Teeing Off

Golf in the Lower Hudson Valley, from high schools to the pros

Well, that was quick

June
22

You had to get the sense that Ricky Barnes and Lucas Glover would come back to the pack. But did you think it would be this quick.

The co-leaders entering the day at 7-under — five strokes ahead — are both scuffling early here in today’s final round at Bethpage Black. Barnes bogeyed his second hole and yanked his approach on No. 5 and sent his chip into the bunker. His bogey put him at 6-under, which is still the lead.

Glover, meanwhile, needed a great up-and-down out of the bunker on No. 5 to save par. He’s 5-under. Hunter Mahan is 3-under through eight holes.

Mike Weir just holed-out from the sandtrap on No. 7 to drop to 2-under. He’s tied for fourth with Ross Fisher.

Phil Mickelson just bogeyed No. 6 and is 1-under. Tiger can’t get a putt to fall and is still even.
