HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. — Steve LeBrun knows better than anyone how long he’s waited to play championship golf on the PGA Tour. LeBrun also understands he’s only halfway down the road to what he hopes to achieve at the RBC Heritage.

The 34-year-old PGA Tour rookie shot a second straight 68 on Friday to share the lead with Kevin Streelman and Charley Hoffman in the rain-delayed second round. There were 17 golfers still on the course when the round was called. The rain was forecast to continue overnight before the front moves out to sea and brings cooler temperatures — but no rain.

Hoffman, like Streelman, followed an opening 66 with a 70, while Luke Donald (68) and Bill Haas (69) were a stroke back.

The biggest surprise was the poor play of Brandt Snedeker, at No. 5 the highest-ranked player in the field but who is expected to miss the projected cut of 1 over at Harbour Town Golf Links. Days after leading the Masters on Sunday before faltering, the 2011 RBC Heritage winner opened with a 73 and followed with a 71 to finish at 2 over.

“It feels good,” he said. “It’s one of those things I always knew I had the game to be out here and I plan on being in this position a lot of times,” he said.
