Second-Round Notes – Friday, February 12, 2021
Weather: Partly cloudy. High of 60. Wind NW 10-20 mph.
36-hole cut: 67 professionals at 1-under 143 from a field of 156 professionals. Note: Because the amateur portion of the tournament was canceled for 2021, the cut rule was changed from low 60 and ties to standard PGA TOUR rule of low 65 and ties. This had no effect on the cut made.
