VIDEO: J.J. Henry Aces No. 5 For Lead At Byron Nelson Championship
J.J. Henry made the turn of his final round at the Byron Nelson Championship tied atop the leaderboard thanks to an ace at No. 5. The big TCU grad (and local favorite) hit a pitching wedge into the short par-3 at TPC at Four Seasons.
