LACC director Tom Gardner was the “marker” for the first third-round US Open tee time on Saturday because an odd number of players had made the cut.
LOS ANGELES — Tom Gardner played the dream round of his life on Saturday … at his own golf course, one he probably has played more than 100 times.
“I get a text from a member, and he said, ‘You’re in,’ “Gardner said after the round Saturday. “I immediately called him, I said, ‘No, I’m not.’ All of a sudden, I started getting a lot of text messages and a lot of emails and the club sent out an email to the membership.“It’s pretty special to do this in front of your membership on the course that you work at. If you were out here this morning on the first tee, there was a pretty loud roar. Got the juices flowing a bit.
“I love competing. I love playing golf. I’m not a [U.S. Open] competitor, but to be able to say that I got to play a US Open setup on the weekend and see what it’s like and see the energy of the crowd and see the pins and the firmness and the rough and everything that goes along with it, it’s … I can’t really describe it.’’
