The PGA TOUR will be in Puerto Rico this week as the Grand Reserve Golf Club hosts the Puerto Rico Open in a two-event weekend for the TOUR. Nico Echavarria will look to successfully defend his maiden TOUR title and be the first player to go back-to-back in Puerto Rico. He played well to claim T21 at the Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches last week and finished T24 at Mexico Open at Vidanta two weeks ago. K.H Lee will be in Puerto Rico this week. He played well for a T4 finish last week at the Cognizant Classic and will look to claim this third PGA TOUR title with a win. Rasmus Højgaard will also be in the field. His missed cut at PGA National ended a consecutive cuts-made streak of 12 worldwide, the previous seven of which were top-11 finishes. The winner of the Puerto Rico Open will be looking to nab the final spot into THE PLAYERS Championship next week. Others to look out for are Joel Dahmen, Kevin Kisner and Robert MacIntyre.

Lik his iron play in this opening round Bryce Garnett par five Fifth and look at that what a great ho out Eagle his front nine defending champ Nico aevia once again playing wild comfortable on the greens comfortable in the wind it’s a great course fit for him 2013 CJ cupet Byron Nelson and

Flagging it here kind of an advantage going third off that t box get to see how the wind’s affecting the other two guys shots now it his first season here on the PGA tour for the outright lead putting up the hill and then it goes down grain at the

End 6 under out through 10 Springer feeling it today putting together a really nice round Satoshi kadra back one at the ninth finishing up his Round Here here on the front nine see how aggressive he wants to get to this ride hole location and I’d say pretty aggressive

George just a few feet left for kadra if you get the opportunity to put a ball on a peg you can take a perfect lie so I I I don’t adopt it but maybe he’s trying to play a little low left-handed draw to this pin might be on his something shot from

Icei check out this t- shot with our trackman Tracer technology T up on the left side of the box with that front left pin trying to draw it into that wind scoots on up there tight end up here so this just a moment ago as third and just 87 yards has a pretty

Good L comes out very low back into the breeze here how good is that second shot for Hayden Springer at the part 41 12 carried that bunker down the right side but there’s a penalty area about 10 yards to his right so he got very fortunate with that t-shot it looks to

Be taking advantage of a great break George good one over on the ninth last hole for Troy marritt in come from that left rough much longer shot guys certainly aren’t afraid to take on that right hole location at nine today though Aon wi at 17 117 yards straight back down wind good line

Here he sure turned it on here these last few holes good to see get a little momentum going into his next start and in tomorrow Ben Griffin on 16 back at the green and here’s a guy who’s had a couple chances to win in his rookie year looking to get back in the

Hunt trips that one in and move to one under really had a good chance there at the Sanderson Farms just couldn’t get it up and down on 18 and got into that big playoff that was ultimately won by Luke list birdie put on the way for

Burger that went in with some Pace too I like that putting up the hill aggressive hit the back of the cup hoard sitting pretty at 17 love the mechanics of both Rasmus and nikolai’s golf swings love that shot too that’s pretty ninth hole on that right hand side and

Piery taking dead end find in the Fairway with his first t- shot of the round this coming on the 10 playing downwind out of his left back hole location sitting up on top of the little Ridge that’s beautifully done great distance control yet again seeing a guy here at

The Puerto Rico open who is trying to win for another town on the PGA tour Eric Barnes he put so much speed on that too that was amazing how high and soft he was able to get it up saying that he rededicated himself to working out was trying to avoid some of

The injuries that he had had over the past few years has made Fitness a big part of his 2024 McIntyre there we go seing a lot of guys with wedges in for their third here to the par five just a really difficult Fairway to hit

He’s got it at a good angle to this left pin though can Eric Barnes tack on one more birdie today after a quality second shot really quality second shot putting back up the hill Bird’s stealing one on the 14 saw to even well he’s going to be forced to

Play this one through the air because of that pass palum grass and some mouning in front of him it’s got this one on a really nice trajectory can see it just didn’t have any spin coming out of that rough but that was really well judged well he’s

Going to have to contend with the coming out kind of dead too coming off a really deep lie there left of the green see if it runs out once it gets on the putting surface oh it is nicely now that was wonderful touch there by Joel couple under on this back side got

That t-ball down the right hand side had to be a nervous few seconds and he was rewarded with a great angle and what a shot but this run from Sloan left in the bag I think he is a little bit underachieved because I like his game

Don’t take anything away he is a good player and then he does that 65 you thought no way anyone gets past eight so it seems like that’s going to hold up with how tough conditions have been in the afternoon but we will play the waiting game Johnson and we’ll

See as we’re diving into this leader board Matty Schmidt 4 under through eight and Roger Sloan turn into that front side thanks for watching the PJ Tour on YouTube to watch another video click here
