Brendan Steele fired rounds of 66-68-70-66 to post a 10-under-par 270 and tie with one other for second place at the Zozo Championship in Japan last week.

The native Idyllwilder posted an eagle and 18 birdies against 8 bogeys and a double. Individual performance statistics were not available from Japan, but highlights included his day-one play of the 376-yard, par-4 10th hole, where he canned his second shot for an eagle 2.

Brendan has now moved way up to 10th on the FedExCup points list for this new season, and he now stands 88th in the Official World Golf Ranking.

B will take this week off, but he told the Town Crier that he’ll play next week in the $7.2 million World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba on the El Camaleon Golf Club in Riviera Maya, Mexico.
