Tourinho just outside top 20 at PGA Professional Championship, Phillips makes cut

BANDON, Oregon (April 27, 2026) ー Austin Hurt figured his dominant 8-under-par 64 in the opening round of the 2026 PGA Professional Championship would be a tough act to follow.

Demanding greens and pins on the Pacific Dunes course at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort presented a formidable test on day two, challenging Hurt (Bainbridge Island, Wash.) as he looked to maintain his position atop the leaderboard. But the PGA Head Golf Professional at Wing Point Golf & Country Club did more than hold his own, shooting an even-par 71 in Monday’s second round to stay at 8-under and extend his lead to three.

“I stuck with it pretty well,” said Hurt. “I felt like it was a tough day for me out there. I think it’s so wind dependent and weather dependent out here. It was challenging. The pins were challenging, the greens are slightly different. On top of just not feeling entirely confident over the putter, mixed with a few misreads.”

Jeff Kellen (Glenview, Ill.), Charlie Beljan (Mesa, Ariz.) and defending champion Tyler Collet (Vero Beach, Fla.) are T-2, three shots back at 5-under. Eight players are T-5, four shots off the lead at 4-under.

Making the 36-hole cut and just one shot outside the top 20 that would qualify for the 2026 PGA Championship was Southern Hills assistant Andre Tourinho, who shot a 2-under 70 at Bandon Dunes Monday and is at 1-under overall.

Also making the cut was Tracy Phillips of Tulsa, who is tied for 75th after a second-round 74 at Pacific Dunes that included consecutive double bogeys on the front nine. Phillips battled back with a 1-under back nine. He is five shots back of those in the top 20.

Missing the cut were Chris Tidland of Stillwater Country Club (75-72) and Shannon Friday of Oklahoma City Golf & Country Club (75-78).

94 players made the 36-hole cut at 3-over-par. Tuesday’s third round of the 2026 PGA Professional Championship presented by Club Car, Corebridge Financial and Rolex will be broadcast live on Golf Channel from 4-7 pm (PT). A 54-hole cut will take place following the third round to the low 70 scorers and ties.
