John Rollins failed to parlay his opening 65 at the Shell Houston Open, settling for a 2-over-par 37-37=74.

He hit 12 greens in regulation at Redstone today but managed only one birdie, that a 64-inch conversion at the par-4 11th hole, his second of the day. He'd go on to miss four attempts from inside nine feet, including a three-footer for par en route to a three-putt at 18. At 5-under 139, he's two strokes back of the 36-hole clubhouse lead.

John Rollins crafted a bogey-free, 7-under-par 33-32=65 in his opening round of the Shell Houston Open and finished one stroke back of the clubhouse lead.

Rollins has enjoyed a nice turnaround after a dismal second half of 2012. He's 7-for-8 this season with five top 25s. Today at Redstone, he landed 15 greens in regulation and poured in seven birdies, three of which measured 10 feet or longer. The highlight of the loop was a 30'7" beaut at the 11th hole. He was in the second group off the first tee today but his score might stick as the low round among the late draw.

John Rollins followed his opening 68 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational with an even-par 35-37=72 in his second round.

Rollins went just 2-for-13 in birdie opportunities today, and erased those two birdies with bogeys at 14 and 15. In fact, he's fortunate to avoid an over-par score thanks to his birdie at the par-4 third hole given it measured 29'2". He's 4-under 140 through two rounds, five strokes back of the overnight leaders.

John Rollins carded a 4-under-par 34-34=68 in his opening round of the Arnold Palmer Invitatinal, finishing three strokes off the clubhouse lead.

Despite the expanse between his score and clubhouse leader Justin Rose, Rollins sits in second place by himself. He hit 14 greens and many of his approaches tight. This is evidenced by the fact that his only birdie conversion (of five) measuring over nine feet was 40'11" at the fifth hole. His only hiccup during the round was a three-putt bogey at the famous par-5 sixth hole.

John Rollins enjoyed plenty of success on the West Coast Swing, but enters the Arnold Palmer Invitational struggling to bring that form to the Florida Swing.

After making each of his five cuts with four top-25 finishes to start the year, he has a missed cut and a T70 to show for his efforts since then. His history is spotty at Bay Hill, but he does own a T5 here in 2007. It's hard to peg Rollins on a weekly basis, and this week is no different. He's only a prudent play in deeper games.

John Rollins posted a 6-under-par 32-33=65 in his second round of the Northern Trust Open to reach the midpoint in 8-under 134, one stroke off the 36-hole clubhouse lead.

Rollins landed just 11 greens in regulation today but he succumbed to only one bogey, that a 5 at the 15th hole. Maximizing his chances elsewhere, he surrounded the miscue with one eagle and five birdies, four of which finding the cup from beyond 13 feet. His most notable conversions measured 46'7" at the 12th hole and 22'11" at 16, but he also recorded a zero-putt eight-yarder from just off the putting surface at 1. That chased a par save from 10'6" at the par-4 18th hole where he flubbed his chip from the rough onto the fringe.

John Rollins has opened the Waste Management Phoenix Open with a pair of 5-under-par 32-34=66s.

Rollins is 3-for-3 to start the year to help ease concern over his forgettable second half of 2012. Thus far at TPC Scottsdale, he's hit 30 greens in regulation and buried 13 birdies. Of today's seven birdies, five found the cup from beyond 10 feet and four of those measured 15'2" or longer. The highlight of the round disappeared from 26'1" at the sixth hole. At 10-under 132, he's two strokes in arrears of the 36-hole clubhouse lead.

John Rollins signed for an 8-under-par 32-32=64 in the third round of the Humana Challenge to join a growing group in the clubhouse tied for second at 17-under 199.

Rollins was a birdie buster, circling 10 birdies while giving back two bogeys and firing at flag sticks all day. He played alongside 54-hole leader Scott Stallings, and the good vibes clearly went both ways. Expect Rollins to continue to try and take it deep when he moves from the Nicklaus Course back over to the Palmer Course in Sunday's final round.

John Rollins spun a ho-hum 59th-place finish on the 2012 PGA TOUR money list in 2012.

Rollins came just shy of the $1.5 million dollar mark, making the cut in 15 of 26 events with nine top 25s and five top 10s. With 339 events as a litmus test, the book on Rollins is to catch him while he's hot and ride him in brief spurts. He tends to be more of a factor on easier courses and is capable of taking it deep from time to time.

John Rollins enters the second leg of the FedExCup Playoffs at the Deutsche Bank Championship 58th in the current standings.

Though he’s made just 12 (of 22) cuts, he’s done the most with his chances. He owns five top 10s and four additional top 25s. Though he hasn’t missed a stop at TPC Boston since 2004, he last cracked a top 25 when he tied for 15th in 2005. The putter is the key, as he’s notched a top 25 in every event in which he’s gained strokes on the field with the flat stick.

John Rollins is set to take on the field at the Wyndham Championship.

Though he missed the cut at last week's PGA Championship, Rollins has reason to be optimistic. He tied for third in 2010 when Arjun Atwal lifted the trophy. The Texan enters the week second in total driving and 13th in ball-striking.

John Rollins posted a 2-under-par 35-33=68 in the final round of the Travelers Championship to secure his fifth top 10 of 2012.

Rollins put together quite the colorful scorecard, circling four birdies and an eagle while squaring four bogeys. In all, he hit 15 GIR but needed 31 putts to navigate those putting surfaces. He finished the week at 12-under 268 and will take the next week off rather than tee it up in the AT&T National.

John Rollins spun a third-round 5-under-par 33-32=65 at the TPC River Highlands to reach the 54-hole mark of the Travelers Championship at 10-under 200, becoming the first to reach that total.

Rollins had quite the colorful scorecard, circling eight birdies, one bogey and a double-bogey five on the eighth hole. While his 15 GIR were impressive, just as impressive was his gaining over three strokes on the field with the flat stick while needing just 26 putts to the tune of a 1.571 average. Should he hoist the trophy on Sunday, it would be his fourth PGA TOUR victory and first since the Reno-Taho Open in 2009.

It has been a feast-or-famine year for John Rollins, and he hopes to have a week similar to his second-place tie in 2011 at this year's edition of the Travelers Championship.

Rollins has made the cut in nine of his 16 events, almost missing the weekend as many times as he's seen it. Of those nine cashes, he's found his way inside the top 25 eight of those times. Steady across the board, he ranks 28th in both driving distance and GIR and 29th in driving accuracy. That adds up to 10th in ball-striking.
