This week: PGA Tour's Buick Open, Thursday through Sunday, Warwick Hills Golf and Country Club, Grand Blanc, Mich.

World rankings: Moore is 115th; Kelly 1,256th.

Moore's 2009 earnings: $997,727 (58th on the PGA Tour).

Kelly's 2009 earnings: $18,538 (238th on the PGA Tour).

Last tournament: Moore played in four consecutive tournaments, and made the cut in all of them – capped by his tied-for-34th showing at the John Deere Classic in mid-July (8-under 276). And Puyallup golfer has been on fire, posting scores of par or better in 11 of his past 12 rounds. The UNLV All-American would crack the $1 million barrier for the fourth consecutive season if he makes the cut this week. … Kelly, a Tacoma resident, would like nothing more than to celebrate his 31st birthday Sunday with a huge paycheck. He missed the cut at last week's Canadian Open (even-par 144).

Moore's tee time Thursday: 10:12 a.m. PDT off the first tee with J.J. Henry and Dicky Pride.

Kelly's tee time Thursday: 10:48 a.m. PDT off the 10th tee with Jamie Lovemark and Roland Thatcher.

University Place's James Feutz knocked a few strokes off his score in the second round of the 34th Junior PGA Championship, but knows he'll have to make one huge jump to survive by day's end Thursday.

"A 65," he said.

As it stands, after his 4-over-par 76, Feutz, the sophomore at Bellarmine Prep, is tied for 56th at 13-over 157 – 23 strokes behind leader T.J. Vogel, of Florida.

The top 30 after Thursday's third round at TPC River's Bend in Ohio will make the cut. Feutz is seven strokes behind that right now.

"I felt like I hit shots well enough (Wednesday) to shoot a 65. Then I had a triple bogey on my 11th hole," he said.
