Marcus Byrd, a 25-year old professional golfer, is scraping together a living on the APGA, while still dreaming of a life on the PGA Tour.
Doctors prescribed antibiotics and instructed Byrd to rest and consume plenty of fluids. The discomfort became so acute by Tuesday night that swallowing even small amounts of water was excruciating. Byrd willed himself to do so to have a chance at regaining stamina for Thursday’s opening round.
He managed to make his afternoon tee time, overcoming another obstacle in pursuit of a PGA Tour card while operating on a limited budget and relying on the largesse of friends and family.at the Wells Fargo Championship but followed a 6-over 77 in the first round with a 71, finishing ahead of major championship winners Jordan Spieth and Zach Johnson, among others.
