The next strongest pairing is the one facing off against the same contenders as in the first round. Scottie Scheffler, who is at T26, and Jordan Spieth, who is at T38. The two have put up a meticulously crafted round, with Scheffler taking the lead with a 2-under 69, but Spieth is carding double the number of birdies as compared to Scheffler’s 2 birdies! It is going to be an interesting one to witness again!

Finally, it was the pairing of the two Top-10 contenders, Seamus Power, at the second position, and Patrick Cantlay. Cantlay is on the T10 of the leaderboard, running just 2 strokes behind Power! Will he be able to catch up and rise ahead on the leaderboard? The match is surely going to be a roller coaster ride!
