RIO GRANDE, Puerto Rico (Feb. 23, 2004) - Freshman
Rhys Davies (Bridgend, Wales) fired a sterling 4-under 68 in the second round of the Puerto Rico Classic Monday at the Rio Mar Country Club River Course. With that effort, Davies currently stands tied for ninth at 3-under (73-68=141) and helped the Bucs rise from 15th to 12th in the team standings.
On the team leaderboard, Oklahoma (283-280=563 -13) holds a three-stroke edge over second-place Florida (289-277=586 -10), while the Bucs (304-289=593 +17) improved by 15 strokes over the first round score and are 30-strokes back of the top spot. On the individual leaderboard, Clemson's Matt Hendrix has the top spot by two strokes after firing a 67 on Monday. He is six-under for the event. Hendrix is two strokes better than his teammate Jack Ferguson and Oklahoma's tandem of Anthony Kim and Carlos Del Moral.
