The expedition to the bushes turned out to be fruitful, because Kizzire found a satisfactory hole in the branches. He hit his second shot in the middle of the fairway without any problem.
His third shot on the fifth par-4 was 152 yards. He struck his iron shot at five feet and gave himself a chance to save the peer after his embarrassing training.
However, Kizzire exploded the five -feet put in front of the hole and had to be satisfied with Bogey.
