Miller 2 up After 14

-Billy Condon

Here is the recap for holes 6-14. Stitzer's tee shot on 7 went OB and Miller capitalized by winning the hole to go 1 up.

On 8, Stitzer's first shot wound up in a greenside bunker while Miller found the green. After a great out, Stitzer and Miller halved with pars.

The next big moving hole was 10, where Miller found the green in two shots and Stitzer missed the green on his second shot and could not convert the par. Miller 2 up thru 10.

On the downhill par-4 twelfth, Miller chose to hit driver and found the hazard. Stitzer was in the fairway and after both players got on the green, Miller rolled his par opportunity well past the hole. He then conceded the hole to fall back to 1 up over Stitzer.

On 14, Stitzer's tee shot hit the trees on the left and came to rest well behind Miller's drive. Up at the green, Miller lay two and Stitzer three. Miller nearly sank the birdie opportunity and won the hole to go back to 2 up.
