• Billy Horschel played the opening hole about as perfectly as possible. He laced a drive 381 yards down the right of the fairway, then used a 3 wood to bomb his second shot to the green. The ball spun back to about four feet from the hole. He finished out for an eagle.

• On the 11th hole, Collin Morikawa put his first shot into the left bunker and then misfired again from the sand, sending the ball to the fringe past the green. But he saved par with a brilliant recovery — a perfectly paced right-to-left putt that dropped in from 62 feet out.

• Amid a Saturday surge that saw Xander Schauffele climb up the leaderboard to finish at 7-under overall, he nearly aced the par-3 11th. He landed his 192-yard tee shot just 13 inches from the hole, drawing a roar from the gallery before he tapped in for birdie.
