Napa (California), Sep 14 (PTI) Defending champion Sahith Theegala made amends for a first day card of 69 with an impressive 6-under 66 in the second round to rise to sixth place in the Procore Championship.

Theegala, who was third in the just concluded FedEx Cup, is four shots behind the leader Patton Kizzire (66-65) at 13-under on the picturesque course in the heart of Napa Valley wine country.

Kizzire shot a 7-under 65 for a one-stroke advantage over David Lipsky (65-67) at 12-under in the Procore Championship at Silverado.
