What is the cut line at the 2025 CJ Cup Byron Nelson? Updated information as round 2 continues on Saturday
World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is leading the field after finishing round 2 at 8-under par for a total score after Friday’s round of 18-under par, 6 shots ahead of his closest competitor.
The PGA Tour heads to McKinney, Texas this week for the CJ Cup Bryson Nelson, one of two tour events played in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
The TPC Craig Ranch will play host to the action, with the entire field chasing world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who is looking to record his first win at the tournament. Scheffler is 18-under par after two rounds and will be able to rest on Saturday until his tee time for round three, which will be late afternoon as some golfers have yet to begin round two. A rain delay made a mess of things on Friday and now many golfers will have to get to the course early Saturday morning to finish (or even begin) round three.
