This week: Nationwide Tour's Knoxville Open, Thursday through Sunday, Fox Den Country Club, Knoxville, Tenn.

First-round score: 5-under-par 67.

Position: Putnam is tied for 11th, two strokes behind five other golfers at 7-under, including Blake Adams, who has completed only 14 holes.

Recap: Yeah, the Tacoma golfer added to his tour-leading total of eagles – nine – after making one at the opening par-5 hole. But the best sign of his round is that he made no bogeys.

Tee time Friday: 6:25 a.m. PDT.

This week: PGA Tour's St. Jude Classic, Thursday through Sunday, TPC Southwind, Memphis, Tenn.

First round score: 2-over-par 72.

Position: Kelly is tied for 96th, eight strokes behind Brian Gay (64).

Recap: Well, considering the Tacoma resident posted a big number early his round a quadruple bogey-8 on the par-4 12th, he did settle down from that point on. In fact, he reeled off three consecutive birdies on Nos. 14 through 16 – the last coming on a 27-foot putt on the dogleg-right par-5.

Tee time Friday: 11:21 a.m. PDT off the first tee.
