Players Championship 2017: Tee Times, Pairings and Predictions for Saturday

Louis Oosthuizen and Kyle Stanley sit atop the leaderboard at the halfway point of the Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, and that unlikely pair tamed the famed golf course during the second round.

Both golfers followed their opening rounds of 69 with sharp rounds of 66 Friday. The 34-year-old Oosthuizen has one major to his credit after winning the 2010 British Open Championship, and he has also finished second in three other majors.

However, the South African has never won a tournament in the United States.

Oosthuizen is known for his sweet and consistent swing, and he was interviewed by Mike Tirico on The Golf Channel's broadcast after his round where he said the reason he had gotten to the top of the leaderboard was his putting.
