When I showed up at the golf course this morning, it was raining and the wind was causing it to come down sideways. After a wet warmup, the rain finally stopped by the time we teed off.
Playing in gusty wind conditions, we got off to a tough start on the front nine. After only missing one fairway, were only able to hit three greens on the front and made the turn at two over par. Kevin hit it better on the back, only missing one green (due to a poor drive where we had to chip out) and he was able to bring it in at two under for an even par round (71). His even par total leaves him t-35th heading into the weekend.
Even though the conditions were tough, Kevin still does not like the way he hit the ball today. We headed to the range after the round and focused on the things he has been working on with his coach. In the windy conditions, he has the tendency to get his ball position back which leads to most of the problems. After the session on the range, we called it a day.
Due to the weather forecast for rain, the Tour moved the tee times up, playing in threesomes, and teeing off both tees. We will be going off at 8:22 on number 10. With the leaders only at 7 under and bad weather in the forecast for the weekend, we are still right in the ball game.
