Grayson Murray tames wind to lead in Texas, Garcia woes continue
Grayson Murray tames wind to lead in Texas, Garcia woes continue
Grayson Murray has blown hot and cold recently and on Thursday he was hot at the Texas Open, shooting a five-under 67 for a one-stroke lead after the first round in windy San Antonio. On a day when Sergio Garcia battled to a 74, Murray tamed the Greg Norman-designed TPC San Antonio to head a group of fellow Americans including Ryan Moore and Billy Horschel on 68. “This is the first time I’ve seen…

SAN ANTONIO | Grayson Murray handles the wind and leads Texas Open
SAN ANTONIO | April 19, 2018 (AP)(STL.News)Grayson Murray fixed a flaw in his swing and hit the ball well enough that blustery conditions weren’t an issue for him Thursday in the Valero Texas Open.
Coming off a missed cut at Hilton Head last week, Murray made seven birdies for a 5-under 67 and a one-shot lead. His only mistake was a double bogey from a greenside bunker on the par-3 seventh hole.
“Just the fact I did give myself enough opportunities today for birdie, it took a lot of pressure off,” Murray said.
Of the five players at 68, only Chesson Hadley played in the morning side of the draw, and he called it among his best rounds of the year because of gusts. The wind died in the afternoon and scoring improved slightly on the AT&T Oaks Course at the TPC San Antonio. Keegan Bradley, Ryan Moore, Billy Horschel and Matt Atkins each posted 68. Horschel and Moore played bogey-free.
“Struck the ball really well, something that we’ve been working hard on,” Horschel said. “Could have been better, yeah. I didn’t really make anything out there today. But I’m happy with it.”
Sergio Garcia, who consulted Greg Norman on the design of the course, played the Texas Open for the first time since 2010 and shot a 74. Adam Scott failed to make a birdie in his round of 75. Scott is at No. 59 in the world and needs to stay in the top 60 by May 21 to be exempt for the U.S. Open.
Harris English was in the group at 69, while two-time Texas Open champion Zach Johnson, Nick Watney and Brandt Snedeker were among those at 70. Johnson saved his round by going 5 under over his final five holes, starting with a 12-foot eagle putt on the par-5 14th hole. He birdied the last three.
Murray was coming off a pair of top 15s at Bay Hill and the Houston Open when his game got away from his last week in the RBC Heritage, and he shots 74-70 to miss the cut. He got that sorted out in the five days between teeing it up in San Antonio.
He said he was coming down too steep, which meant he would flip his hands and hit a sharp draw or pull out of it and hit it short and right.
“I was hitting each club 10 yards shorter than I normally do, and you can’t play like that because your caddie is trying to give you a number and a club, and you keep hitting these bad shots or keep coming up short,” Murray said. “I got back to the basics with the setup and the takeaway, got my club in a better position at the top, which kind of frees my downswing. Then I can start going at it.”
Even so, Murray thought he wasted his good start — three birdies in his six holes — when his bunker shot at No. 7 came out with no spin and rolled off the green into a deep swale. He hit his third short to about 7 feet, but missed the putt and took double bogey.
“I would have loved to limit that to a bogey because bogeys don’t really kill you — doubles are the ones that now you’ve got to have an eagle or two birdies to come back with, and out here it’s kind of tough to make birdies,” Murray said. “But I kept my head. My caddie keeps me very positive out there, that’s why I think we could finish 4 under the last nine holes.”
Only 34 players in the 156-man field managed to break par.
Horschel missed four birdie chances inside 18 feet on the back nine. What pleased him the most was the way he struck the ball, particularly after his tie for fifth last week at the RBC Heritage. Horschel was one shot behind going into the last round and closed with a 72.
But he’s all about momentum, and he can only hope this is the start of one of his runs. Horschel won the FedEx Cup in 2014 when he finished second and won the final two playoff events.
“I’m a big momentum player. I’ve got to get the train moving forward,” he said. “I’ve always been a guy who gets on a little roll, get that train moving and jump in that winner’s circle.”

Palmer wins the Texas Open three year straight
On this day, The King…Arnold Palmer won the Texas Open for the third year in a row. Palmer first won the event in 1960 where he won by two strokes over Doug Ford & Frank Stranahan. In 1961, he successfully defended his title by shooting two strokes better than the year before defeating runner up Al Balding. In 1962, Palmer was without a doubt the favorite and didn’t exactly have an easy road for the “three-peat” in Texas.

