Day One: J.T. Poston is first player on record to open consecutive TOUR events with 62 or better
From PGA TOUR Daily Wrap-up, by The AP:
In the opening round of the 2022 John Deere Classic, J.T. Poston turned in the low round of the day with a 9-under 62, placing him three strokes ahead of the field heading into Friday.
SILVIS, Ill. — J.T. Poston shot a 9-under 62 on Thursday to take a two-stroke lead in the PGA TOUR's John Deere Classic.
Coming off a second-place tie last week in Connecticut, Poston eagled the par-5 second and had seven birdies in a bogey-free round at TPC Deere Run.
“It’s, obviously, why you practice and why you work as hard as you do on your game,” Poston said. “Any time you can have those rounds where you really get it going low and mistake-free, bogey-free is a bonus. It’s why you work at it and why you practice the way we do.” Read more
