Thorbjornsen’s 2nd Round 

Thorbjornsen posted a first round 70 and bounced back in a big way in the second round. 

After opening with a bogey, Thorbjornsen bounced back with a birdie on the second hole and another on the sixth hole to turn at one-under. 

He then went crazy on the back nine. 

The Stanford star birdied the 10th hole, then made four straight birdies from the 12th through 15th holes. 

He closed with an eagle on the 18th hole to shoot 64 and tie for the lead.
