Dicciani riding high again

Keith Dicciani is playing remarkable golf. He was flirting with the course record at Bethpage Black until he recorded bogeys at Nos. 17 and 18, carding a 3-under par 67 yesterday. The assistant from Metropolis Country Club is leading the New York State Open with a 136 total.
He’s five shots clear of the field.
“I feel pretty good,” Dicciani said. “I can’t control what anybody shoots tomorrow, but I need one more solid round like today.”
The course record happens to be held by Craig Thomas, who is the head professional at Metropolis.
“I’d like to keep it going with the PGA coming up,” said Dicciani, who qualified for the final major of the season last month. “I’m hoping to take some momentum into that and this is a good warm-up. It’s a hard course. You have to drive the ball well, and I assume Hazeltine will be the same way.”
Granite Springs resident Brian Lamberti is tied for second with Piping Rock’s Mike Gilmore at 141.
For all of the scores, go to the Met PGA web site.
Why does Keith Dicciani have a 2pm tee time???? Your weather out at “BPB”NY looks not so good??? over-cast and rain today and tomorrow is a wash-out! Stay dry!
Take the “SS” west to Francis Lewis Blvd. to the Clearview!!! Beat the Throggs-neck bridge traffic! Trust me this works! Have fun!
Heads to cook or I’d make the trip! TTYL!
