Tracking local golfers on the PGA Tour for Nov. 12
This week: OHL Classic of Mayakoba, Thursday through Sunday, El Camaleon Golf Club, Playa del Carmen, Mexico.
In the field: Olympia’s Andres Gonzales and Gig Harbor’s Kyle Stanley.
First-round scores: Gonzales shot an even-par 71, and Stanley had a 1-over 72.
Positions: Gonzales is tied for 83rd, and Stanley is tied for 99th — both trailing co-leaders Aaron Baddely, Derek Fathauer, Justin Leonard and Shawn Stefani (6-under 65).
Recap: Gonzales, the Capital High graduate, made his fair share of birdies (five) but had just as many bogeys. He was 2 over through 11 holes after starting at No. 10, but he bounced back with birdies at third, fourth and sixth holes. … Stanley made the turn at even par, only to bogey No. 1, and he hit his drive out of bounds at No. 2, leading to a double bogey.
Tee times Friday: Stanley at 4:50 a.m. (PDT), and Gonzales at 5 a.m. Both go off the first tee.
