On October 30, Beijing time, the second round of the Bermuda Championship was successfully completed. Unlike the first round of the fierce wind, the second round was played in windless weather, and the players' scorecards were very eye-catching. The most prominent performer was Canada's Taylor Pendris, who shot a 61 (-10) and soared 25 places in the rankings to jump to the top spot with a one-stroke advantage (total -11).
Patrick Rogers shot a 64 (-7) and moved up to second place alone. Vincent Willie trailed the leader by 2 strokes and remained in third place alone. 39-year-old inspirational rookie David Skinnings is in T4 with Lee Jin-ming.
Patrick Rhett is in the T17, Garrick Higg is in the T34, and Chinese teenager Wu Biyuan is in the T46.
Breaking the 18-hole record, Pendris "no wind and waves"
There are 23 PGA Tour rookies in this week's roster, including 30-year-old Canada's Taylor Pendrys.
In the calm weather conditions of the second round, his performance was "windless", and the 61 (-10) result was not only his career minimum (previously 65), but also the record for the lowest number of 18 holes (previously 62).
Pendrys played well
Pendris had just finished his marriage two weeks earlier, and the groom officer had shot just 70 (-1) in the first round, and he made a big splash from the back nine in the second round, grabbing five birds in a row and six birds in the first nine holes without bogey.
Precision cut bar on No. 2
After the transfer, Pendry continued the fiery feel, capturing the Eagles on the 17th hole of the lowest difficult "chance hole" in the whole game, and 3 birds were included. Throughout the round, he swallowed only one bogey on the 13th hole.
Pendrisse's ranking suddenly soared 25 places, jumping to the top with a -11 result, with a 1-stroke lead. He finished third on the "average putting number of putts on par greens" (1.538) and tied for first place (12) in bird catches.
Catch birds on the No. 5 hole and rise to a tie for the lead
"It felt a lot easier to play than yesterday and yesterday's weather was the worst I've ever experienced in the race. It's good to survive, the batting effect is not the most important, just hit the ball. Today's situation is a world of difference. Pendris said in an interview.
A total of 15 players are 5 strokes or less away from Pendris, who will attack the first win of his PGA Tour career.
Rogers was second alone, the 39-year-old rookie in T4
Rogers cut the eagle
29-year-old American player Patrick Rogers played well this round, scoring a 64 (-7) of 1 hawk, 6 birds and 1 bogey, moving up 8 places to a single second place. His current overall record is -10, just one stroke behind the leader.
Behind Rogers is Third Vincent Willy (round-4), behind T4's Lee Jin-ming (round-4) and David Skinns (round-4).
The 39-year-old veteran Skinnys passed the Glorious Tour test last season to earn a full card on the PGA Tour this season. After 16 years of career change, he was already planning to retire, but after letting it go, he finally made his dream come true.
In a phone call with his family, Squiggins could not hide his excitement: "After years of long waiting, I was on the verge of collapse..."
The best ball of the tournament came from Matthew Fitzpatrick, the second on the 17th hole, who attacked the flag from a distance and left him with an easy eagle push after the ball stopped rolling.
Red in the second round
After two rounds, the promotion line is E, Patrick Reid (T17, total -5), Garrick Higg (T34, total -3), Matthew Fitzpatrick (T34, total -3), Wu Biyuan (T46, total -2), Camillo Wiegas (T63, total E) and so on.
Bermuda native Brian Morris, who played with a wild card, regretted not qualifying, and the 53-year-old "anti-cancer fighter" had a total of +39 after 36 holes.
