The Memorial Tournament by Nationwide Insurance will be held this week at Muirfield Village Golf Club (Dublin, Ohio), home to Jack Nicklaus, and making an appearance at this special PGA Tour date will be Gonzalo Fernández Castaño, who will embark upon a peculiar sort of mini marathon...
The Spanish golfer will play nonstop for five weeks straight: Memorial, St. Jude Classic, US Open and Travelers in the US, finishing off the whirlwind tour with the International in Cologne, Germany. This stretch of the season could turn out to be of vitalimportance for the Madrid native, who now has to accumulate points in order to finish end the year more comfortably, focusing on the first and foremost objective which, during his debut in the first season as a member of the American tour in plain right, should always be to maintain the card.
To begin with, the Memorial isn't just any tournament. The flaming hot Number 1 in the world will be there, Adam Scott, accompanied by six of the top-10 players in the world: Watson, Kuchar (defending champion), Rose, Mcllroy, Day and Spieth. More than half of the top-50 of the world will be there. Big Words.
Fernández Castaño will play on Thursday startingat 18:32 (Spanish time) together with American golfer, Morgan Hoffman and Australian golfer, Greg Chalmers.
