RIO GRANDE, Puerto Rico – Marquette University junior men's golfer Johan Widal carded a 4-under 68 in first round action at the Puerto Rico Classic at Grand Reserve Golf Club on Monday and is tied for ninth individually.
The Golden Eagles are 10th as a team after posting a 3-under 285 in Monday's opening round, and are three strokes out of a tie for sixth with four teams at 6-under par. Ole Miss and tournament-host Purdue lead the event after 18 holes at 16-under and 14-under, respectively.
Widal's day began on the par-4 12th hole and included a team-best seven birdies, including a pair of three-hole birdie runs on Nos. 17-18, 1 and Nos. 4-6.
True freshman Vincent Cervantes posted three birdies on both the front and back and is tied for 29th with teammate Max Lyons with a 1-under 71.
The Golden Eagles are paired with Minnesota and College of Charleston for Tuesday's second round, which is slated to begin with a shotgun start at 6:30 a.m. Central time. The three squads will head off the 10th-13th tees.
