The Oregon product chases an up-and-down 68 (1 eagle-3, 4 birdies, 4 bogeys) with a somewhat less volatile 68 (4 birdies, 2 bogeys) to improve to 2-for-4 in the championship, posting a T35 on last visit in 2019 at Pebble Beach GL (66-71-79-69). Overall, this is his 10th major, has now made his last seven cuts in a row, and is in prime position to better a pair of T17’s, most recently two major starts ago at last season’s 103rd PGA (Kiawah), where he was T50 at halftime (69-79-72-68). The 2018 TOUR Rookie of the Year, who arrived off a solo 2nd two weeks ago at the Memorial, gained 0.50 strokes off-the-tee on Friday, 1.56 on approach, 0.93 around, and 1.02 on-the-green with 28 total putts.
