The three-time major champion hit all 13 fairways - a feat he has accomplished only three times in his PGA Tour career - and experienced a stress-free stroll few imagined possible after his opening 18. 1 Scottie Scheffler and fellow Texas Longhorn Jordan Spieth share the lead at 9 under through 36 holes at Albany Golf Club and sit one clear of Brian Harman.Īfter experiencing a rollercoaster first round filled with just five pars, Spieth signed for the first bogey-free effort of the week with his second-round 67.
Tiger Woods may be the story of the week, but it is a couple of other Masters champions who headline the leaderboard at the halfway point of the 2023 Hero World Challenge.
