This week: PGA Tour's John Deere Classic, Thursday through Sunday, TPC Deere Run, Silvis, Ill.

Moore's third- and fourth-round scores: Two 2-under-par 69s.

Stanley's third- and fourth-round score: 2-under 69, and a 1-under 70.

Position: Moore and Stanley (8-under 276) both finished tied for 34th, 12 strokes behind winner Steve Stricker (264).

Recap: On a day when both locals had to play 36 holes, their showings were solid. Moore, of Puyallup, had bigger thoughts, however, and needed to keep up the sizzling start to his final round when he was 4-under after eight holes before making a pair of bogeys in his next three holes. … Stanley, the Gig Harbor product, is 2-for-2 in cuts made as a professional, and has yet to record an over-par score in eight rounds.

Next: Stanley will play in the U.S. Bank Championship in Milwaukee starting Thursday at Brown Deer Park Golf Club while Moore will take this week off after playing four consecutive tournaments.

This week: Nationwide Tour's Ford Wayne Gretzky Classic, Thursday through Sunday, The Georgian Bay Club, Clarksburg, Ontario, Canada.

Fourth-round score: 3-over-par 74.

Position: Putnam (2-over 287) finished tied for 62nd, 22 strokes behind champion Roger Tambellini (265).

Recap: On two occasions, the Tacoma golfer was 1-under on his round, but a string of bogeys – six in 11 holes, including two on par-5 holes – sent him near the bottom of the leaderboard.

Next: Cox Classic starting July 23 at Champions Run Golf Club in Omaha, Neb.
