PGA Tour: QBE Shootout leaderboard here
Corey Connors with his precision driving and irons and a motivated short game guru Graeme McDowell were simply spectacular in today's opening Scramble where they shot -15, 57 T2 just a shot behind, and tied with the 3 time winner and defending champs Matt Kuchar and Harris English. They had 13 birdies and an eagle.
" I just think we ham and egged it well" said the Irish veteran, now ranked 308th in the world after taking 2 months off recovering from surgery to a muscle in his forearm, "my biggest problem was keeping in my rhythm following Corey up the fairways, he drove it so well and I made a few nice wedges,, then his putter got hot towards the end which was nice"
The leaders 28 out and 28 in are at -16 56 Jason Day and Marc Leishman.
Saturday is a modified scramble where both players drive, pick the best of the two, then play that ball in alternate shots until they hole out.
