PGA Tour: Matsuyama, Im Enjoy Fast Starts, Bhatia, Theegala Well Behind At BMW Championship
Castle Pines Golf Club: Japanese star Hideki Matsuyama carried on from where he left the St. Jude Championships, which he won last week, and stayed hot with his new putter for solo second place with 5-under 67 at the BMW Championship. Korea’s Sungjae Im (68) and Si Woo Kim (69) enjoyed fast starts to keep the good times rolling for Asian golfers in the FedEx Cup Playoffs.
However, Indian-Americans Akshay Bhatia (72), T-22) and Sahith Theegala (73; T-34) and Indo-British Aaron Rai (74; T-38) were some way behind in the 50-man field. Byeong Hun An, also from Korea, opened with a 72. American Keegan Bradley, who was the last man in 50th place to qualify for the BMW Championship, fired with a bogey-free 66 to take the lead after the first round.
Four days after securing a two-stroke victory at the FedEx St. Jude Championship for his second win of the season and 10th PGA TOUR title, the 32-year-old Matsuyama was in the element once again at Castle Pines Golf Club in Colorado with six birdies, which included a monster 74-foot birdie conversion on the fourth hole.
