Michael Thompson is in the middle of his most consistent stretch of play on the PGA Tour ever so it doesn't come as a surprise that he made the cut at this year's PLAYERS Championship despite having missed the cut in this tournament in his previous three appearances. He used a great three under par round on Thursday to put himself in good position and followed it up with a one under par round on Friday to ensure his opportunity to play the weekend. He is currently four under par for the tournament and is tied for 29th.

He will play Saturday's third round, also known as moving day, with Justin Rose. They tee off at noon EDT.
