Sergio Garcia couldn’t decipher Friday’s winds during the second round of the Masters.
He was punished with four bogeys that left him 2 under for the tournament. He shot a 76, 10 shots more than his first-round score.
“You know, those things you can’t really control,” he said. “But even though with everything that happened today, we still are in a decent position to hopefully do something on the weekend.”
Garcia’s woes were illustrated best on No. 15. After hammering a drive, Garcia said he hit a great 3-iron with his second shot into the 530-yard par-5 hole.
But the wind, which didn’t blow during his playing partners’ shots, picked up and knocked Garcia’s approach into the water. He could be seen talking to himself walking down the fairway.
“When that happens it’s difficult to get things going,” he said. “It feels like even your good shots you’re not getting rewarded.”
