3rd Round Cadillac Open – PGA Tour China
After the 3rd round of the Cadillac Championships, PGA Tour China Tour I have shot a score of 67 (-5) to be 11 under total and coming T17th.
It was great scoring conditions today as a four under would have held my position in the field. Everyone just taking it deep again.
Birdie at the 2nd and par at the 3rd I was off to a solid start. Although my only drop shot for the day was at the 6th missing a 2 footer for par. I backed that bogey with 2 birdies at 7 and 8 holing 2, 15 foot putts.
After turning in 2 under I was ready to build on that going into the back nine. 2 birdies showed up early on the back nine which was nice to see at 11 and 12. Had a chance now to really make some inroads up the leaderboard.
Solid play through the next 3 holes until 16 where my approach went to 12 foot for a birdie chance. I really wanted this putt to drop. A great stroke was made and before I knew it the ball had horse-shoed back at me. Gutted.
17 the short par 4 I hit driver to 12 feet where I hit a poor putt missing low. Tap-in birdie. On 18 I hit the fairway on this short par 5 having 9iron it where I flared the ball right into a bunker not being able to make my up and down to finish the round. The finish was a bit of a let down but I am only 5 back from matching my best 4 round total. Bring on tomorrow!
