HUMBLE, Texas – It’s getting ready to really blow at the Houston Open.
A cold front is expected to move through Houston on Friday, bringing with it late-morning thunderstorms and blustery afternoon conditions. The forecast calls for 15-25 mph sustained winds on Friday afternoon, with gusts reaching 30 mph.
In other words, things could get interesting.
Austin Cook and Talor Gooch raced out to early co-leads after each shot 8-under 64 in favorable conditions on Thursday morning. Amateur Cole Hammer fired a 67, one of 11 players in the morning wave to eclipse 68 in Round 1.
