MILTON, Ont. — Jonas Blixt has always struggled with overthinking on the golf course. But the Swede cleared his mind on Monday for two rounds to finish atop the leaderboard in a U.S Open qualifying tournament at RattleSnake Point Golf Club. Blixt was tied for the lead after the day's opening round and finished the day alone at No. 1 with an overall score of 10 under.
Jonas Blixt leads by 1 despite JKevin Na going low again at Colonial
FORT WORTH, Texas — Kevin Na enjoys Colonial and has the cluster of low rounds to prove it. Na eagled the par-5 first hole Friday on the way to an 8-under 62, his third score at least that good in the past six rounds on the cozy course made famous by Ben Hogan. Na, tied for second at 8 under with first-round leader Tony Finau, trailed Jonas Blixt by one halfway through Colonial.
