Gonzalo Fernández Castaño will return to competition after a very long wait. It’s the way the Web.com Tour schedule is and because of his actual ranking within the Web.com itself.
Be that as it may, the Madrid native has taken full advantage of this break from competition of just about two months to practice long and hard and to come back even stronger. He has been working with José Gutiérrez and Randy Smith, just as he mentioned in his blog earlier this week.
Gonzalo will start this Thursday in the Brazil Champions by Embrace, tournament held at the Sao Paulo Golf Club, a relatively short course but very technical, where Peter Malnati won last year. It will be, without a doubt, a good precursor for the Río de Janeiro Olympic Games, although it’s not only not held on the same course, but not in the same city either.
Gonzalo will go out to play together with Tyler Duncan and Ian Davis starting at 12:00 noon local time, five in the afternoon Spanish time, on the tee of the 10th hole.
