Barnes sets the mark as Harrington misses US Open cut

PGA Tour rookie Ricky Barnes posted the target to shoot for at the rain-hit US Open halfway mark as the rain returned to Bethpage Black and Tiger Woods headed the right side of the projected cut line.

Barnes, the 2002 US Amateur champion who earned his tour card this year after six years as a professional, shot a five-under-par second-round 65 in the best of the conditions playing back-to-back rounds yesterday and this morning at Bethpage Black.
