In round 1, I was 2-under standing on the 8th tee. I hit a 9-iron to 4 feet, but missed the putt. I didn't make another birdie the rest of the day and struggled to even give myself birdie chances. I finished with a frustrating 73.
During round 2, I was 3-under, and we had a long wait on #8. While we waited the weather changed. A cold north wind started blowing into our face as the group in front of us finished putting. That made the 233 yard par 3 play even longer. I came up well short with my tee shot and my chip rolled up to 12 feet. My putt did a complete 360 around the hole and fell in. Saving that par kept the momentum going - especially since I had birdied the 7th hole. The rest of round 2 was smooth sailing, with a lot of good birdie chances. I hit my tee shot on the par 3 thirteenth to 8 inches and tapped in.
Thursday in the 3rd round and I hope the worst of the weather is behind us. The forecast for the next 2 days is pretty good. Yesterday we had a bunch of wind and today we narrowly escaped getting rained on.
The leaderboard is updated after 9 holes, so expect to see my scores around 2pm EST.
