Farmers Insurance Open (Torrey Pines) - First Round

We play two courses this week at Torry Pines. The South Course is the course that the US Open was held and is the "more difficult" of the two courses. The lower scores are typically shot on the North Course.

Today we played the South Course and was paired with Andres Gonzales and James Oh. We still fought the driver today but it is was better. Kevin grinded it out the entire day but it was all spoiled by a poor 18th hole. On the par 5 18th, the drive went left and all we could do was advance it about 140 yds down the fairway. After a nice lay up down the fairway, we hit a 6 iron well right of the green. A nice pitch to 5 feet but 3 putts later - adds up to a double bogey 7 to finish the day. We shot 3 over par 75.

After signing the scorecard, we headed to the range. Our session went well. We will need a good one tomorrow. We tee off the tenth tee on the North Course at 9:20.
