Two Rounds Down & Two to Go at Deutsche Bank Championship
Two rounds down and two to go at the Deutsche Bank Championship in Norton, MA and the tournament is still up for grabs.
It's great to go into the 3rd round with the lead. Brandt Snedeker and Jason Day lead are currently in the lead at -12 but with two rounds left, they still have a lot of work to do. As the field tees off on Sunday morning, there are 16 players within 4 shots of the lead.
Leading the come from behind charge, Matt Kuchar at -11. The comeback kid won last week when Laird opened the door for a playoff by 3-putting on the 72nd hole. Kuchar has played outstanding golf this season and leads the PGA Tour in earnings as well as leading the FedEx Cup standings. With each swing he seems to move closer to being crowned Player of the Year.
(Kuchar looks to win for 2nd straight week and stay at the top of the FedEx Cup Standings)
Also at -11 is Charlie Hoffman. Although making 15 of 20 cuts this year, he has only finished in the top 10 three times and in the top 25 six times. He's playing right now to make finish in the top 75 and play next week at the BMW Championship. He currently sits in 59th place.
Now the Fun Begins
Just two strokes behind the leaders is Luke Donald at 10 under. Although he hasn't won in 2010, he does have a 2nd place and two 3rd place finishes. His recent naming to the European Ryder Cup team might give him the confidence he needs to close on the lead in Boston.
