JUNO BEACH, Fla. – And on the fifth day, it poured.
Sadly, not much golf was played Thursday at Seminole Golf Club thanks to scattered thunderstorms that caused three different suspensions as preparation continued for the 48th Walker Cup.
But that didn’t mean the day was a total wash. Here are a few observations and notes from Thursday’s abbreviated action as we are now just two more sleeps from the start of the matches:
The first horn for weather blew just as U.S. players Stewart Hagestad and Tyler Strafaci had hit irons off the 10th tee and four other Americans – Davis Thompson, Pierceson Coody, Ricky Castillo and William Mouw – were heading down the first fairway.
