On a perfect scoring day in Canada, Americans Kyle McCarthy and D.A. Points moved one shot clear of the field as they head into the weekend at the inaugural Ford Wayne Gretzky Classic presented by Samsung, and they're having fun.
"Today is one of the few days where you get to walk off the course and say yes to the question 'did you have fun today?," said Points, an Ocoee, Fla., resident, as he signed his scorecard at Raven Golf Club for a 62 (-10) and a two day total of 131 (-12). The three-time Nationwide Tour winner had 10 birdies and 8 pars.
"Anytime you have more birdies than pars in a round is a good thing, but I wouldn't be a professional if I didn't say I left a couple out there. And I did, I only made one putt outside of 10 feet all day, the rest were all pretty close," said Points. Tying his career-low round of 10-under, Points knew it was going to take something special to get back into contention.
"Before I came out here today I knew the scores were going to be low," said Points, currently No. 34 on the money list. "The wind wasn't blowing and the course isn't overly demanding, I'm not saying the course is easy because there are definitely great tough holes out here, but it won't beat you up."
