The leaders in both fields were only one stroke ahead of second place at the start of championship Sunday and the MPO field in particular had an unprecedented number of players within striking distance of the lead.
Round 1 saw hot scores as players in both the FPO and MPO fields navigated through tight gaps in the woods and took advantage of calm conditions out in the open at Brazos Park East.
The second stop of the 2023 season promises better weather and the return of a couple of familiar faces. While the Las Vegas Challenge forced players to contend with cold temperatures and ripping winds, calmer conditions in Waco will give players the opportunity to focus on shaping their shots through the woods and showcasing their distance in the open along the Brazos River in central Texas.
