Utahns dominate day 2 of Utah Open golf tournament
Former Ute Blake Tomlinson takes a two-stroke lead into Sunday’s final.
Utahns have taken the lead in the second day of the 100th annual Utah Open golf tournament, held at Riverside Country Club in Provo. With the top 11 golfers all being Utah natives, the leaderboard showcases the state's golfing talent. Blake Tomlinson, a 27-year-old former University of Utah golfer, claimed a two-stroke lead with a 10-under-par 62, bringing his total to 128.
Tomlinson, who won the 2022 Utah Open, credits his girlfriend Kate, his caddy, for keeping his process consistent. Carson Lundell and Simon Kwon, both former BYU golfers, are tied for second at 130, while Rhett Rasmussen and Tyson Shelley, both ex-Cougars, are tied for fifth at 131. The top non-Utahn is Colorado's Derek Fribbs, who has two Utah Open victories and is tied for 12th at 134.