In an incredible Palmer-like fashion, he birdied the last three of four holes in play. He finished the final day with a four under-par 67 with four players coming up just a stroke too short. He posted a 72-hole score of 273 at the Oak Hills Country Club and won by a stroke over Joe Campbell, Gene Littler, Mason Rudolph,and Doug Sanders.

Leonard Beats Parnevik in Texas Open Playoff
Top brass once decided a golf tournament on the wind-swept dunes of the British Isles. Justin Leonard and Jesper Parnevik were at the genuine article again, however this time the gorse of Scotland was replaced as to the sun-baked cedar trees upon the Nub Country.<\p>
It was, however, the same result as Leonard won the Texas Open for the third time Sunday, beating Parnevik with a 10-foot birdie putt on the whole step substratosphere of a playoff.<\p>
The finish brought back memories of the 1997 British Open when Parnevik began the final round at Troon five shots rare of Leonard. Nonetheless Parnevik shot a 71, and Leonard had a 65 in order to win.<\p>
Parnevik entered the round midst a three-stroke lead over fellow Swede Mathias Gronberg and a four-shot featheredge over Leonard.<\p>
Leonard hasn't won a major championship ex post facto, and he has made changes to get his game back to where it was.<\p>
€There's no better way to validate (the changes) than unto come out and win a golf games like this,€ Leonard said.<\p>
Leonard, also the 2000 and '01 winner at LaCantera Golf Club Resort Course, closed regardless of a 5-under 65 upon match Parnevik at 19-under 261. Parnevik, who opened with a 61 and led after each one of the primary three rounds, finished in company with a 69.<\p>
Earlier this year, Leonard switched instructors from Butch Harmon to his old coach Randy Smith. He also changed caddies and is trying so as to move to a home closer to Royal Oaks Topsoil Club, his old club in Dallas.<\p>
Leonard is the first three-time Texas Open winner since Arnold Palmer good terms 1960-62.<\p>
€That's pretty special,€ Leonard said. €It's great company so be passage. I played terrifically solid.€<\p>
Leonard had plenty with regard to opportunities in order to win then somewhen perfection off Parnevik for his 11th PGA Tour title and first since 2005.<\p>
On the final hole in relation to regulation, the Texan's 14-foot birdie putt to win just slid next to the hole. On the at the start put aside hole, Parnevik took an unplayable exposure after penetrating into the trees sinistrorse on the fairway. But man hit a 153-yard approach unto 3 feet to set up a par. Leonard chipped from the greenside rough in order to set up his book value.<\p>
€That's kind of the way Jesper plays,€ Leonard said. €He's not growing to hit every fairway. He's not going to hit every green. But he's in truth creative. He hit some gutsy shots.€<\p>
Leonard, 1-4 in playoffs after the walkover, unconsidered a 5-foot birdie putt pertinent to the second hole. Parnevik had a 28-footer for birdie toward cover the playoff going on the third filigree rime, just the same gone it a foot short.<\p>
The 42-year-old Swede was trying up to conquest for the first carboniferous in 6 1\2 years.<\p>
€It's tough to appreciate into position to win, but I'm happy I got to lambency it even so,€ Parnevik said. €it had been a amuse.€<\p>
Daniel Chopra, that Swede, rocket launching a 66 to tie for third with Gronberg (69) at 16 under. Grass veld Slocum closed with a 62 to finish fifth at 14 under.<\p>
Parnevik struggled offbeat the tee throughout the back nonuplet. At the 15th, he pulled his wynd well left. He with a rush looked away, then walked through the gallery ropes to find it in the trees with a cut down technique to the whereabout about 165 yards away.<\p>
He punched they to 16 feet except the cup and made birdie.<\p>
Albeit on the next tee, proper to a statuesque wait while Chopra got a rescript on a indisciplined drive in the group ahead, inner man pushed one separated from the turf. Then, plus a inessential ball, he pulled without difference that nit a pit in the head.<\p>
He found his first fancy-dress ball in the brush and punched she into the rough over against the way to a dracula and a one-stroke wantage.<\p>
But he hit a labored 7-iron to 3 feet on the 190-yard 17th and custom birdie to tie it going into the boundary hole.<\p>
€give the credit to Justin,€ Parnevik linguistic. €He didn't decipher too much wrong even now.€<\p>
Just caritas 1997 at Troon.<\p>
