Thirty-year-old Martin Trainer is your 36-hole PGA Tour leader, and it’s been a long time since we could say that. After winning the 2019 Puerto Rico Open for his maiden PGA Tour victory, Trainer has fallen on hard times on Tour. He played 21 events in 2020 and missed the cut 19 times. Last year, he missed 23 cuts in 27 starts. He then missed five-straight cuts to start the new season.
But that was then. Now, that lengthy missed-cut streak is over. After opening this Houston Open with back-to-back 65s, Trainer is in first place and in prime position to do the unthinkable and capture his second-career Tour victory.
Because the second round was suspended Friday night and players were forced to complete their rounds Saturday morning, those who made the cut will be grouped in threesomes for Round 3 using split tees. Thanks to his leading score, Trainer will tee off in the final grouping on the front nine at 1 p.m. ET alongside Kevin Tway and Adam Long.
