Today’s second round tee times for the $20 million tournament are scheduled to start at 7:45 a.m. and play will continue through the day. The tournament concludes Sunday afternoon, with the winner collecting a $3.6 million paycheck. See B1 for more about The Sentry tournament.

His sponsor, Adidas, has pledged to match his donation.
