Second Round Recap

Kenny Perry was on fire for a second straight day, making 11 birdies to shoot a Champions Tour career-best 10-under-par 62 on Saturday. Perry’s round matched the course record at the Talon Course at TwinEagles. More importantly, his 36-hole total of 18-under 126 established the all-time lowest score in relation to par for the first two rounds in Champions Tour history. Perry’s number easily shattered the previous ACE Group Classic tournament record by four strokes. Larry Mize, the first-round leader of the event, backed up his 62 yesterday with a 5-under 67 today but despite being bogey free for the first two days, he trails Perry by three strokes.

Tournament Facts

Kenny Perry’s best 36-hole score in his PGA TOUR career at a par-72 course was 14-under 130 at the 2001 Buick Open at Warwick Hills G&CC in Michigan. He went on to win that event by two strokes over Chris DiMarco and Jim Furyk. Numerically, Perry’s low on TOUR was 12-under 128 at the 2005 Bank of America Colonial and he went on to win that event by seven shots over Billy Mayfair.

Kenny Perry’s 62 today was also the best second-round score in tournament history. Both Al Geiberger (1996) and Jay Overton (2003) had posted 63s on Saturday at this event.

A player has come from behind to win the ACE Group Classic 12 times, including six of the last 10 years. 13 of the previous 24 events in Naples have been decided by either a playoff or just one stroke.

The winner of The ACE Group Classic has come out of the final grouping in each of the last 11 years. The last time it didn’t happen in Naples was 2000 when Lanny Wadkins fired a final-round 64 to rally from three strokes back to force a playoff that he eventually won.

Dating back to last year, the tournament winner has played in the final grouping in the last 12 events on the Champions Tour. The last time the winner was not in the last grouping was at the 2011 Nature Valley First Tee Open at Pebble Beach when Jeff Sluman was in the third-to-last group.

There were 53 rounds under par today compared with 47 rounds under par on Friday at TwinEagles. Of those 53 rounds, 39 were in the 60s compared to 27 sub-70 scores yesterday. The stroke average for the field today was 69.949, compared to 70.962 on Friday. Overall, there were 9 eagles and 354 birdies today vs. 11 eagles and 327 birdies in Round 1. 10 of the 18 holes are averaging a score under par through the first two rounds and the par-5 13th hole is playing as the easiest (4.516) hole.

Tomorrow’s winner will earn 240 Charles Schwab Cup points. Kenny Perry, the tournament leader does not have any Schwab Cup points yet in 2012. Dan Forsman, the current Schwab Cup leader, is currently T11 through two rounds of the ACE Group Classic. Points are only awarded at each event for top-10 finishes and at the conclusion of the season, the player earning the most Schwab Cup points will receive a $1 million payout.

Loren Roberts, a two-time ACE Group Classic champion and the last player to win at TwinEagles in 2006, ran his streak of par/better rounds in Naples to 20 straight with a 3-under 69 today. Of the 20 consecutive rounds at par/better, he’s carded 12 scores in the 60s and has a scoring average of 69.00.

Larry Mize and Mike Goodes, an open qualifier on Tuesday, have not made a bogey over the first 36 holes this week…Bernhard Langer has eagled the par-5 17th hole both Friday and Saturday…Hale Irwin and Tom Lehman have missed just two fairways through the first two rounds (26/28)…Larry Mize leads in greens in regulation (33/36)…Kenny Perry has had just 51 total putts for two rounds.

Mark O’Meara withdrew after nine holes today with the flu. He was 4-over for the tournament when he withdrew.

Because of the threat on afternoon thunderstorms, final-round play will begin at 9:15 a.m. (ET) tomorrow.

First Round Recap

The first round of The ACE Group Classic was held today at The TwinEagles Club in Naples. Larry Mize finished the day at 10-under par (62) and is currently two shots clear of the field. Russ Cochran, Tom Lehman and Kenny Perry all fired an 8-under 64 to put them into a tie for 2nd place. Second round action begins at 10:15 a.m. Saturday morning.

First Round Recap
The TwinEagles Club (Talon)         February 17-19, 2012
Naples, Fla.                                Purse: $1,600,000
Par/Yards : 36-36—72/7,193          Charles Schwab Cup points: 240

Leaderboard
1. Larry Mize -10 (62)
T2. Russ Cochran -8 (64)
T2. Tom Lehman -8 (64)
T2. Kenny Perry -8 (64)
5. Mike Goodes -7 (65)

Larry Mize hit all 18 greens in regulation and his eagle-birdie finish gave him a 10-under 62 in the opening round of the 2012 ACE Group Classic, good enough for a two-stroke lead over Russ Cochran, Tom Lehman and Kenny Perry. Mize’s bogey-free round matched his career-low score which ironically was posted on Friday 27 years ago at Riviera, the site for this week’s Northern Trust Open on the PGA TOUR. Mize’s previous-best on the Champions Tour was 64 twice, most recently at the 2010 Montreal Championship which led to his only victory to date on the circuit.

