2015 Wells Fargo Championship - Weekend Update

The second round of the 2015 Wells Fargo Championship at Quail Hollow Golf Club has just concluded and the leaders going into the weekend are North Carolina native Webb Simpson and Robert Streb at 10-under and with a two shot lead. Simpson took hold of his share of the lead through consistency, shooting a pair of 67's whereas Streb shot a 65/69, which was the lowest round on Thursday. The cut was also set at even par this week.

Quail Hollow is playing fair so far. The average round seemed to be just above or below 70 and the club house lead so far is still Streb's 65. Any round in the high 60's was very good and probably put you in a good position going into the weekend.

Our picks this week are doing well as now. Rory McIlroy is tied for 5th at 7-under, as is Phil Mickelson. Bill Has is 2-under and tied for 42nd. Rory said in a post-round interview that he was in solid form and his score shows it. He shot a bogey-free 67 today. I find it interesting that Phil claims Quail Hollow is a poorly designed course, but he always plays well here despite this. He shot a 66 today and is a sure favourite for many going into the weekend.

Colt Knost also made headlines today by making a hole in one on the par 3 227-yard 17th hole. The hole-in-one, aside from being a great feat on it's own, resulted in Colt going from just missing the cut to just making the cut. He sits at T55 at 1-under.
