Notes
- 295 tied for the fourth-best round of the 36-hole day. It was the fourth best of the afternoon.
- Played the par 5s at 2 under for the day, 3 under over the second 18. Cooper led with 1 under.
- 18 birdies were evenly distributed between the five Mocs with five each for Fernandez-Tagle and Cooper, four from Healey and Stevenazzi and three by Foresta.
- Cooper's four birdies in the afternoon were one shy of her season best. Oddly enough all four occasions of four or more birdies on a card came in round two. (5-Mason Rudolph Rd2/Mercedes-Benz Rd2/Westbrook Rd2)
- Healey's 15 pars in round two ties her season high (Mason Rudolph Round 1).
- Big change from round one to two was one score higher than bogey in round two improved from five in the early 18.
