KINGSTON SPRINGS, Tenn. – After 36 holes and a pair of 67s – many of them played in a steady range – Alabama junior Robby Shelton headed to the driving range with his teammates. He’d already used his lunch break between rounds to work on his wedge game. What could he possibly be working on now? “Well, I could’ve driven it better,” he said.
There’s always something. Indeed, Shelton fanned his tee shot at his final hole of the day, the 465-yard, par-4 ninth at the Golf Club of Tennessee, and had to make the long trip back to the tee to reload.
