Pendrith, Svensson off to strong start at the Players. MORE:
Most days, Taylor Pendrith can count on his driver on the golf course.
“That's maybe the first time I've ever done that,” said Pendrith. “So, that's pretty cool, but everything was good. Lots of confidence with the driver and hit a couple three-irons and three-woods that were also down the middle of the fairway. It's much easier to play from the fairway and I have not been doing that as of late.”
“I love this golf course,” said Pendrith. “I’ve been watching it on TV for years. It's my second time around here so I think I've learned a little bit of certain spots to miss it or where you don't want to hit it.” Pendrith wasn’t the only Canadian making a run up the leaderboard on Thursday. Adam Svensson posted a 68 and rather than using a power game, the Surrey, B.C., native did it mostly with the touch shots around the greens.
He was playing a rather mundane round of golf for the first 14 holes, carding two birdies against a dozen pars. But on 15 he started a stretch of three consecutive birdies before finishing out his day with a disappointing bogey on the 18th, that being the only hole of the round where he wasn’t able to get up and down from off the green.
One other Canadian managed to get into red figures. Adam Hadwin had an eventful day with five birdies and four bogeys to sit at one under.
