​Lucas Glover sits atop the ISCO Championship leaderboard after posting a two-day total of 13-under, a feat he accomplished through the first 36 holes at Hurstbourne Country Club without recording a bogey. This marks a strong start to a second consecutive week with consistent, high-level play. Glover’s impressive early form comes on the heels of a third-place tie at the John Deere Classic in Sylvis, Illinois, where he similarly displayed steady precision.
As the field narrows to the weekend, the cut line was set at three-under par, eliminating 68 players and advancing them to Round 3, which is scheduled to begin at 9:10 a.m. local time. Right behind Glover, Chan Kim and Steven Fisk share the second spot on the leaderboard at 11-under, heading into the weekend’s play.
The champion of the ISCO Championship will collect $720,000 in prize money, along with 300 FedEx Cup points and a two-year exemption on the PGA Tour. In a notable performance among the contenders, defending champion William Mouw climbed into a share of fifth place with a two-day total of 9-under after carding a 7-under second round. Mouw, who was in the same group as Glover, credited a quirky pre-round routine for a portion of his success: he soaked his putter in hot water the night before. “I told my caddie I was going to do it and put it in some boiling hot water. Funny enough, it stayed hot all day, and I’m going to do it again tonight,” Mouw said. “Whatever works, because I wasn’t making any putts, and today I made four or five that dropped, which is nice for a hot putter.”
Hurstbourne Country Club is playing to a par-70 layout for this week’s tournament, featuring two par-5s, twelve par-4s, and four par-3s. The blend of scoring opportunities and risk-reward holes has contributed to the tight leaderboard and the anticipation of a compelling weekend chase.
