It is often said that you cannot win a big championship during your opening tour, but you can definitely lose it. We have seen this principle playing itself several times over the years, but on Thursday it was challenged in an unexpected way.
Lin Grant started open to women in the United States with a back wave and no time was missed to enter red characters. Grant Berdi, birds, birds through the first three holes. No big deal.
Conditions in Erin Hills may change on Friday, so collecting as much as possible from a strong start as much as possible to this point is crucial for players with weekends so far. Grant was initially solid as possible before “cooling” with equal number 4.
We’ll see whether it is able to maintain this model as the championship continues to be disclosed.
