Memorial Championship: Ben Griffin claims the lead in the first round in the role of Colin Maurica, Shane Lauri and Sisti Shevler, where they started solid beginnings | Golf news

Bin Griffin continued his wonderful half in its form as he claimed early progress in the memorial championship.

The 29 -year -old American, who won the first individual title in the PGA tour of Charles Schwab Challenge last week, won seven 65 years in the first round of Muirfield Village Golf Club to be led by two in a signing event worth $ 20 million.

Griffin opened with a bird in the first hole and added another in fourth place, where it was installed from 36 feet.

The most prominent thing in his tour was on the seventh of the fifth century that he was speeding after reaching his second shot to 11 feet, and he continued with a 27 feet to the birds on the eighth.

It was found water in each of the eleventh and twelfth, but it escaped from the ghost and wore it with the end of the storm that the birds witnessed from four of the last five holes, including the last three – out of more than 50 feet in the eighteenth hills.

“It was a great day,” Griffin said. “A kind of construction on what I was doing last week, making a lot of birds, and staying aggressive. This is one of the most difficult golf courses that we play on a tour and you have to be in your game to make birds and give a lot of appearance.”

Culin Maurica, twice in second place in this tournament, chasing the stalking package in five below, with Max Homa (68) in returning back after collecting the last two holes.

Shin Laurie tied from Ireland, which was assembled with Griffin, in the fourth place in three under the 69th round, which also included an eagle in the seventh where it was only four feet with his second shot.

However, it produced a mixed bag on the back of nine with two birds and two ghosts because it failed to achieve any additional road at the top of the leaders plate, where he ended next to the American Rider Cup captain Kegan Bradley and Nick Taylor from Canada.

Defense champion Scotti Shevler opened with two without 70, which was met by Andrew Novak, who won in Zurich Classic in New Orleans next to Griffin in April.

Robert Macinterre from Scotland got 71, better than Tommy Fleetwood, who retreated on the field when he followed a double ghost in the fifteenth place with a sixteenth ghost.

He struggled with all his English colleagues with Matt Fitzpatrick in 76, where Justin did 78 and Aaron Ray in 79, although they were all better than Justin Thomas, which included 80 trio of seven in the ninth.

The event is characterized by a reduction on Friday from 72 players to the top 50 and relationships, as well as anyone within 10 shots of lead.
