(Reuters) - Jimmy Walker, one week away from the defence of his PGA Championship title, fired a five-under 65 to seize a two-shot lead after two rounds of the World Golf Championship-Bridgestone Invitational on Friday. "Luckily I found one birdie coming in," added the Northern Irishman, who chipped in for birdie at the 16th. Walker is winless this season and has struggled since being diagnosed with Lyme disease in April. Played solid, hit it well, made some putts," said Walker, who has been plagued by bouts of fatigue among other disease symptoms. Walker took the lead with a birdie following one of his trademark, high-arcing iron shots that landed two feet from the cup at the par-three 12th.
