If a strong wind isn't enough to take you off your golf game, back-to-back double bogeys certainly will.
Moose Jaw's Ken Bradley had a rough, blustery start to Thursday's third round at the Canadian Senior Men's Golf Championship in Sault Ste Marie, Ont., but was able to right the ship enough to card an 80.
"I hit two poor tee shots and tried to recover from both of them and I just didn't do it," said Bradley, who is 15-over-par and tied for 31st for the first three days of the tournament. "One of them was behind a big tree and the other was stuck on a log I had to just chip out. I couldn't get it up and down, and I had two double bogeys."
The two men Bradley played with, Ontarians Alasdair Cayley and John Marlow, each shot 72 for the day in the rough conditions. Bradley isn't sure if their experience rubbed off enough to help turn those bogeys into pars.
"It would be nice, but it depends on the weather. It sounds like it might be rainy tomorrow with the wind, so that could be even worse," he said.
