Collin Morikawa ran off four straight birdies after making the turn Friday, helping him earn a three-shot lead going into the weekend at the Workday Charity Open.

Morikawa ran off four straight birdies after making the turn Friday, finished with another birdie after the first of two storm delays and shot 6-under 66.

Thomas hasn’t made a bogey all week and finished his round with an 8-foot birdie putt. Streelman reached 11 under until a bogey on the par-3 eighth near the end of his round. They will be in the final group Saturday, which will be played in threesomes because a pair of 75-minute delays from thunderstorms meant the second round didn’t finish.Starting with a near ace on the 12th hole, Koepka birdied five of his last seven holes, closing with a 40-foot birdie putt for a 69.

Sam Burns birdied his last three holes for a 66 and joined past Muirfield Village winner Hideki Matsuyama four shots behind. Right behind was Viktor Hovland, who took advantage of the tee being moved up on the par-4 14th. His tee shot nearly went in and he settled for a tap-in eagle on his way to a 67.

Phil Mickelson had another exciting day, minus the meltdown at the end of his round. He opened by chipping in for birdie and making a 12-foot eagle putt. With the tee moved forward on the 14th hole, the par 4 guarded by a pond right of the green, he hit driver to 10 feet and had to settle for birdie.

Morikawa had made 22 cuts in a row to start his pro career, a streak that ended two weeks ago at the Travelers Championship. That was three short of the streak Tiger Woods put together when he turned pro.
