The second day of the 2015 Valero Texas Open came to a close on Friday, with Jimmy Walker taking a one-stroke lead.
Arnold Palmer: 'Tiger Woods Has to Regain Confidence'
Charley Hoffman and Aaron Baddeley sits one stroke behind. Kevin Na and Jordan Spieth round out the top five. Below is recap of the second day's events (via PGA Tour).
What They're Saying
Jimmy Walker: "I was just kind of around the hole, didn't make anything, and then finally got one to go on six. I hit a good iron shot, just got it on top of the ridge there on 7 and made that putt. And that 12-footer I made for birdie on the par-5 [8th hole], that was a nice little finish."
Jordan Spieth: "I would like to see a little bit more wind than today on the weekend to have a chance to shoot a few under and make up some ground. Overall, I'm very pleased with today. I got a really good draw today, on top of yesterday, and took advantage."
Kevin Na: "We definitely got a break in the afternoon wave yesterday and I think we're catching another break today. Sometimes you need a little break. When you do get one you need to capitalize."
Trivial Fact of the Day
Since 2000, six of the 15 second-round leaders of the Valero Texas Open have gone on to win the event. Boasting a one-stroke lead, history is on Walker's side.
