Kevin hit the ball the best he has all week but we didn't get anything out of the round. Playing in perfect conditions, Kevin started the day with two early birdies on number two and four. A bogey on the seventh after getting a poor lie in the rough off the tee, led to the only bogey on the front nine and we made the turn at one under par.
The back nine started poorly after the tee shot on number ten caught some trees on the corner of the dogleg and dropped straight down into the long rough. With very little options, none of them very good, we tried to get the ball around the front, right side of the green. Unfortunately, it did not come out as planned and the adventure began. The ball caught a tree and then after a few sloppy pitches, we tapped in for double. Running a little hot, Kevin stepped up on the drivable number 11, hit it 335 yards and had a 30 footer for eagle. After a two putt birdie there, we had another two putt birdie on the par five 14th and had it back under par for the day. That was short lived when on the very next hole, his drive landed in the middle of the fairway, directly on top of a sprinkler head and shot about 50 yards through the fairway into the high rough, under some trees. From there, he was able to get the ball into the back green side bunker but was not able to get it up and down to save par. We finished the day off with a great up and down for birdie on the par five 18th and shot one under par (70).
The four under total puts us in 32nd heading into the last day. With thunderstorms in the forecast, the Tour has split the tee times off the first and tenth holes. We will be teeing off number ten at 8:11 with Richard Johnson and Si Woo Kim.
