A first round of play was delayed after a tropical storm wiped out all play on Thursday.
BEAU HOSSLER FIRED a 10-under par 60 to grab a four-stroke lead early in Friday’s first round of the rain-hit PGA Wyndham Championship.
“The ball-striking was elite, especially 7- to 5-iron. I hit a couple of those to tap in,” Hossler said. Another 13 rounds of 59 have been shot on the PGA Tour entering this week, the most recent being by American Hayden Springer at last month’s John Deere Classic.Hossler, seeking his first PGA victory, opened with four birdies in a row and added an eagle at the par-5 fifth.
“The last three holes are no picnic here, 18 is probably the hardest hole on the course, so I figured my best opportunity was going to be 17,” Hossler said. “I felt like I hit a nice wedge shot. It just spun back a little more than I expected.”
