Enjoying the best weather Pebble Beach has to offer is one thing. Brandt Snedeker knew he had to take advantage of it with his golf clubs, too.

Snedeker played bogey-free at Spyglass Hill in abundant sunshine and warmth Friday for a 5-under 67 to share the 36-hole lead with Matt Jones in the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. Jones had a 66 at Spyglass.

They were at 12-under 131.

Justin Hicks shot a 68 at Monterey Peninsula and was one shot behind.

John Daly, who started the second round one shot behind, didn't make a birdie over his final 11 holes at Monterey Peninsula and shot a 72. He was six shots behind, and has to play well Saturday to avoid missing his 11th straight cut at this event.
