PGTA Tour: Rai And Bhatia Are Tied 33rd At Memorial
Muirfield Village Golf Club: Indian-origin golfers, Aaron Rai, Akshay Bhatia and Sudarshan Yellamaraju, remained within striking distance after a demanding opening round at the Memorial Tournament, one of the PGA Tour’s premier Signature Events, while fellow Indian-American Sahith Theegala also stayed in contention despite a difficult start.
The challenging conditions at Muirfield Village Golf Club ensured that low scores were scarce, with only 22 players breaking par. Against that backdrop, Rai, Bhatia, and Yellamaraju all posted identical rounds of 1-over 73 to share 33rd place, while Theegala opened with a 2-over 74 and was tied for 44th.
At the top of the leaderboard, Tommy Fleetwood, Wyndham Clark, J.J. Spaun, and Ryan Gerard set the early pace with rounds of 5-under 67.
