Greg Norman and David Duval in the Top 10 after two rounds? Wow. My trifecta bet on Norman, Duval and Gordan Brand Jr. doesn't look so foolish now, does it?

And wasn't Padraig Harrington's wrist supposed to be killing him? That's a very nice leaderboard.

Norman, age 52, went out early and shot 70. Then Duval, previously believed to be deceased, went out late and shot 69 with a nice up-and-down for par on the last.

With a handful of players still on the course (but none near the leaders), there have been 12 sub-70 rounds posted on Friday. The fact that Duval had one of them is remarkable.

But perhaps David discovered something, turned a corner, within the past couple months. In his two most recent tournaments, he made his first cut of the year at the Stanford St. Jude in early June; then last week at the John Deere Classic - although he missed the cut - Duval had his first sub-70 round of the year.

Duval suprises me even more than Norman. Duval has been trying the past five years, and getting nowhere. Norman's just been tending to other business. Norman has shown glimpses of still having the talent, he just doesn't play enough.

And let's give kudos to Phil Mickelson and Ernie Els for not throwing in the towel. Those 12 sub-70 rounds? Mickelson and Els had two of them, Mickelson recovering from an opening 79 with a 68; Els rebounding from an 80 with a 69. Phil is all the way up to 37th (again, I'm writing this with a few players still on the course, so that specific placement might change); and it looks like Ernie will make the cut, too.

John Daly? 89.
