The Players Championship 2015: Live Leaderboard Scores, Standings from Saturday
Kevin Na and Jerry Kelly are leading the way heading into third-round play Saturday at the 2015 Players Championship. Na backed up a five-under 67 on Thursday with a three-under 69 to maintain a share of the lead after two rounds.
Kelly used a seven-under 65 on Friday to leap into his place alongside Na on the leaderboard.
Those two are the players who have shined the brightest, but there are plenty who are still in strong contention. Only three shots separate the top 13 players on the leaderboard, and stars like Jim Furyk, Rory McIlroy, Adam Scott and defending champion Martin Kaymer are within three or four shots of the lead.

Tiger Watch
Despite a few solid shots sprinkled through the first two days of play, Tiger Woods still hasn't found any consistency at The Players Championship. He barely made the cut when he birdied the 16th hole on Friday to get to even par for the tournament. Through 10 holes on Saturday, things had gone from bad to worse for Woods.
Heading into the 11th hole, he was four over par. When he is at his best, he devours par-five holes. On Saturday, he had double bogeys on both of the par-five holes on the front nine. The rest of Tiger's tournament will amount to trying to establish some sort of consistency before he takes the course again in his next outing.
Fowler Primed to Stick It to Doubters
Recently, Sports Illustrated polled PGA Tour pros about their peers. The results labeled Fowler as the most "overrated."
Fowler took umbrage with the label—as well he should have—and responded with this quote before first-round play on Thursday, per Will Gray of the Golf Channel: "I guess top fives in four majors aren't that good. Like I said, I'll take care of my business, and I'll be just fine."
Through two rounds, Fowler is just two shots behind the leader at six under par. He has 10 birdies and just two bogeys. Fowler's consistency has been pretty amazing over the past year.
It seems only a matter of time before he becomes the latest young star of the sport to win a major tournament. The Players Championship isn't technically a major, but a win at TPC Sawgrass should get Fowler some respect.
