Nature might be trying to tell us something: 2013 will be a unique year for golf. The year's opening tournament, the Hyundai Tournament of Champions, has already been postponed three times due to wind. The world's best golfers were finally able to play, though, and some big names got the year started with a bang.

Because of the unique circumstances, they played two rounds today. Here's where they stand after the second:

1 Dustin Johnson -11 2 Steve Stricker -8 3 Bubba Watson -7 T4 Keegan Bradley -6 T4 Brandt Snedeker -6 6 Tommy Gainey -5 T7 Carl Pettersson -4 T7 Nick Watney -4 9 Scott Piercy -3  


Let's take a look at how some individual performances from the biggest names:

Rickie Fowler (-2)



The young 24-year-old Rickie Fowler started out strong, despite an up-and-down performance. With five birdies and two bogeys, Fowler had flashes of brilliance along with some inconsistencies. Fowler is capable of getting hot very quickly, as he had three birdies over five holes. With another run like that, Fowler could gain the lead very quickly.

His second round, though, was forgettable. Fowler shot a one-over 74 in his second round, with a double-bogey on the third hole. Fowley never made up for those strokes.

Bubba Watson (-7)



The 2012 Masters winner Bubba Watson is right there in contention with a three-under 70 in the opening round. With three birdies and no bogeys, Watson has to be pleased with his steady performance. His big drives were key today, with three par fours over 500 yards. Watson has the skill set to excel at this course.

And excel he did. Watson did even better in the second round, shooting a four-under 69. Watson had a whopping six birdies in his second round, and he is still within striking distance from the leader.
