World No. 222 Robert Garrigus tossed up a 5-under-par 35-32=67 in the third round of the Houston Open for a 54-hole total of 11-under 205, up 23 spots on the live leaderboard to T7, three back of clubhouse leader Ian Poulter.
This is the 40-year-old's ninth appearance with two prior top 25s, including a T20 last year, and one top 10 (T5/2007). He's got one top 25 so far this season among six cashes in 11 events, a T8 at the Farmers six starts ago. The Phoenix resident hit 10 (of 14) fairways and 15 greens in regulation, gaining 0.896 strokes off-the-tee and 1.259 around-the-green. He squared a lone bogey-6 at hole 8 (3-putt from 33'4"), outpaced by six birdies at 3, 7, 11, 13, 15 and 18, three from between 15 and 28 feet, adding a hole-out 3 from a greenside bunker at 11 (from 32'0" away). The Idaho native posted 1.733 putts per GIR and 2.159 SG: Putting with 28 total putts. Mar 31 - 5:05 PM
World No. 250 Robert Garrigus styled a 2-under-par 35-35=70 in the final round of the Farmers Insurance Open to finish up on 6-under 282, up 22 places on the live leaderboard to T9.
This was the 40-year-old's first top 25 of the season among four cashes in six starts. If the top 10 holds, it'll be his first since three straight top 10s in late-July early-August last year at the Barbasol, RBC Canadian Open and Barracuda. After kicking off in 69-70-73, the Idaho native began T31 on 4-under, four shy of the overnight top 10. He conjured four (of 14) fairways and eight greens in regulation, gaining 1.492 strokes around-the-green and 2.732 tee-to-green. The Phoenix resident squared two bogeys at holes 4 and 18, outpaced by four circles at 5, 9, 12 and 13, three from inside of 10 feet and a 21-footer from just off the green at 12. He registered 1.625 putts per GIR and 2.071 SG: Putting with 24 total putts. This was Garrigus' 13th Farmers, third top 25 and second top 10 (T6/2013). Jan 28 - 5:51 PM
Robert Garrigus blitzed TPC Summerlin to the tune of a 6-under-par 32-33=65 during round two of the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open, climbing to 7-under 135 at the midpoint to stake an early claim of the clubhouse lead.
Battling crosswinds in the morning, the morning wave averaged more than 3/4 of a stroke over par, but Garrigus didn't seem to be bothered. He split nine (of 14) fairways and pelted 16 greens in regulation. The ball-striking was superb but his flat stick was even better. He walked off the course gaining 4.539 strokes putting on the round, splashing home a trio of putts from outside 10 feet. The lone blemish came at the par-4 18th where he found a greenside bunker and then splashed out into the water, leading to a double bogey. An eight-pack of birdies easily erased the big number. If this lead holds by day's end, it will be his fourth career 36-hole lead/co-lead on TOUR, first since the 2014 Valspar Championship. Fri, Nov 3, 2017 03:55:00 PM
World No. 188 Robert Garrigus is at the Silverado Resort and Spa for this week's Safeway Open.
The Idaho native is 5-for-7 at the Safeway with three top 25s and a best of T12 in 2014 (CordeValle GC). He missed the cut in 2015, the kickoff at Silverado, and posted T26 last year (73-68-72-66). The Phoenix resident finished 109th in the final FedExCup standings last season after an 109th-place finish the season prior. He went 14-for-26 with six top 25s and three top 10s, two of the latter were at opposite-field events, and the third was a season-best T5 at the RBC Canadian Open. The 39-year-old bowed out of the Playoffs with a MC at THE NORTHERN TRUST. Wed, Oct 4, 2017 01:29:00 PM
