Anthony Kim and Ryuji Imada teed off first this morning at 8:30 and are on pace to finish their round in just over three hours (they finished in 3 hours, 15 minutes). Their round of speed golf i a good indicator that neither player believes they can win or even contend, so they are simply trying to get done as quick as possible. Perhaps they want to enjoy a day at Sea World or the San Diego Zoo and so by finishing quickly they will have more time to enjoy the activities. The quick pace did not hurt either golfer, both finished at 1 under for the day.
It's a good bet that Jesper Parnevik is also trying to get the round over as quickly as possible. The Swede bogeyed five of his first seven holes and since he was already 10 off the lead, it doesn't look like this will be the year that Parnevik wins his first major.
Only 3 1/3 hours until Tiger gets on the course.
