This week: PGA Tour's FBR Open, Thursday through Sunday, TPC Scottsdale, Scottsdale, Ariz.

Second-round score: 4-under-par 67.

Position: Moore (6-under 136) is tied for seventh, three strokes behind leader Nick Watney (133).

Recap: Two solid rounds are in the book for the Puyallup golfer, who is certainly in contention for his first PGA Tour title. The Cascade Christian graduate didn't make a birdie at the rowdy par-3 16th, but he did in the two holes before and after, including driving the green on the 332-yard, par-4 17th and sinking an 8-foot putt on the 18th to go out in 33. His birdie on the fifth hole left him alone in the lead – briefly – at 7-under before a late bogey set him back, and Watney caught fire. His 10 total birdies are tied for fifth in the field.

Tee time Satuday: The second round will resume at 7 a.m. PST, with the third round beginning an hour later off the first and 10th tees. Moore will likely be in the third-to-last group with Brian Gay and Scott Piercy.
