The bucket hat must have been lucky for Peter Malnati on Day 1 of the AT&T Byron Nelson on Thursday.
In his 593rd tour start, the 34-year-old recorded two eagles in a single round for the first time in his PGA Tour career en route to an opening round 8-under 64 at TPC Craig Ranching, sitting T-2 to start the tournament.
The highlight of those eagles was a hole-out from 189 yards at the par-4 13th.
“I imagine 13 is one of the top three hardest holes on the course, would be my guess,” Malnati said after the round.
