Birdie: Brandt SnedekerGlass half-empty of half-full? That was the question for Snedeker entering Friday's second round after shooting a front-nine 31, back-nine 38, roller-coaster 69 the previous day. He apparently chose half-full, coming back with a two-under 68 after shaking off a double bogey on his second hole of the day. The
new putter that Snedeker put in his bagseems to be friend rather than foe; he's needed only 28 putts in both his opening rounds.-- R.H.
