As all of you know, I haven't blogged in a while. After missing the cut in California two weeks ago, I caught the red eye back to the east coast on Friday night and was not able to blog after the first round. Last week in Georgia, I did not have the internet and once again could not / did not blog. So here you go.
We teed off this morning at 8:10am on the Magnolia course with Garrett Willis. Garrett had my long time, good friend Brennan Webb caddying for him so I had a great day. This tournament is a pro-am being played on two courses for the first two days with each professional paired with one amateur. Garrett's partner was an ex-NFL football player that played for the Denver Broncos for nine years. I told him that if he had legs like mine, he could have played 10 years!!
With a cold front moving through yesterday, it was cold and windy starting the day. Our warm up started in the dark and under the flood lights. We got off to a great start as Kevin hit it solid and putted great. With only 13 putts through 10 holes, we had it 5 under for the day in some tough conditions. Our momentum hit a wall as our drive on the par 5 - 4th hole (our 13th) ran through a fairway bunker and finished up under the lip. We were not able to get it out of the trap and then the next shot could only be advanced with a sand wedge. The final result was a double bogey. A few loose shots but some great up and downs coming in and we were able to keep it at 3 under. Kevin was a little disappointed when we finished but the Magnolia course played almost two shots higher then the Palm course today and there were only 7 scores better then us on the Magnolia.
Tomorrow we tee off at 12:10 on the Palm.
