Bo Van Pelt back on track at Memorial after losing passion for golf

DUBLIN, Ohio — It was an exhilarating day for Bo Van Pelt, as he shot an 8-under 64 at the Memorial Tournament to take a share of the lead through Round 1.

The end of Jason Dufner's day was not quite as exhilarating as he double bogeyed the 18th hole and refused to talk to the media after his round.

Van Pelt, 40, spent a lot of his press conference after his 10-birdie performance talking about how he lost interest in the game for a while after a solid 2012 season when he earned $3.04 million, his fourth consecutive year of earning more than a million dollars.
