2024 Sony Open leaderboard, scores: Chris Kirk in prime position for back-to-back wins after Round 2

2024 Sony Open leaderboard, scores: Chris Kirk in prime position for back-to-back wins after Round 2

Kirk looks to kick off his new year with back-to-back wins in the Aloha State

It is a crowded leaderboard heading into the weekend at the 2024 Sony Open at Waialae Country Club with a trio of unassuming players sharing the top spot. Carl Yuan, Austin Eckroat and Byeong Hun An all stand at 9 under at the halfway point and in search for their first career victories on the PGA Tour. Last week's Sentry winner, Chris Kirk, missed out on a chance to join the lead late in his second round but remains in prime position at 8 under to kick off his new year with consecutive triumphs in Hawaii. 

If Kirk raises the trophy come Sunday, he would become the first player since Justin Thomas in 2017 to win the "Hawaii Double." The world No. 21 would not only join Thomas but also Cameron Smith, Zach Johnson, Vijay Singh, Ernie Els and Jim Furyk as the only men to win both The Sentry and the Sony Open in their careers. After rounds of 66 and 65, Kirk looks well on his way to doing so.

Kirk and the rest of the leaders will have plenty of pursuers with which to contend; every player who made the cut is within seven strokes of the lead entering the weekend. Among them are players such as Ben Griffin and Kurt Kitayama, who signed for the low Friday rounds with 8-under 62s, and Cam Davis who signed for the same score on Thursday. PGA Tour winners Keegan Bradley, Akshay Bhatia and Harris English sit at 7 under with eyes on contending over the weekend.
