Byrd (63) making most of sponsor invite at Greenbrier
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W. Va – In the days leading up to The Greenbrier Classic, Jonathan Byrd wasn’t even sure if he’d get a chance to tee it up. Now that he’s in the field, he plans to make the most of his opportunity.
Byrd opened with a bogey-free 63 on the Old White TPC, and at 7 under he sits one shot behind Scott Langley. Byrd has only conditional status this season on the PGA Tour, and he is playing on a sponsor invite after the spot previously allocated to Johnson Wagner opened up once Wagner made the field on his own merit.
