World number one Scottie Scheffler saw his lead cut to four shots after fellow US players Collin Morikawa and Xander Schauffele closed the gap during a weather-disrupted second round at the Tour Championship. <\/b><\/p>\n
The two-time major winner, who started the tournament at 10 under par thanks to his position as leader in the FedExCup standings, had a seven-stroke lead over his two rivals after the opening round following an impressive opening 65 in Atlanta. <\/p>\n
Bidding for his first FedExCup title, Scheffler birdied two of his final three holes after a weather delay to card a second-round 66 and to take himself to 21 under par. <\/p>\n
“I feel like my swing is in a good spot. I’ve hit it nice the last couple of days,” Scheffler said. <\/p>\n
“A lot of quality stuff out there, and yeah, in a good spot going into the weekend.”<\/p>\n
Morikawa is four back from Scheffler after hitting a 63, the best round of the day, to take sole possession of second place on the leaderboard. <\/p>\n
The 27-year-old dropped only one shot on the 11th hole and finished his round with back-to-back birdies. <\/p>\n
Xander Schauffele is one shot back from Morikawa, with whom he was tied after round one, and remains in the hunt for the \u00a319m prize after a second-round 64. <\/p>\n
Northern Ireland’s Rory McIlroy is tied for 10th place on eight under par. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
