Team Daly was the team to watch out for and they have proved it right so far. John Daly II overshadowed his father and has impressed everyone with his short game and putting skills. They were incredible throughout the round right from hole one and finished their round on a high note with an eagle on the finishing par 5. Team Daly carded 60 and stand just a shot behind the leaders.
Meanwhile, the most surprising team of the day was team Player. The evergreen 86-year-old Gary Player was hitting darts with his irons and drained a few putts as well to finish with -10.
