PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — One would have to say that Martin Flores is a man of his word. “I told my coach (Randy Smith) last night that I was going to shoot 67,” said Flores.
He did, too, with six birdies offset by a lone bogey at the par-4 18th hole accounting for his tidy work in Round 3 of The Players Championship. Of course, had he not missed the green right at 18, he might have shot 66 and his prediction would not have been so spot-on.
Flores smiled.
“I would have been OK with that,” he said.
