David Duval signed for a 4-over-par 39-37=76 after his opening round of the Children's Miracle Network Classic.
He hit just 10 GIR and still required 31 putts at Disney's Palm Course, which was the PGA Tour's easiest course in all of 2008. Duval entered the tournament ranked 125th on the money list, so he needs a very low number on Friday afternoon to make the cut. Short of that, he'd be off to the final stage of Q School, but even on conditional status, he'd have no trouble getting 22-25 starts with sponsor exemptions in 2010; that is, if he wanted to play that often.
