The 87th-ranked Sung Kang fired birdies on the par-4 fifth and sixth holes but also made a bogey on the par-3 third hole and another on the par-3 ninth.
Both players are within striking distance of the leader, Sweden's David Lingmerth, who is 2-over through seven holes on Saturday but eight-under for the tournament. American Daniel Summerhays is at seven-under and alone in second place.
The tournament is hosted by Tiger Woods and benefits his foundation, although the American golfing great is absent because he is currently undergoing treatment for use of prescription drugs.
