Florida unaffected by 30 mph wind gusts, shooting 68 on Torrey Pines' South Course to get to 12 under through two rounds; Jon Rahm makes cut with late rally
Golfers like to pull a few blades of grass and toss them into the air to gauge the wind before hitting a shot.
First-round co-leader Sam Ryder seemed oblivious to it all, grabbing the lead outright with a 4-under 68 on the South Course, one day after opening with an 8-under 64 on the North. He is 12-under for the tournament at its halfway point. They will be joined by Argentina’s Tano Goya. He is in third place, five shots behind Ryder, after shooting 67 on the North Course. Goya shared the low round of the day with Rahm.
Then there was Peter Malnati, whose chip shot on the South’s par-3 11th hole was interrupted when half a dozen trash cans came rolling down the hill like a zombie invasion. The top three on the leaderboard were followed by a logjam in fourth place, where six players were tied at 6-under.
