Wagner thrilled to contend in 'home' tourney

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The good news for Johnson Wagner is this week’s Wells Fargo Championship is a home game and he was able to make it to his 9-year-old son’s baseball game on Thursday.

The bad news is Graham Wagner’s team dropped a close decision.

“They ended up losing by 1. I got there for the bottom half of the last inning and it was a barnburner,” Wagner said on Friday at Quail Hollow. “We had the bags full and couldn't quite get that last run in to tie it, but it was a good game.”

The family still has plenty to cheer for this weekend, with Wagner following his opening 67 with a 71 for a share of second place at 4 under par.
