This week: Nationwide Tour's Price Cutter Charity Championship, Thursday through Sunday, Highland Springs Country Club, Springfield, Mo.
First-round score: 6-under-par 66.
Position: Putnam is tied for third with eight other golfers, two strokes behind leader Colt Knost (64).
Recap: Stick around this sport long enough, and something rare happens. For the first time in competitive golf, the Tacoma native had two eagles in one round, which was the biggest reason he tied his best opening score of the season (shot 66 at the Athens Regional Foundation Classic in April). Putnam holed out his wedge approach from 115 yards out on the 400-yard, par-4 third, and eagled the par-5 11th. Putnam doubled his output on eagles this season – his only other one came in the final round of the Mexico Open in February. The last time Putnam eagled a par-4 hole was the third round of the 2007 U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club near Pittsburgh.
Tee time Friday: 5:10 a.m. PDT off the 10th tee.
