Completion of 3rd round Wuhan Open – PGA Tour China
After completing the 2nd and 3rd round today of the Wuhan Open, PGA Tour China Tour I have shot rounds of 74 (+2) and 69 (-3) to be T25th.
Well we were back at it early to finish the 2nd round at 6.30am which made for a long day of golf having to complete the 3rd round too. With 4 holes to go I have one over bogeying the 16th to add to my one over the previous day.
The conditions were a delight with no wind and rain hence the better scoring. Personally my ball striking today was the best in a long time. After being 2 red through 3 holes I was off to a great start. A poor club choice at my 4th hole the ball went swimming where I was extremely lucky to save my bogey after an awesome 50m pitch shot over water to a front flag.
At my 6th hole I had an eagle chance from just outside 3m which agonizingly went close. My 8th hole was a 190m par 3 where I stuck it to 3m, similar on the 9th both missing the putt.
At the actual 1st from the fairway I nipped a wedge to 2m making the birdie. Yay!!! Saves at 2 and 3 from just off the back edge kept the momentum going. At 4 I missed the fairway and had to layup on the par 5. From there the approach went to 3m were I missed and steep down hill putt at 5 from 2m missed too. 6 made a 2m birdie from 100m in, par 5 and bogeyed the next missing the green, not making the putt from 3m for par. 8 hit it to 3m and missed the green at 9 making up and down.
Yes. Could have been a very low scoring day had the putter turned up. Most approaches all inside the 3m mark. Very makable putts. Still none the less an under par day and a day I moved forward. Another one coming up for the 4th round tomorrow!
