Luke Donald's Not Ready to be World's Best Player

Luke Donald's Not Ready to be World's Best Player

The 33-year-old English star shot a 6-under 65 on Friday to take the lead halfway through the PGA Tour event. Donald is ranked third in the world behind No. 1 Martin Kaymer and No. 2 Lee Westwood. However, Donald would jump to the top with a win at Harbour Town, no matter how Westwood fares this weekend at the Indonesian Golf Will Be The Game Of Young Guys Masters.Westwood had a one-stroke lead Saturday after the completion of the suspended second round at the Indonesian Masters. Kaymer isn't playing this week.

The 33-year-old Donald hasn't let talk of No. 1 distract him through two rounds, finishing at 10-under 132 for a one-shot edge over first-round leader Garrett Willis (69).Donald has gradually found his game the past few seasons on Pete Dye's treacherous layout. Donald finished second two years ago, then was third behind Furyk in 2010.Donald began the round three shots behind Willis and quickly moved in front with five birdies on the front nine. After a bogey on the 10th hole, Donald moved in front again a hole later with a 20-foot birdie putt from the fringe. An 8-footer on the par-5 15th brought his final birdie and he parred in to break 70 for the eighth time in his last nine rounds in the event."The last couple of years, I've come here playing reasonably well, where I've had control of the golf ball, which is very key at this place,'' Donald said.Donald has several capable players close on his tail. Willis closed with a birdie to draw within a stroke. Furyk continued his strong play at Harbour Town - he's shot in the 60s 10 of his last 12 rounds - with a bogey-free outing. And the talented Villegas is having his best tournament of the year after missing five of his first eight cuts.
