Scott continues to thrive with ball-striking
May 10, 2013 - 7:15 PM ET
Adam Scott followed his opening 69 at THE PLAYERS with a 4-under-par 35-33=68 to hit the midpoint in 7-under 137 and sit four strokes off the 36-hole lead.
He added 15 greens in regulation today to total 31 for the week thus far. That led the field when he signed his card. However, he's also split 23 (of 28) fairways, which ranks his T3. His average distance of measured drives (308.1) places him second. So, that he's only 7-under is mildly disappointing. He bracketed today's set of six birdies with bogeys at 2 and 18. While an 11-footer for birdie drew applause at the par-3 17th, his highlighted was a beaut of a birdie from 30'4" down the slope at the par-4 fourth.
