PITTSFORD, N.Y. — LIV golfers are having another solid showing at a major.

Of the 16 golfers from the Saudi-backed league playing in the PGA Championship, 11 made the cut, which is one fewer than the Masters.

Bryson DeChambeau leads all LIV golfers at 3-under, one shot better than Jupiter's Brooks Koepka. DeChambeau, who led after Round 1, shot 71 Friday and is tied for fourth. DeChambeau was one of four from the LIV Golf League to miss the cut at the Masters.
