Kansas Jayhawk fans who follow golfer Gary Woodland are paying extra attention following his February win at the Phoenix Open. We were excited to see Woodland handle the difficult U.S. Open set up at Shinnecock Hills. Woodland was still dreaming a pro golf career the last time the Southhampton, New York course hosted the open.
Woodland has been inconsistent since his Super Bowl weekend victory. He started ten PGA tour events the past four months and missed the weekend six times. His game and confidence got a boost at the June 3, Memorial Tournament.
