What good is mettle if it's never tested? For Martin Laird, that testing has begun in spades, as two straight birdies on 16 and 17 by Matt Kuchar have forced a tie atop the leaderboard at -12.
Laird, two groups behind Kuchar, found himself staring at a birdie putt on 16 shortly thereafter that would have given him the lead back, but the 18-footer was pushed a few inches left. Meanwhile, Kuchar has driven the fairway on 18 and looks to be in decent position to close out with at least a par.
