Wilkinson in good position in California

9:48 am on 7 February 2010

The Palmerston North golfer Tim Wilkinson is well placed at the halfway stage of the latest US PGA event in California.

The left-hander is tied for fourth after firing a second round four under par 67 at the Northern Trust Open.

He's four shots behind the leader, the United States' Dustin Johnson.

Some of the players have been forced to complete their rounds today after a weather interuption.

Wilkinson, who is recovering from a shoulder injury, has entry to a limited number of tournaments on the PGA Tour this year.
