FORT WORTH, Texas – It was a perfectly awful start for Harold Varner III – a tee shot that sailed wildly right of the 10th fairway; a penalty drop; an approach that ended up in a bunker.
It seemed like before Varner’s day had even started everything had ended, with a triple-bogey 7 at his first hole to drop him out of the lead at the Charles Schwab Challenge. The only good news for Varner was that he had plenty of time to make up for his miscues.
“After making the triple I was just fighting for my life,” said the Round 1 leader.
