MacIntyre Has a Big Finish and Builds 4-Shot Lead in the Texas Open
MacIntyre’s 14-under total set a new 36-hole mark as he built a four-shot clubhouse lead with two rounds remaining.
- On Friday, Robert MacIntyre shot a second-round 64 to reach 14-under-par at the Valero Texas Open, breaking the 36-hole record at TPC San Antonio by two shots.
- Ranked 11th in the world, MacIntyre entered the tournament to be "sharper going into Augusta" for next week's Masters, having skipped San Antonio last year.
- Playing alongside Ludvig Aberg and Jordan Spieth, MacIntyre described his iron play as "dynamite," recording his first eagle of the season on the 14th hole.
- With a four-shot lead over Aberg, MacIntyre maintains command while overnight leader Mark Hubbard collapsed to a 77, including six bogeys and a double bogey on the 5th.
- Following Akshay Bhatia and Brian Harman, MacIntyre seeks to become the third successive left-hander to win this pre-Masters event, building momentum for his Green Jacket bid at Augusta.
