After an hour rain delay this morning in Iowa City at Finkbine Golf Course, Clive’s Jake Weissenburger (above) kept the putter hot during round two of the 122nd Iowa Amateur.

Weissenburger carded another impressive 67 (-5) and is leading by two. He played the course almost mistake free even with the wet conditions.

“The course had a little softer greens, fairways, and the greens were rolling well considering the overnight rain,” Weissenburger said.

His focus was to play today’s round one shot at a time which helped him to card six birdies.

“I kept the mistakes to a minimum, other than the bad bogey on nine, I played really well and kept it to a shot at a time,” Weissenburger added.

Sitting two shots back in solo second is Dusty Drenth from Davenport. Drenth put together a sparkling bogey-free 66 (-6). He credited his round today to solid play.

“Honestly my game was solid. I made a few mistakes, drove the ball really well, and putted solid. My lag putting along with making the needed putts was there,” Drenth said.

With the heavy early morning rains, officials determined to play lift, clean, and place in the fairways. Drenth knew he could take advantage of that.

“I had to play aggressive today and make sure to hit the fairway so I could clean my ball,” Drenth added.

Going into the final round Drenth knows he has to make some birdies.

“Jake has played really solid today and yesterday and you know he is going to be making birdies tomorrow. So I will continue to play aggressive and make birdies,” Drenth said.

Sitting in solo third is first round leader J.D. Anderson from Johnston. Anderson was unable to capture the spark he had on day one, but still managed another under par round, with a 71 (-1). He sits three shots shy of the lead at -7 for 36 holes.

Going into the final round Anderson knows he has to make up some ground.

“I am going to have to be aggressive, nobody is going to back up and this course has a lot of birdie opportunities,” Anderson said.

Play for the final round will begin starting at 7:30 on #1 and #10 tee.
