He is currently seven shots back from the projected mark to earn a PGA TOUR Champions card.

Rick Garboski, who has made one career start on PGA Tour Champions, carded a 9-under 62, posting the lowest score from the second round. After three bogeys on his scorecard in the first round, he made a big jump in the second round, with seven birdies and an eagle on no. 18 to end the day in solo second at 10-under 132.
Fran Quinn, Richard Green and Jesus Rivas share a third-place lead with 36 holes remaining in the final stage.
