The moving day of the Charles Schwab Challenge has arrived! And the field has been cut short after the 2-over cutline. After the conclusion of the Friday round, David Riley took his first-ever 36-hole lead on the PGA Tour. Riley shot six birdies with zero bogeys to be 6 under 64 and 10 under overall.
Following the 27-year-old are Hayden Buckley and Pierceson Coody, the two golfers shot rounds of 6 under 65 and are two strokes behind the leader. Riley and Buckley are scheduled to start their Saturday round of Charles Schwab Challenge at 1:55 p.m. whereas Coody will start at 1:45 p.m.
The field’s highlight and the World 1 golfer, Scottie Scheffler, had a dismal opening round with a score of 2 over 72. Many fans cited his arrest as the reason behind his shaky start on the Michigan greens. The 10-time PGA Tour winner seemed to have gained momentum in the second round. The 27-year-old shot a bogey-free round with two birdies on the front nine and two at the back to be 5 under 65 and tied for 15. Scheffler will be starting his third round at 12:35 p.m. with Tom Kim.
