The Farmers Insurance Open has created a massive problems, not only for golfers who are new to the world of professionals, but also for experienced golfers who have had similar experiences during their careers.
Adam Svensson, the Canadian golfer, was motivated to make a great result, but the winds, which caused problems for most, were just as lethal for him. At one point, the game was stopped, and the 31-year-old golfer received such news in the most difficult situation possible.
Namely, the 31-year-old was in the final shot for birdie on the last hole. During the swing, a siren was heard. Still, he continued to hit, missing a ten-foot putt by quite a distance before finishing with par.
Adam was two strokes over par, which was one stroke under the projected cut. The Canadian golfer thus missed a great chance, but it must be admitted that luck was not on his side.
It's hard to imagine how the Canadian felt at that moment. However, this will be an important lesson for him in the future, and a chance to raise his level of play. We're certain that luck will be on his side in a future tournament.
Ludvig Aberg
On the other hand, some golfers excelled, like Ludvig Aberg, who played brilliantly, although at some moments he could have done more. He shot nine under with a 63 in the first round, but the second round was quite difficult for him.
Aberg, as well as other golfers, primarily talked about the difficult conditions, aware that in favorable conditions their result would probably be quite better. However, each of the golfers had to adapt, show how they cope with unpredictable situations, and take an important step.
Aberg wants to use the advantage, getting the wind at his back when it comes to the next tournaments. The 25-year-old will have to stay calm if he wants to celebrate.
