When action resumed, Scheffler picked up right where he left off with a birdie on the 1st, as he once again shredded the front nine at TPC Craig Ranch. He backed that up with birdies on Nos. 2, 5, 6 and 7, including a near hole-out as he danced the ball around the cup on the 6th.

Scottie Scheffler made the turn in 29 on his way to a 10-under 61 for a two-shot lead over Rico Hoey and Jhonattan Vegas at the CJ Cup, with Cameron Champ among six players another shot back at 64.
