8.
