And there was hardly anyone watching him play golf. And there were familiar names – plenty of them.

Spieth, who won the tournament past year, hit an ace on just his second hole today, making a ideal connection with a six-iron at the 172-yard par-three.
“It feels pretty small”, Walker said. He s a good player but he can t close.
And all of them played really well.
Meanwhile Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama (75) was the only player in the 18-man field who did not break par.
Sweden’s Stenson shook off an illness that hampered his buildup to record five birdies by the turn, but was less prolific over the final nine holes and finished with a six-under 66 that was matched by Van Zyl. It just continues. So, a par at one and the ace at two. Five wins. All the major awards.
Even now, Spieth appreciates what he has much more thanks to what he went through to obtain it.
This hole in one came right as the TV coverage took off. What a way to welcome the viewers.
“It’s cool. It’s been just under a week in what we started doing and it’s still something I’ve got to think about”.
Good thing he didn’t have to buy drinks.
Spieth opened with a 67 in his title defense, and he is pushing toward the finish line on Sunday.
He said: “I can certainly improve in spots of my game. Just trying to really soak it in as a half-vacation, half-tournament”. That’s apparently how the Masters champion is spending some time off next week after the Hero World Challenge.
Walker went to see Butch Harmon at the start of last week in Las Vegas to start working on a move where his head moves at impact, which keeps him from having to rely so much on timing. The reigning Crowne Plaza Invitational champ circled eight birdies en route to a 7-under 65, including five straight birdies on Nos. “Maybe spend a little bit extra time on that”. In twosomes, Walker found his groove.

The Hero World Challenge is the king of the PGA Tour’s now-limited silly season. While he isn’t wired to make drastic changes, whether to his swing or equipment, or blow up the blueprint he and his team adhered to in 2015, he’s old enough at 22 to know the status quo could use a tweak or two.
