Two-time champ Vaughn Taylor in front

[truebluefan]

Vaughn Taylor's only two career wins on the PGA tour have come at the Reno-Tahoe Open, where he's making a bid to claim a third after a 6-under-par 66 on Friday gave him a one-shot lead over Will MacKenzie.

Taylor had an eagle and four birdies, then parred the last five holes to move to 9-under 135 at Montreux Golf & Country Club, where his victories in 2004 and 2005 make him the 13-year-old tourney's only two-time winner.

"It's good to come back to a place you've played well," said Taylor, 35, who grew up and still lives near Augusta, Ga.

"I'm sure those other guys would say the same thing," he said. "A lot of good memories, a lot of good vibes, and you almost feel like you kind of pick up where you left off."

Steve Flesch, the 2007 champion, shot a 69 and is tied for third with Hunter Haas and first-round leader Nick O'Hern at 7-under 137. Haas had a 67, O'Hern a 72.
