Once Broke Pro Leading Milwaukee Open
Ed Moehling, a two year tour veteran who quit in 1963, shot 69 to tie Fred Marti for the 36 hole lead at 141 in the Greater Milwaukee Open. Moehling’s late chips and two eagle putts helped offset two bogeys as gusty winds loom. Marti, at 141 after a 70, also benefited from steady play despite a bogey start.
