Peter is tied for 39th at the halfway mark at the AT&T National event in Maryland adding a second consecutive round of 70 to be at even par.
Birdies at his final two holes on day one made today's task a litle easier but as Peter headed out with an afternoon tee time, he still needed a good solid round on the quality Congressional Country Club layout if he was to be around for the weekend . A three putt bogey at his opening hole today was clearly not the way he wanted to start but he would make up for it at the third with a monster putt for birdie from 60 feet.
He then holed another lengthy putt for birdie at the 5th after finding the left rough but a bogey at the converted par five 6th after missing the green left had him back to even par for the day. A missed short putt at the 12th led to a bogey and he was dangerously close to the cutline but a birdie at the uphill par four 15th from 25 feet had him back at even par.
Peter was unable to birdie the par five 16th but he safely parred the final two holes to be comfortably inside the cut mark of 2 over.
Congressional Country Club holds good memories

Peter is in Maryland this week for the AT&T National event at the famed Congressional Country Club near Washington DC after a slight change of fortunes in recent weeks. After what has been tough start to the season, Peter played well last week in Hartford and his stats prove that his long game is finally coming around..
"I was pretty happy last week. I gave myself a lot of
opportunities and hit many good putts that just didn't fall. Hopefully we are just around the corner from a really good week. The course this week is in perfect condition except the
fairways are very soft which in a perfect world I would prefer to be dry. As usual I have put some serious hours into the chipping
side of my game and I believe it is the final piece of the puzzle. Fingers crossed I can keep building on the last few
weeks."
Peter has fond memories of Congressional Country Club as it was here twelve months ago that he produced a course record equalling final round of 63.
Peter will tee it up at 8.50am with Corey Pavin and Jason Bohn
