HOUSTON - It was a gusty Friday at Memorial Park Golf Club.
Tall pines were swaying and the big oaks were rattling in the stiff breeze during the second round of the 2024 Texas Children’s Houston Open. On a day when scoring was hard to come by for most, it wasn’t for the defending champion.
Tony Finau had the round of the day by two shots, and he tied a tournament record for 18-hole scoring that he also tied in 2022 en route to his victory. Then there was Scottie Scheffler, who had a challenging day but looked to close strong until a blunder on the final green.
The two are in contention, but there are a host of others near the top of the leaderboard looking for their first PGA Tour victory, setting up a fun weekend in Houston.
