HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. (AP) – Two-time champion Stewart Cink has moved into position for a third RBC Heritage title, shooting a second straight 63 to set the 36-hole scoring mark at Harbour Town. The 47-year-old Cink has played his first two rounds at 16-under 126, five strokes better than Corey Conners. The previous best midway score was 129, set by Jack Nicklaus en route to victory in 1975 and matched by Phil Mickelson, who wound up third in 2002. Conners and Emiliano Grillo each fired 64s on Friday. Grillo is six back.
