Kuchar pleased with start at Masters
April 11, 2013
Matt Kuchar said he had to turn his Masters broadcast off after hearing too many announcers say too many times that those going off Thursday afternoon would have a rougher time than those going off in the morning.
Kuchar, teeing off in the last group at 1:52 p.m., proved the analysts wrong by shooting a 4-under 68. He’s two shots behind the leaders.
“We ended up getting some pretty nice conditions,” he said.
Kuchar, a former standout at Georgia Tech, posted birdies on Nos. 2, 7, 8, 9, 13 and 14 with bogeys on No. 4 and 16.
“I played nice golf,” he said. “I hit a lot of fairways and had a lot of birdie chances.”
Kuchar will tee off on Friday at 10:45 a.m.
