2025 pga tournament at kapalua plantation: 1st round updaterolling thru a stress free (no bogeys) 7 under par
66 (tied for 4th) hitting 17 greens in regulation (clever bump & run into the embankment rolled up a foot away for a tap in 4 on the par 4 4th hole after the only missed green of the round)
collin morikawa is smiling & clearly having
FUN creating flighted trajectories thru the windy former pineapple fields!!...and yeah collin is confidently releasing the putterhead thru the stoke so dropping more birdies (quit barking, koa) is a highly probable outcome tomorrow thru the weekend for the young prince of lahaina!!

max homa rolled in 5 birdie en route to a
69 (tied for 16th)...max's sports center shot of the day wuz a 332 yard hooking 3 wood on the downhill/down trade winds epic par 5 18th hole to 30+ feet which resulted in a 2 putt birdie...the drawing 3 wood is a valuable
NEW addition to the homa arsenal...there are holes on tour that faders of the ball like max & collin traditionally struggle with such as the 9th,10th & 13th holes at augusta national, the 2nd & 16th holes at tpc sawgrass, the 13th hole at riviera, the 1st hole at bay hill, etc. that favor those that can hook a sweeping 3 wood off the tee box...this right to left shaped shot will help max compete at the 2025 masters!!
fun fact: max wuz introduced as from scottsdale arizona & not valencia california
despite a severely pulled iron into the juggle on the par 3 8th hole over the ravine which resulted in a double bogey 5
ben an battled back for a
70 (tied for 23rd)...byeong's shot of the day wuz a 417 yard drive on the down trade winds par 4 12th hole which resulted in a birdie
