Just knowing that Ive been there and been able to hit the shots under pressure, I think should help me out moving forward.In his bogey-free second round that began on No. 10, Bryan birdied five of the last seven holes in the on his opening nine, and added birdies on the par-5 second and par-3 seventh.The second round I was able to fire at a lot more flags just because we had ball in hand, Bryan said. The course is not really that long, so got a lot of short and mid-irons into these greens, and the ball is just hitting and stopping, you dont really have to worry about it spinning back too much.Theyre soft enough to where theyre just kind of hitting and reacting, really, really soft. So was able to fire at a few more flags that maybe I wouldnt have normally gone after.Steve Marino was a stroke back after rounds of 66 and 65.Im happy to be done, Marino said. Cant wait to get out of this shirt. Its just so humid out there. ... I played really well today. I played really well yesterday. Finally, feel like Im starting to come around.
