Amateur Kihei Akina, 18, fired a pair of 69s to be on his way to making the cut in the first-ever Black Desert Championship before a late barrage of low scores in the final hour of Friday’s round bumped him out as low amateur playing his first PGA Tour event. Akina, who started on No.10 Friday, made birdies on finishing holes 3, 5, 6 and 7, lifting himself above the cutline, which was 3-under when he walked off the course in the early afternoon. Former BYU star Zac Blair, who finished at 5-under par, did advance to weekend play.
