Fleetwood spins bogey-free 68 in first WGC

Tommy Fleetwood pured a bogey-free, 4-under-par 36-32=68 in his opening round of the World Golf Championships-HSBC Champions.

Keep on this 22-year-old Brit if you aren't already. Fleetwood is making his debut in a WGC this week, but he walked around Sheshan International like a boss. He surrounded an eagle-3 at the 14th hole with birdies at 11 and 17 to finish just one stroke back of the clubhouse co-leaders.

Axley surprising PRO 36-hole clubhouse leader

Eric Axley chased his opening 68 at the Puerto Rico Open with a 6-under-par 33-33=66 in his second round to post 10-under 134, good for outright possession of the 36-hole clubhouse lead.

We'd say that the lefty is turning back the clock, but even that time machine doesn't have a setting. He converted seven birdies against only one bogey today. This is the first time that he's connected subpar scores since the middle round of the 2012 Sanderson Farms Championship.

Reed goes in the books as WGC-Cadillac leader

Patrick Reed enjoyed a 4-under-par 34-34=68 for his opening round of the World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship, good for outright possession of the 18-hole lead.

After six others could manage but a 69, Reed took it one deeper on the strength of seven birdies, including on each of the four par 5s at Trump National Doral. He hit the ground running with a birdie-4 at 10. After a par at 11, he went birdie-birdie-birdie at 12-14. The first of the spurt found the cup from the fringe five yards away. The second two birdies were conventional, measuring 16'8" and 29'3", respectively. Overall, he split eight (of 14) fairways and hit only 11 greens in regulation. Reed couldn't have asked for a better debut in a stroke-play WGC.

Danny Lee hits all 18 greens in Puerto Rico

Danny Lee flashed supreme precision on approach en route to a 5-under-par 34-33=67 in his opening round of the Puerto Rico Open.

Lee split nine (of 14) fairways but landed all 18 greens in regulation at Trump International Golf Club-Puerto Rico today. He converted six birdies to help hide a three-putt bogey at the par-3 sixth hole. The 23-year-old signed his card sitting one stroke off the clubhouse lead. He needs a big week in a bad way as he's cashed just twice in nine starts this season. He entered the week riding an 0-for-6 skid.

J. Day WDs at WGC-Cadillac; issues statement

Jason Day withdrew from the World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship prior to his opening round, citing a thumb injury.

The Aussie was scheduled to go off the 10th tee at 11:44 a.m. ET. He took last week off following his win at the WGC-Match Play. Shortly thereafter, Day issued the following statement (in its entirety): "My left thumb was bothering me at the Accenture Match Play Championship and the pain continued here this week. I had an MRI yesterday here in Miami with Dr. Lee Kaplan. Fortunately, the MRI was negative, but the doctor prescribed rest if I was unable to play today. My plan is to rest for a couple of weeks. I'm sorry to miss the Cadillac Championship; it looks like it's going to be a great event."

Brian Stuard alone atop PRO after 18 holes

Brian Stuard posted a 6-under-par 31-35=66 in his opening round of the Puerto Rico Open, good for outright possession of the overnight lead.

He started on the back side of Trump International Golf Club-Puerto Rico and promptly circled five birdies before the turn. Stuard picked up two more at 2 and 3 before suffering his only blemish of the round with a bogey-5 at No. 7. He tied for fourth last year and didn't shoot higher than 69 in any round. The non-winner is seeking to become the fourth first-time champion in seven editions of the tournament.

Dubuisson grabs Special Temporary Membership

Victor Dubuisson has accepted Special Temporary Membership [STM] on the PGA TOUR.

The Match Play runner-up is the first of the season to qualify. STM grants three benefits: 1) Unlimited sponsor exemptions; 2) Unlimited starts; 3) Placement in the Beyond 150 (Past Champion category) Reshuffle. Non-members are capped at 12 starts plus THE PLAYERS, so by taking STM, the implication is that Dubuisson will exceed the previous restriction, but it's not unusual for those with STM not to. Ryo Ishikawa (2012) and Jordan Spieth (2013) are actually exceptions that did take advantage of the perks. Dubuisson will qualify for all of the majors, WGCs and THE PLAYERS for certain. However, unless he wins, he will remain ineligible for the FedExCup Playoffs and his earnings do not count toward the official money list. STM is a bonus of sorts, but Dubuisson figures to be more valuable in 2014-15 as a fully exempt PGA TOUR member (eligible for the FedExCup Playoffs and official money list) assuming he accepts membership next season.

