Brian Gay is now the leader through his 14th hole in Round 2. He has birdied six of those fourteen holes, including five in a row on holes 4 through 9, for a front nine 30. He is now -5 for the day and -9 for the tournament. The Golf Channel is televising Rounds 1 and 2; CBS provides the weekend coverage beginning at 3 p.m. EST.
Brian's 30 on the front side has been eclipsed only by Craig Barlow, who shot 28 in 2003. By sheer coincidence, I met Craig on Wednesday when he joined John Riegger and me for lunch at Jennings Mill CC, site of this week's Nationwide Tour event in Athens, Georgia. He and John live about two miles from each other in Henderson, Nevada (just outside Las Vegas), but only see each other on tour!
