One of the happiest guys on the PGA Tour, that yellow golf ball on display, and here's what he did.
And no bucket hat today, went with the beanie.
Tough conditions for the bucket hat.
Oh, come on, Peter.
Peter Malnati.
Oh, they cut the greens this morning, we're celebrating in Vegas.
Oh, man.
That's a shame.
Grayson Sig, this is for Birdie up at the green.
You think it at 108.
Pretty solid, that's a wonderful way to start, but just keep making cuts in the fall.
In from the left, needs to kind of hold this up.
Just would love to get off to a good start here, Andre, after that finish that Jeff mentioned in a beautiful drive and a magnificent iron shot.
Yesterday, this is an important one.
Keep that, get now six under in his last 12 holes and a beautiful birdie there.
That cut from that lie, maybe a do there.
Especially with the water, right?
Jaeger for the birdie at the 11th.
Opened with a bogey.
At TPC Summerlin, 2009 and 2020.
11 years apart, he's a two-time champion of this event in Las Vegas.
And tees up today at 192.
This is the hardest hole on the golf course, in off the left wind, and Martin Laird made it look...
And he converts, makes a two there at eight.
That is an incredible birdie.
The second birdie at the eighth hole today.
Nico Galletti, Monday qualified into the week.
Tee shot here at the par three eighth.
Playing nicely today, the eighth.
Nearly 60 yards shorter in round two than it was yesterday in the opening round.
And that is one of the best of the day.
Only two birdies so far at the tricky par three.
And a wonderful opportunity.
Justin Lauer, he's another guy who's below the cut line and needs a couple to go down.
And that will certainly help.
He's going to make it to the final 36.
I don't think even par has a chance.
Now one under definitely will have a chance.
Finds a fairway though.
Over at the third.
Excuse me, Smiley.
Kitayama.
Oh yeah.
That's really good today.
That second shot's playing down off the right.
Back up the hill here.
Going to be a very slow putt.
But the wind is carrying it right into the hole.
If he can get the pace right.
This is very makeable.
Well the pace looks pretty good.
And the putt does too.
Good call, Rog.
That hole was definitely sitting in a little hollow.
Good stuff from Doug Gammon.
Is he going to catch Taylor Penderth before he tees off?
That's the question here, Stevie.
Breeze is still up and blowing.
Gus up to 35 miles per hour.
Bryce Garnett on the way in here.
And a very nice wedge.
Sea Island guy as well.
Chez Reavy at the 15th.
Hit that way up in the air.
You see that wind turning it right to left now.
That's exactly where you want to land it.
Look at this.
That's one of the best of today.
What a fabulous tee shot for Chez Reavy.
And he has a chance.
He's got to do a lot down the stretch here to be playing the weekend.
Well, it's a start.
Maybe you go eagle.
Easy 16th hole.
Par 5.
Get it to even.
Birdie 17.
Get it to 1.
Birdie 18.
McCarty's going to go ahead.
Wasting no time.
Left to right.
And that will make the casino a little more fun tonight.
It certainly will.
You can see him playing a little freer.
Behind the hole.
Putting down the hill.
Did he get it there?
Yes, he did.
And that gets him off the cut line.
He can breathe.
Sigh of relief.
There's nothing better when you just get that extra cushion.
He got it into the hole and in the hole.
Beautiful putt for Ricky.
That was the perfect situation.
You know, it's a downhill putt.
So you feel like you don't have to hit it quite as hard.
This 2 is just about on that same line.
But I don't think it's going to get down there as far.
You'd actually like for this ball to end up in the first cut.
Just to give you a little bit of cushion.
Looks like it's going to probably stay in the fairway.
Which is going to be a tough little shot.
It's not a no-brainer up and down.
That's for sure.
Catching shots then.
Harris English.
Similar spot to Ricky Fowler who made a birdie.
Yes!
Golf clap.
Nice work, Harry.
A couple hours later, you're just in a collar shirt.
Ryan Moore's a tough guy.
He only has a golf shirt on.
One layer for the man who played collegially at UNLV.
Good bunker shot there from that distance.
Neil Shipley putting for birdie.
Trying to get onto the cut line.
And he does.
And he knows it too.
See that fist pump?
These guys know exactly what's going on.
He has a par 5 coming up.
Difficult.
Awkward length.
40-yard bunker shot.
And this is beautiful.
What a way to finish for Ben Taylor.
At the 12th.
Wonderful ball striker.
Just a matter of if that putter cooperates.
And it does for Luke List.
First birdie of round 2.
And now Luke List.
It just is because it's so easy to chunk a shot like this.
You can see he's got it back in the stance.
It's just hard to control the distance.
I think these players are so good.
Nick Taylor.
He's seen it.
That's his 11th birdie of the week.
And it comes after his first bogey.
He's hitting a great shot.
Okay, Rick.
Looking good.
Even when they tell you the Greens are going to be a hair slower,
most of these guys have, you know,
they've played this course several times
and they have putts that they've had historically.
Out on the golf course in what was a very difficult scoring day.
Breeze is beginning to subside here into the evening in Las Vegas.
And Seamus Power fires one in.
Nice and snug.
Trying to track down Taylor Pendrith.
Oh, gave it a scare from Zach.
We're now at 559.
That's time for sundown.
Jonathan Vegas continues on as the horn hasn't blown.
Knew he was going to stuff it right there.
Perfect number.
That'd be a good one to end on for the day.
For Johnny Vegas.
You can see the sun is going down.
In Nevada.
Taylor Pendrith.
He began the day 10 under par.
Leading by two.
And he still is at 10 under par.
Leading by two.
Be interesting to see how he all handles tomorrow morning.
Beginning real early for these guys in the desert.
There's going to be some opportunities tomorrow morning, Steve.
And I think this wave will prove to be the ones that you're going to probably be chasing.
But shout out to those guys like Kirk Katiyama and Doug Gim.
