Finished his morning flight round -2 and currently sitting top 20, but still a bunch of golfers out on the course.

Ryan Palmer had a good day at -4 to get him safely inside the cut line at -5 overall. He'll probably drop drop back to around 30th with the afternoon flight still on the course.

Chandler had a good front 9 going until he double bogied 8. Currently even on the day and flirting with the projected -2 cut line. Needs a couple birdies on the back 9 coming in.

Phillips finished T49 at -5 for the tournament
Palmer cratered. DAL of those that made the cut at 77th for +10

THIS WEEK

- Palmer & Phillips in Mexico
- Arnaus, Erickson, Nacho, & Pavan in Kenya

Phillips with a nice opening round -5 66. Even included a bogey on a par 5.

THIS WEEK:

- Champ, Palmer & Phillips at the Canadian Open
- Erickson, Nacho, Pavan & Veerman in Holland
- Bennett & Maichon in South Carolina
- Bertsch in Wisconsin

Pavan has qualified for next weeks US Open at Oakmont

Maichon making his debut on the Korn Fery with his top5 finish in the PGATU this season.

P is -3 through first 9 and in top 12. Playing the easier of the two courses but heck of a debut start.

Birdie-birdie start for Cam.

Now -4 through 6.

don't forget the ladies, we have several ladies on pro tours and one just finished top 10 at a WUSO

Cam is straight up on fire right now. -12 through 14, in the lead by 2.

Cam finished the 2nd round in the lead at -12. Hope he doesn't Aggie it up and crap the bed over the weekend.

Usually when Cam is on he's on and finishes strong.

First ever bogey free opening 2 rounds for him.

Interesting post-round interview with him talking about his personal struggles and how that affects his game. He said lately things are good off the course and he has been working with somebody so that has translated into him getting out of his own way.

Yeah hung out with his dad for a while at the Chevron Championship and he said basically the same thing

P is playing great in his first KFT event. Sam going to miss cut unfortunately.

At top 5 at the RBC would really help Champ.

WIN: $1.76 million
2: $1.0682 million
3: $676,200
4: $480,200
5: $401,800
6: $355,250
7: $330,750
8: $306,250
9: $286,650
10: $267,050

And Chandler made the cut on the line.

Champ, a three-time TOUR winner, has fallen on hard times in recent years. He lost his TOUR card officially last year and wasn't supposed to be in the field in Canada. Eighth alternate at the start of last weekend, Champ was instead prepping for the Korn Ferry Tour event in South Carolina, where he's played for the majority of the season.

For some reason, he decided to bring his passport to South Carolina, not even thinking that he might need it if he made his way into the RBC Canadian Open field.

"I definitely didn't think I was getting in, especially at eight (alternate)," Champ said. "I know the deadline, some guys will withdraw over the weekend, something like that, but eight, I was like, yeah, probably not getting in. Luckily, I actually brought my passport. I don't know why I brought it. I was like, you know, I'm just going to bring it in case for whatever reason, not even thinking about the tournament. So it all worked out nicely."

Keep it up Champ. Get that card back with a win.

What are the odds that if a Canadian wins the tournament that Adam Hadwin gets tackled again?

Definitely came out of nowhere for Champ but that's golf

Will a win this weekend put him in the US Open next weekend?

Champ is carrying an Aggie score pad in his back pocket. Cool to see.

Based on this, I don't think so.

Six spots are still open for players to get into the field through two remaining exempt categories: top 60 off the World Ranking after the RBC Canadian Open and/or the winner in Canada if that player has won previously on the PGA Tour since last year's U.S. Open.

Seems to be playing a little tight today out of the gate. Hopefully the nerves settle a bit.

He just hit a 400 yd drive, 89 yds from the pin and his wedge approach was nowhere near the pin. That seems to be his round today. He does seem tight.

Commentators said it really was a 400 yd drive!

I think he 2 putted every green on the front 9.

Pretty much his career right there. He missed the green on the short par 3 and just bombed another drive and left his wedge approach 30' from the hole. Makes you wonder what he practices since this has been a problem for so long.

If he could win, he would qualify for the U.S. Open. Of course, that would open up bigger possibilities.

Only player over par in top ~38. One of two over par in top ~55. Definitely a little uptight today.
