Ex-UNC star Mark Wilson tied for lead at BMW Championship
Posted Sep 17, 2011
Coming off his best round of the year, Justin Rose figured it couldn't get much better in the BMW Championship. He was good enough Friday for a 3-under 68 and a share of lead with Mark Wilson. It was even better for Wilson, a former North Carolina golfer who now considers Cog Hill a home course after he moved to the area. Wilson again had a large following of friends and family, and he treated them to a good show.
