Players to Watch for in Round 2

Daniel Summerhays

After being -5 through just 15 holes, Summerhays gave himself a lot of leeway heading into the second round.

In the middle of Round 1 he had great consistency by hitting par or below par on 11 straight holes. Provided that keeps up, Summerhays will runaway with the Memorial.

Spencer Levin

Closing day one at -5, Levin was on fire until he double-bogeyed hole 16. Provided he tees off the second round even remotely close to Round 1 and Levin will easily contest for the victory.

We saw his potential after an eagle on the seventh hole, so it'll be interesting to see if he maintains that elite play on the front nine. 

Tiger Woods

Despite getting a double-bogey on hole 18, Tiger Woods hit par or better on every other hole in Round 1. Sitting nicely at -2, Woods has the veteran experience to coast through the second round.

Provided he can get a few more birdies than day one and remain on par otherwise, Woods will quickly move up front.
