Kenny Perry hit every fairway in yesterday's second round on Silver Rock. This is the 25th time in Perry's career where he has hit every fairway in a round. (This last occurred in the third round of the 2007 Memorial Tournament.)
Boo Weekley's 11 total birdies in Friday's third round on PGA West beat his career-best total birdies in a round by three. (His career record before Friday was eight in the first round of the 2007 Mayakoba Golf Classic.)
