memorial, day 1
Ernie Els (now with hat) and local boy Ben Curtis (in Bengals outfit) are atop the leaderboard at -4 at the Memorial. Tiger is even, after a round with 4 birdies and 4 bogeys. Jack is 2-over.
Under the radar: It’s nice to see two relatively unknown golfers who shot -3 near the top of the leaderboard. The first is John Rollins. The guy had Tiger by the tail at the World Match Play Championship, only to falter on the final hole. At the practice round, no one around me recognized who he was, so no one asked for his autograph. I hope he does well.
The other player is up-and-coming Zach Johnson, who’s already won the Bellsouth Classic this year. Zach is playing with Jack, so I hope Zach and Jack both play well.
