LOS ANGELES – As if a hard and fast Riviera Country Club and wind gusts to 35 mph weren’t enough of a challenge, Wyndham Clark began the third round of the Genesis Invitational with one eye on the exit.
“I almost withdrew before we played, but I just told my caddie, 'Hey, let's just see what we can do out there,'” said Clark, who tweaked a muscle in his back while warming up.
Clark birdied the first hole before officials halted play because of the high winds. Turns out, the four-hour delay was exactly what he needed.