Oosthuizen remains a question mark for Doral

As he prepares for this week's World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship, Louis Oosthuizen continues to battle a back injury that forced him to withdraw early from last week's Honda Classic.

Asked if he'll be able to give it a go, Oosthuizen said, "It doesn't feel like that at the moment, but I'll see. "I played nine holes (Sunday), which was OK, but then I was really sore the next day." Guaranteed FedExCup points and earnings are up for grabs, but he'd need to complete the tournament to collect. (He'd receive unofficial money with a WD at any point, but he needs to hit one ball for it to count as a start toward the membership minimum of 15.) His intent isn't just to play Doral; he also wants to compete in the Masters in five weeks. "I want to play next week badly because I missed Honda. "I hope everything goes well through next week and then have two weeks off. I’'ll speak to my doctor to assess things, maybe get another scan and just have a look at what's going on and then take it from there. Even if I have to miss Houston and just go up to Augusta, I'll do that. There's no way I'm not going to give Augusta a shot."

Lickliter II among the four-spotters for PRO

Two-time PGA TOUR winner Frank Lickliter was one of the four golfers to survive the open qualifier for this week's Puerto Rico Open.

Results are supposed to be linked below, but the pages associated with the scoring and tee times are broken. The OQ was contested at Bahia Beach Resort & Golf Club in Rio Grande. In his only previous start this season, FL2 missed the cut at the Sony Open in Hawaii where he was also a four-spotter. The other three berths into the tournament proper went to Danny Balin, Timothy Puetz and Julian Etulian. Balin is a PGA professional from Connecticut. He's missed the cut in each of his four PGA TOUR starts, all of which in the last four editions of the PGA Championship. Puetz also is a PGA pro but in New York. He'll be making his PGA TOUR debut. Etulian of Argentina has conditional status on the Web.com Tour. He finished sixth in the Order of Merit on the 2013 PGA TOUR Latinoamérica. In his only previous start on the PGA TOUR, Etulian tied for 42nd at the 2011 Puerto Rico Open. The field at Trump International Golf Club-Puerto Rico is now complete at 132.

Micheel emerges in the Chile Classic field

Shaun Micheel has been added to the published field of this week's Chile Classic on the Web.com Tour.

We noted his statement on the PGA TOUR's SiriusXM station last week that he was planning on making the trip despite his doctor's hesitation. However, he didn't appear in the field when it was released on Friday afternoon. One reason for the confusion is that he knew in advance that he'd be granted entry (via a conduit that we cannot confirm right now) and it wasn't until Monday that the official process caught up with it. Either way, this is a relatively aggressive choice given he had a procedure on his heart on Feb. 20. He's endured his fair share of physical setbacks over the years, but nothing quite like this.

World's top-ranked am will turn pro in spring

Patrick Rodgers announced today that he will turn professional following the conclusion of his junior year at Stanford University this spring.

Rodgers is a two-time All-American and currently sits No. 1 in the World Amateur Golf Ranking. "I want to formally announce that my intention for the future is to turn professional at the end of this season," he said. "I came to this decision with a clear understanding of the impact it might have and had countless conversations with my parents and coach weighing the options and ensuring I made the best decision." In his only appearance on the PGA TOUR in 2013, he tied for 15th at the John Deere Classic. Expect him to lasso a handful of sponsor exemptions and don't rule out a burst on the Web.com Tour and potential qualification for the Web.com Tour Finals.

Henley the final man into the field at Doral

Russell Henley has qualified for this week's World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship via the Official World Golf Ranking.

Henley's victory at The Honda Classic boosted him to 46th in the updated OWGR. The top 50 tonight gained entry into the field at Trump National Doral; he was the only golfer to climb inside the bubble this weekend. A total of 69 golfers qualified for the WGC-Cadillac. Henley tied for 28th as a PGA TOUR rookie in last year's edition.
