When USGA CEO Mike Whan asked what to anticipate during this week's inaugural U.S. Adaptive Open, he only got one word: joy.
The first edition of the competition, a national championship for golfers with physical, visual, and cognitive impairments, was completed on Wednesday at the No. 6 course at Pinehurst Resort and Country Club in North Carolina.
Regarding what my team is most proud of, this [event] is at the top of the list. Something new is about to begin."
Piercy had four birdies opening four holes of the back nine of his afternoon round. He increased his advantage with additional birdies on Nos. 2, 6, and 7 on the final stretch and converted a 10-footer for par on the par-3 eighth.
After missing four of his previous six cuts, Piercy said, "It's been a while since I've played as I should." "I know it's in there. I just don't know how to get it out," he said.
Even though there is a lot to do this weekend, performing well the first two days gives me confidence.
The 43-year-old Piercy needs an excellent finish over the final three weeks of the PGA Tour season since he is currently 138th in the FedEx Cup rankings, where only the top 125 players advance to the playoffs and retain full PGA Tour status.
I know what I need to do because he claimed I'd been out here for a while. I only wish I had completed it earlier in the season.
Grillo aced the par-5 sixth hole.
He praised his performance, saying, "Standard day." "The one on 6, it's a big plus to steal two, and it's a hard hole to get in two."
Tarren missed the 3M Open tournament record by one shot.
Tarren said I had so many opportunities today since I hit every green. "I missed four or five within ten feet so that it could have been outrageous," the speaker said.
The Englishman missed a 46-foot birdie putt on the par-5 18th and made birdies on 15 and 17, unaware that he was close to breaking the scoring record.
The 2021 winner, Cameron Champ, finished with four birdies in his final five holes to shoot 68 and make the cut at 1-over.
