Good or bad, birdie or bogey, these guys are just decent people. After Gig Harbor's Kyle Stanley phoned in late Tuesday, Tacoma's T.J. Bordeaux did the same thing to talk about missing the cut at the 108th U.S. Amateur:
After nine holes Tuesday, Tacoma's T.J. Bordeaux had one of the nation's most demanding golf courses – Pinehurst No. 2 – by the throat.
Thing is, it bit back.
Going out in 2-under, the Bellarmine Prep product had bogeys on three of his final four holes, and finished with a 72 in the second round of stroke play at the 108th U.S. Amateur in North Carolina.
Bordeaux's 146 total left him tied for 89th, and a stroke out of a sudden-death playoff to get into match play starting Wednesday.
"I didn't play that bad," he said. "But the littlest mistakes, and you're making bogey."
Spoke with Kyle Stanley late Tuesday night by telephone. He was pretty upbeat about his two days of golf so far at the 108th U.S. Amateur:
Gig Harbor's Kyle Stanley wouldn't go as far to call it the best golf round of his life, but he is feeling supremely confident around the grounds at Pinehurst Resort and Country Club.
Stanley, the Bellarmine Prep product and junior-to-be at Clemson, shot a 2-under-par 68 on the daunting Pinehurst No. 2 course Tuesday in the final round of stroke play at the 108th U.S. Amateur.
Here is a story filed by the USGA late Tuesday:
PINEHURST, N.C. – Robbie Fillmore, 22, of Provo, Utah, shot a 5-under-par 65 on the No. 4 course Tuesday to win medalist honors by two strokes on the second day of stroke play at the 108th U.S. Amateur at Pinehurst Resort & Country Club.
A first-team all-Mountain West Conference selection at Brigham Young University, Fillmore logged one eagle and four birdies against a sole bogey for a 36-hole total of 6-under-par 134. His 65 is the lowest score of the stroke play portion of the championship.
Two locals, Gig Harbor’s Kyle Stanley and University Place’s Andrew Putnam, earned top finishes as well. Both are tied for fifth at 138, and will play in the opening round of match play today as high seeds.
Tacoma's T.J. Bordeaux (146) missed the cut by one stroke.
