PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. – Saturday was not a good day to be in the anchor pairing at the Honda Classic.
Wesley Bryan and Ryan Palmer shared the 36-hole lead, but after a tumultuous trip around the Champion Course both found themselves well behind leader Rickie Fowler.
Palmer made only one birdie en route to a 3-over 73, a score that dropped him into a tie for eighth at 6 under. Bryan was able to do only one better, posting a 2-over to move into a tie for third.
The rookie now trails Fowler by six shots and offered a candid assessment of where things so often go wrong at this particular course.
