**Kaymer Shares LIV Lead Ahead of U.S. Open Return**
Martin Kaymer shared the halfway lead at the LIV Golf Invitational Boston on Saturday, putting himself in contention for a win ahead of his return to the U.S. Open.
Kaymer, a two-time major champion, is making his first appearance in a LIV Golf event since the PGA Tour suspended players who joined the Saudi-backed series.
He shot a 4-under 66 in the second round at The International Golf Club to move to 9-under for the tournament and share the lead with Australia’s Cameron Smith.
Kaymer, who won the U.S. Open in 2014 and the PGA Championship in 2010, will be one of the players to watch when the U.S. Open gets underway at The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts, on Thursday.
His strong performance in Boston suggests he is in good form ahead of the major championship, which is one of the four men’s golf majors.
