Guillermo Pereira had a great day by finishing a round of -5 shots. Past that left him satisfied and with very good feelings. “I played very solid, no bogeys, so happy with how this week started. I hit very well off the start and on such a narrow course, it is essential to be well placed. Then I rode well too, so it was a good combination. commented Mito.
A result that occurs in an area that entertains the national. “It’s a pitch where you have to move the ball both ways and I like that. For the past few weeks I’ve always missed getting some of my neat playthroughs, hopefully I’ll get it this week “, he added.
Finally, Mito commented on the big tournament that is coming next week for Chilean golf: the Zurich Open. An event where the Chilean will be the duo of Niemann and they will seek to beat the best on the planet. “We’ve been looking forward to this event ever since I got my PGA TOUR card.

Niemann changes after Augusta

This event in South Carolina is his first contest after his excellent stint at the Augusta Masters, where he finished in 35th place and shared two heats with Tiger Woods. But with a new event, changes have also come for the 23-year-old Chilean. “I was very focused on the start of my round, I had made some adjustments to my swing and wanted to see what they looked like and I started well, although then I made three putts that weren’t not good, but then the putter started working great. “, he commented.
A change that occurs after the weekend in Augusta. “After the Masters I didn’t feel like I was hitting well and I worked with my coach a bit and I think he put me in a place where I’m comfortable with my swing and that do well. said Niemann.
On his first day at Harbor Town Golf Links, the man from Talagan had nothing but words of comfort. “It’s a very fun field, where you have to move the ball a lot, hit fades dough attracted , hits high or low depending on the hole.
