AUGUSTA, Ga. — It was a solid opening round for the two Utah golfers in the field at the 83rd annual Masters at Augusta National Golf Club.
Lehi’s Tony Fnau, coming off a top-10 finish in his first Masters last year, fired a 1-under-par 71, while former BYU golfer Mike Weir, who lives in Sandy, shot his best round in five years at Augusta National with an even-par 72.
That put Finau in a tie for 12th place with several golfers still on the course, while Weir is in good position to make the cut, in a tie for 30th place.
