Hanging Tough in Texas

In the opening round of the 2015 Valero Texas Open, Michael Thompson hits his 144-yard approach in to 4 feet on the par-5 8th hole then holes the putt for birdie.

Over the last couple of days at the Valero Texas Open, Michael Thompson posted consecutive rounds of one over par 73 and is currently tied for 26th.  The wind has been blowing in San Antonio and the scoring has been high.  The cut fell at a hefty six over par.  Despite the difficult conditions, Michael has been able to make enough birdies, especially on the par 5's, to compensate for the inevitable bogeys that TPC San Antonio has been handing out.

Michael will be playing with Andres Romero and Fabian Gomez for Saturday's third round.  They tee off from the first hole at 10:15am local time (11:15am ET).
