World No. 1 Dustin Johnson needed a big-time bounce-back after opening with a 2-over 72 on Thursday, and the odds-on favorite delivered on Friday, firing a 4-under 66 to launch himself over 40 spots up the leaderboard to put himself within shouting distance of the lead with two rounds left to play.
Another big name to keep an eye on? Jason Day. The Aussie’s rounds of 67-68 have him tied for second at 5-under overall and trailing leader Sam Burns by only two shots. Day has 12 career Tour victories but is seeking his first win in over two years while 24-year-old Burns is hoping to notch his first Tour win.
First-round leader Brandt Snedeker is also still in the mix at only three shots back, and former Houston Open champ Adam Scott trails by four.
