- [Revised] Nine balls found the water on No. 17 (which brings the week’s total to 12). The famous hole played as the eighth-hardest hole on the course on Saturday, which is five spots harder than the first round. However, one group found it to be easier than most, as the 9:30 a.m. pairing (Emiliano Grillo, Sean Kelly and Beau Hossler) all carded birdies on the island green.
- After a second-round 73, Yosuke Asaji finds himself with a two-day total 147 (T9), which is good enough for the top spot among international players in the field. If that isn’t impressive enough, this is Japan’s first appearance in The Junior PLAYERS Championship.
- Over the event’s first three years, the winning score has been pretty consistent. Bobby Wyatt won at 6-under-par in 2009, while Evan Beck (2008) and Morgan Hoffmann (2007) each carded 7-under-par totals. With four players at 2-under-par or better, the 2010 Junior PLAYERS Championship seems to be following the trend.
