Scott Vincent noticed on the 16th hole, where he unfortunately bogeyed, that familiar name was up on the top of the leader board.
"That name on the top says Vincent, doesn't it? We can't read Japanese, but those letters looked familiar. I was confirming my wife/caddy and both of us was surprised and said Wow!"

Jbe was able to make the turn with 3 under for the front nine including an eagle on 5th, but as temperature got lower and wind started to pick up, his shot started to go sideways. He did hang on, but when he found out that a buddy from junior days is leading on the top, he got really motivated.

"I caught up with Scott on the final hole!"
He made 2-meter birdie putt to tie with Scott with total 9 under and share the leader's spot.

Their rivalry didn't end inside the ropes. Actually, it heated up outside the rope saying which couple is more patinate.
"Of course, we the Krugers are more patinate to each other. We are older than Vincents and we have shared much more experience than they did. Compared to us they are still too tiny."
Jbe clinched down and put his hand around 1 meter from the ground and said, "this tiny".

Both Krugers and Vincents have won 1 victory in Japan, and they are battling hard to see who win the 2nd victory first.

Day3 at ANA Open has the bad weather forecast due to Typhoon.
"Where I was born, more than 300 days of the year is blessed with sunshine. Japan having much rainy season was tiring for me before, but I got used to it. With my wife beside me, I can get over anything."