Larry Mize’s 62 today was the lowest first-round score on the Champions Tour since Nick Price opened with 11-under 60 at Newport Beach CC in last year’s Toshiba Classic. Price went on to win the event. Mize’s score also matched the lowest first-round score in tournament history. Gary Koch had 62 on the Talon Course in the opening round of the 2004 ACE Group Classic.

Interesting Facts
They don’t call it The TwinEagles Club for nothing! Mark McNulty made consecutive eagles on Nos. 13 & 14, a first on the Champions Tour since Fred Couples made back-to-back eagles in the final round of the 2010 Senior PGA Championship at Colorado Golf Club near Denver. McNulty hit a 4-wood second shot to within eight feet of the hole at the par-5 13thand made the putt. On the 441-yard, par-4 14th, McNulty’s 6-iron shot from 164 yards found the cup. It marked the first time McNulty had consecutive eagles in his professional career.

Loren Roberts, a two-time ACE Group Classic champion and the last player to win at TwinEagles in 2006, ran his streak of par/better rounds in Naples to 19 straight with a 1-under 71 today.

After 36 players broke par at The Quarry in the opening round of last year’s ACE Group Classic, there were a whopping 47 rounds under par on Friday at TwinEagles, including 27 scores in the 60s. The stroke average for the field today was 70.962 compared to 71.802 at The Quarry on Friday last year. It was also the lowest first-round scoring average at TwinEagles since 2004 (70.727). Overall, there were 11 eagles and 327 birdies made today compared to four eagles and 117 birdies in Round 1 at The Quarry last year.

In addition to Larry Mize, Russ Cochran (-8), Mike Goodes (-7), Jim Carter (-4) and Jim Gallagher, Jr. (-3) all had bogey-free rounds today.

Defending champion Bernhard Langer shot 6-under 66 today, his sixth straight sub-70 score in Naples. He’s now a cumulative 35-under-par over the six rounds. Lee Trevino (1990-1991) and Mike Hill (1993-1994) are the only two players to defend titles at the ACE Group Classic.

Tom Lehman registered 10 birdies today, the most by a player in the field. Lehman’s run of five consecutive birdies (Nos. 13-17) established the best birdie streak on the 2012 Champions Tour.

Kenny Perry’s 8-under 64 today was his best round on the Champions Tour since posting 10-under 62 on the final day of the Greater Hickory Classic at Rock Barn last year. The last time Perry had 64 or better in the opening round of a TOUR-sponsored event came when he tied his career-low score, shooting 61 in Round 1 of the 2009 Travelers Championship on the PGA TOUR.

Michael Allen (66), Jay Don Blake (68), John Cook (69) and Jay Haas (66) have now started the 2012 Champions Tour campaign with seven consecutive sub-par rounds.

Andy Bean withdrew after two holes on Friday due to a pulled groin. Jay Sigel withdrew after nine holes with a left thumb injury.

The ACE Group Classic: What to Watch For

The 25th anniversary of The ACE Group Classic officially starts at 10:30 a.m. on Friday morning. As the tournament approaches, here are a few things to watch for:

1. Can Bernhard Langer Defend His Title?

Langer’s 2011 wire-to-wire win was truly remarkable, as he posted scores of 64-66-66 to finish four shots in front of Fred Funk and set The ACE Group Classic record for lowest total score at 20-under par. Last year’s title was Langer’s 14th on the Champions Tour. Langer should definitely be considered a favorite to capture this year’s title.

2. Notable Newcomers

Tom Lehman, Corey Pavin, Brad Faxon and Kenny Perry will all be competing in their first ACE Group Classic. Lehman put together an impressive year in 2011, winning three times, including a major title at the Regions Tradition, while also finishing at the top of the Champions Tour money list. Pavin, coming off his first Champions Tour win last week at the Allianz Championship, looks to continue his solid play. Perry and Faxon, who have 22 career PGA TOUR wins between them, are looking at 2012 as their opportunity to put their stamp on the Champions Tour. This group of newcomers should definitely play a factor in this year’s outcome.

3. A Return to TwinEagles

For the first time in tournament history, The ACE Group Classic will return to a venue that previously hosted the event. The TwinEagles Club hosted the tournament from 2002-2006. After several days of practice rounds, the course has received nothing but positive reviews from Champions Tour players.  “The golf course (at TwinEagles) is very nice. It’s all pretty much right in front of you. There’s not a lot of trickery out there”, said Corey Pavin. He continued, “if the weather is going to be like it is now, which I think it is, I think there could be some pretty decent scores shot here.”

Other Spectator Tips:

  • Be sure to pick up a pairings guide before heading out onto the course.
  • Enjoy all the latest updates in tournament action from the ease and comfort of your smartphone! Download the SportsPASS app on your iPhone or Android and then add The ACE Group Classic as an event to receive all pertinent information.

  • Fifth Third Bank ATMs are located near the Insperity Driving Range as well as near the Naples Daily News Putting Green.
  • Restrooms are located throughout the course as well as the practice area and clubhouse.
