HOUSTON — Scottie Scheffler opened with two straight birdies and was on his way Friday in the Texas Children’s Houston Open, tying the Memorial Park record with an 8-under 62 for a one-shot lead when the second round was halted by darkness after a two-hour storm delay Friday.
It was the most complete round of the year for Scheffler, who missed the first month of the season recovering from a glass puncture in his right palm that required minor surgery.
The only green he missed was on No. 2 — his 11th of the round — and he holed that from just inside 30 feet for birdie.
