The average scores are shown below:

Division                 Rnd 1    Rnd 2  Delta
All Divs Int and higher   74.8     74.4    0.4
Pro Open                  65.8     65.3    0.4
Pro Masters               68.9     70.6   -1.7
Pro Masters Women         81.7     87.0   -5.3
Pro Grandmasters          76.4     73.0    3.4
Advanced                  72.1     71.3    0.9
Advanced Masters          75.3     73.8    1.5
Advanced Grandmasters     85.8     83.3    2.5
Intermediate              77.2     76.6    0.6
Intermediate Women       101.5    100.0    1.5

This of course ignores any fatigue factors. I omitted the REC division because they had some navigational issues. So across the board the second course played about a half stroke easier. Only the Pro Masters divisions played worse the second round.
