The combination of a soft course and a golfer right on top of his form, has produced a tie for the 36 hole scoring record on the PGA tour by David Toms..
Here is a report from pgatour.com
Coming off a playoff loss Sunday to K.J. Choi in THE PLAYERS Championship, the 44-year-old Toms tied the mark of 124 set by Pat Perez in the 2009 Bob Hope Classic. Perez had rounds of 61 and 63.
Already off to another impressive start before a 2-hour weather delay in the middle of his second round, Toms took full advantage after heavy rain softened the course and the wind stopped. On the eight holes he completed when play resumed, he had four birdies -- and came up just short of two more.
"I came out and the conditions were perfect for scoring, and my mindset was to just keep making birdies, try to separate myself a little bit," Toms said. "I just went out and played great the last eight holes or so, some of the best golf I've played in a long time."
Steven Bowditch (64) and Charlie Wi (67), who finished before the delay, were tied for second with Mark Wilson (66) and John Senden (66). Wilson played in the same group with Toms.
