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.
