How to watch American Express on Saturday
Groundhog Day is more than a week away, but it’s starting to feel very much like it’s come early this year at the American Express.
World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler followed up a stellar opening round with a sparkling second round to reach 17 under at the halfway point. Once again, Scheffler is the lead in a PGA Tour event.
But Scheffler has some company at the top of the leaderboard as he hunts his 20th career Tour victory. Blades Brown, who is just 18 years old, burned the edge of the cup on his final hole Friday to just miss out on a 59. Still, his 12-under 60 set a course record for the Nicklaus Tournament Course at PGA West.
It also gave Brown a share of the lead with Scheffler with 36 holes to play.
Because this week’s tournament is played at three courses, there is no 36-hole cut. The entire field will tee it up in Saturday’s third round before the cut is made ahead of the final round.
