50 for two days now, Tommy 'Two Gloves' Gainey is contending on PGA Tour Champions
Two days after turning 50, Two Gloves is contending on the PGA Tour Champions. Tommy Gainey, known for wearing golf gloves on both hands, celebrated his 50th birthday on Aug. 13, just 48 hours before he teed it up in his first senior event. And so far, so good, as Gainey shot 6-under 64 at the 2025 Rogers Charity Classic. Gainey was tied for the clubhouse lead with Shane Bertsch at Canyon Meadows Golf & Country Club in Calgary before Steve Alker also shot 63. Charles Schwab Cup points leader Miguel Angel Jimenez later matched Alker's 63. Still, Gainey will start his second round Saturday just a single stroke off the pace. Tommy Gainey won a PGA Tour event in 2012 Gainey played in four PGA Tour tournaments this year, all opposite-field events, and posted finishes of T75, T53, T61 and MC. In his PGA Tour career, he has one career win, the 2012 McGladrey Classic, and three Korn Ferry Tour wins, two coming in 2010 and the third in 2020. Gainey played in only five PGA Tour events in 2024 and was among those who had to go to PGA Tour Q-School last winter but he came up short of a fully-exempt card for 2025. He only made $21,000 in 2024 after missing five of six cuts. His last full season was 2023, where he missed 11 of 16 cuts. But now he's starting a new journey on the Champions circuit and so far, so good.

Robert MacIntyre posts a 64, builds five-shot lead over Scottie Scheffler at BMW Championship
Scheffler spent the steamy afternoon trying to keep in range. He had to settle for six pars at the end for a 65 and was at 9-under 131, at least booking a spot in the final group. Advertisement Ludvig Aberg shot 64 and was another stroke back. It was the largest 36-hole lead at the BMW Championship since Jason Day led by five shots in 2015 at Conway Farms. Day went on to win by six. 'It's only 36 holes gone. There's a long way to go,' MacIntyre said. 'I'm comfortable with who I am. I'm comfortable with the team around me, and I'm comfortable on this golf course. Just go and play golf.' Bobby Mac woke up feeling dangerous. — PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) He has made it look as easy as it sounds on a Caves Valley course that has been renovated, lengthened, has new greens and still hasn't put up too much resistance without much wind. MacIntyre still putted well, except for the 5-foot birdie he missed on the 18th and another birdie chance inside 8 feet on the eighth hole. He has gained 6.8 shots on the field in putting through 36 holes to lead the key putting statistic. Advertisement But he was rarely out of position even when he missed a fairway or green. 'Yesterday the putter was on fire. Today I felt like my iron play was exceptional,' MacIntyre said. 'Obviously, coming from links golf back out to throwing darts is a bit different technique-wise, turf-wise, so it took a little bit of readjusting, but I've got the hang of it.' Scheffler had his 15th consecutive sub-70 round and pulled within five shots on No. 12 when he hit a 4-iron from 221 yards to 7 feet for birdie. But he had only two reasonable chances from the 15-foot range the rest of the way. Scottie Scheffler carded a 65 Friday to earn a spot in the final group for Saturday's third round at the BMW Championship. Nick Wass/Associated Press 'Bogey-free is always nice,' Scheffler said. 'I would have liked to get to have gotten a couple better looks down the stretch, but didn't hit as many fairways the last few holes, and out here with the way the holes are shaped, you've got to be in play. Did a good job of saving pars when I needed to on the back.' Hideki Matsuyama has yet to make bogey over 36 holes, even more remarkable because he has been feeling ill this week. That much was clear when he came out of scoring and headed straight for the car, a Japanese television crew hustling to try to catch up with him. He shot 64 and was alone in fourth place, still seven shots behind. Michael Kim had a 66 and was in the group tied for fifth that included Tommy Fleetwood (69), still eight shots behind. The position on the leaderboard is more meaningful to Kim than how far he is behind. The top 30 in the FedEx Cup advance to the Tour Championship next week, and Kim needs to finish around this spot to advance. Advertisement This game is a head scratcher sometimes 😅 — PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) Kim and Harry Hall, who had a 67 and was tied for eighth, were the only two projected to move into the top 30 with 36 holes still to play. Hall, the Englishman who played his college golf at UNLV, has quietly had a good year and is turning heads with his efficient swing and improved putting. He has four top 10s and has missed only three cuts in 23 starts. Hall has finished out of the top 25 only once in his last 10 starts. As much as he wants to be at East Lake, he now is in the conversation for the Ryder Cup. He says he has received a few text messages from European captain Luke Donald, but he has not been fitted for a uniform. Rory McIlroy, playing for the first time since the British Open, was paired with Scheffler for two days. He overcame an early double bogey to post a 66, leaving him 10 shots behind. 'I think I'm just playing my own tournament at this point,' McIlroy said. 'I just want to try to play a good weekend and feel a little bit better about my game going into the Tour Championship. 286 yards to 7 feet 🤯 — PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR)
