PHOENIX – Paula Creamer was chasing from behind before she reached the first tee Thursday at the JTBC Founders Cup.
She was nine shots back before hitting her opening shot of the tournament.
That’s how it is at the fast track known as Wildfire Golf Club, where a string of pars can leave you in somebody else’s dust.
With a 7-under-par 65 in Friday’s second round, Creamer was kicking up plenty of her own dust here in the desert. She was just one shot off the lead when the morning wave finished up.
