2 min read

Leaders Robert Damron, Cameron Beckman. Damron and Beckman followed up first round 5-under par 67s, with 6-under par 66s Saturday. “Most of the guys have played the course maybe only four times, but as they get used to it, they are going to figure it out,” Beckman said.

Right There

Brett Quigley, Jesper Parnevik, Heath Slocum. Slocum fired one of three 64s Saturday – Tom Scherrer and Billy Andrade had the other two – and joins Quigley and Parnevik at one stroke back.

Scherrer, Craig Barlow, Jerry Kelly, Chris DiMarco, Kenneth Staton and Scott Laycock are two back

Toughest Hole

The par-4, 461-yard No. 15. After yielding 11 birdies Thursday, No. 15 proved even stingier Saturday, ceding only four birdies.

The lucky guys?

Carl Paulson, Matt Kuchar, Mark Calcavecchia and Jason Gore. The par-4 hole played at an average of 4.227 strokes.

Easiest Hole

The par-5, 526-yard No. 16. After 143 players shot no worse than par Thursday, hole No. 16 did play tougher Saturday, stealing 10 bogeys. There were 66 birdies, down from Thursday’s 94.

Shot of the Day

Michael Standly aced the par-3, No. 17. The hole, 193 yards in length, played only 168 after the tee was moved.

Standly recorded his first Tour hole-in-one when he dropped a 7-iron two feet from the cup and got a fortunate roll.

Quote of the Day

“It’s going to be a birdie-fest.” – Cameron Beckman, on Sunday’s final 36 holes.
