Heavy rains on Friday afternoon caused a delay and the second round was not completed until Saturday morning. Jeff Maggert was the leader in the clubhouse at 137 (−7) while Langer was at six-under after sixteen holes when darkness suspended play. Langer, the 1985 champion, finished that round with pars and then forged a four-shot lead with a 69 in the third round to equal the best round of the day. Tied for second were Beck and Dan Forsman.

On Sunday, Forsman got within one shot of Langer, but found the water twice at the par-3 12th and the quadruple bogey ended his chances. Langer was even par for the round through twelve holes, then eagled the par-5 13th. Playing in the final pairing with Langer, Beck trailed by three shots at the par-5 15th, chose to lay up, missed the green, and scrambled for par. Langer made birdie for a comfortable lead, which extended to five strokes after Beck bogeyed 16.

None of the five amateurs made the cut; Justin Leonard was the closest at 149 (+5), two strokes shy.
