Beware The Unknown at Poppy Hills, Billy Andrade

Old college chum Billy Andrade was -3 after 4, starting on the back nine at Poppy Hills. Imagine my surprise when I realized that we had lost him. I used PGATour.Com’s shot tracker option to see how he fared on hole 14 and found this listing:

Play by Play for the Par 4, 415 yards 14th Hole
Shot 1 from the tee box
Shot 2 from the unknown

Wow, what to do? Fortunately, about five minutes later, the following was posted:

Play by Play for the Par 4, 415 yards 14th Hole
Shot 1 from the tee box
Shot 2 from the unknown
Shot 3 from the fringe
Shot 4 from the green (in the hole)

2009 hasn’t been too kind to Andrade, with a missed-cut showing at both Bob Hope and Buick. Hopefully those two tournaments represented the “unknown” and the “fringe,” and at Monterrey, he’ll finally find the “green.”
