Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño shot a 70 in the first round of the Albertsons Boise Open in the Web.com Tour Finals. He’s currently one shot away from the cut, far from the objective he set for this week, but with room to work with.
The Madrid native made three birdies and two bogeys, coming up a bit short at the demanding Hillcrest CC, a course where there are many low-scoring cards. Gonzalo hit the ball well off the tee, but he hasn’t been as accurate in the past few tournaments on his shots to green. Be that as it may, there’s still room to improve, and he’s not far off from the top of the rankings. To be specific, he’s just four shots away from the fifth place position.
Additionally, he’ll play in the morning session today, always an advantage due to the fact that the greens are in better condition, and it’s easier to make putts. The first goal today will be to shoot below a 70, essential condition to continue in the fight.
