2025 rocket mortgage classic at detroit golf club: 1st round update
michael kim (67, tied for 26th): playing mistake free golf with 5 birdies & zero bogeys, michael is tryna qualify for the 2025 british open (currently ranked #55 in the world, top 50 receive invitations to royal portrush in northern ireland next month) with a big week here in detroit
Happy with the start considering I started my warm up 35 minutes before my tee time instead of my usual hour. I misremembered my tee time and my caddie sent a text to make me realize 😅🤦🏻♂️

ben an (68, tied for 44th): excellent ball striking with 16 outta 18 greens hit in regulation & holing out a 77 yard flip wedge for an eagle 2 on the par 4 13th hole, if the longstick broom putter can heat up ben will move up the leaderboard
collin morikawa (69, tied for 66th): good news: almost holed out for a double eagle on the par 5 17th hole hitting a 276 yard 3 wood to 3 inches for a tap in eagle 3!!...bad news: 3 three jacks on the back nine & made only 42 feet of putts during today's 18 holes (u can do the math)...collin literally missed/shoved every putt to the right of the hole (not releasing/squaring up the putterhead) with miscalculated speed, would love to see kk get more actively involved in reading greens as limbhaust is an elite putter...and yeah **** adam schupak
