University of New Mexico golfer Albert Boneta missed most of last season with a mysterious injury to his right wrist.
But any lingering rust from his absence from the course was hard to see as he fired a 7-under 65 in Friday’s second round of the William H. Tucker tournament at the UNM Championship Golf Course.
Coupled with his even par 72 in the day’s opening round, Boneta is tied with TCU’s Aymeric Laussot, both sitting one stroke behind individual leader Caden Fioroni of UNLV, who shot a 67-69 for an 8-under 136.
“I couldn’t play for eight months,” Boneta said.
