The American Scottie Scheffler still has a six -stroke cushion at the head of the CJ Byron Nelson Cup, on Saturday, after the rest of the peloton completed the second round which had been interrupted by the rain.
The favorite of the tournament, which is at least 60 in the cumulative after having given the best card of each of the first two rounds, played 61 (less-10), then 63, after its round was interrupted halfway by Dame Nature for six hours. Scheffler’s advance after 36 holes is the most impressive in the history of the tournament.
Sam Stevens, who is from the sector of Fort Worth, but who now lives in Wichita, Kansas, also completed his second course on Friday. It is at least-12 after two rounds of 65. Stevens avoided committing the slightest bugy during its first two rounds for the first time in 82 departures on the PGA circuit.
Ricky Castillo, a recruit on the PGA circuit, and Kurt Kitayama are equally in third place, at least-11.
The Danish Rasmus Hojgaard and the Venezuelan Jhonattan Vegas, who graduated from the University of Texas, located near the site of the tournament, point to less-10.
Jordan Spieth, who played with Scheffler during the first two rounds, succeeded two birds in his last four holes in the second round to climb to less-6 in the cumulative.
The reigning champion, the Canadian Taylor Pendrith, delivered a 71 card on Friday and could not avoid the ax for the weekend rounds, which had been established at Lea-4.
