Chez Reavie was able to finish his second round on Friday, while many were forced to wait until Saturday morning because of the rain that plagued Glen Abbey on Thursday.

Reavie took advantage of the favorable scoring conditions, firing a 7-under 64 to get to 13-under 129 total for the 36-hole lead.

A total of 80 players made the cut, which fell at 1-under 142 total when the second round concluded on Saturday morning.

Positive movers

Brian Davis -- The Englishman tied Reavie for the lowest second-round score with a 7-under 64. That, along with Davis' opening 2-under 69, put him at 9 under for the tournament heading into the third round and within four shots of Reavie.

Anthony Kim -- He was tied for the first-round lead, but backed up after a 69 in the second round. Even still, what Kim accomplished in the second round -- particularly on the back nine -- makes him a positive mover. After a double-bogey, bogey start, and a 5 over front nine, Kim bounced back to shoot 7 under on the back with two eagles.

Steve Marino -- The second-year player who is still looking for his first TOUR win shot matching 67s in his first two rounds for an 8 under total. He'll start the third round trailing by five shots. But, with scoring the way it's been at Glen Abbey, those shots can certainly be made up.

Negative movers

Sean O'Hair -- The PODS Championship winner was one of the first-round co-leaders in Canada. However, he struggled in the second round with an even-par 71. On a course like Glen Abbey where scores are low, shooting even par means you get leap-frogged by the field quickly. At 6 under O'Hair isn't out of it by any means, but he'll need to channel those first-round vibes for the weekend.

John Huston -- He was a part of the large group who shot 65 in round 1. However, round 2 was a struggle for Huston. He shot a 1-over 72. That resulted in a 21-spot drop and into a tie for 22nd.

Jason Day -- The much-heralded TOUR rookie had a share of the first-round lead after a 65. The second round was a different story for the Aussie. Day trudged around Glen Abbey, shooting a 4-over 75 and dropped into a tie for 48th.

On the number

Bob Tway -- The former Canadian Open champion shot a 4-under 67 in the second round to earn a spot on the weekend. That score was seven shots better than what Tway shot in the first round.

Chad Collins -- The TOUR rookie rallied in the second round with a 5-under 66 that helped him jump from a tie for 141st to a tie for 58th. It's the sixth time in 15 events that Collins has made the cut. His best finish was a tie for 11th last week at the U.S. Bank Championship.

Bryan DeCorso -- The Canadian fired a 4-under 67 in the second round and will be able to stick around for the weekend in his national championship after soaring from a tie for 126th to a tie for 58th.

Notable missed cuts

Stephen Ames -- The RBC Canadian Open is like a fifth major for Ames, but the Canadian failed to make the cut with his 1-over total for 36 holes.

Bubba Watson -- The long-hitting lefty fired a 2-under 69 in the first round, but couldn't carry it over into the second round where he struggled with a 2-over 73 to miss the cut.

Richard Johnson -- The Richard Johnson with no "S" that is. The Welshman shot a 4-under 67 in the first round, but had a hard time in the second round with his 4-over 75 and was unable to make the cut.
