Playing in his first tournament of the�2005 season�and carrying a brand new set of clubs, Fred Couples shot a first round 74 (+2) at the Buick Invitational
Starting on the first hole, Fred lost his momemtum right at the beginning, carding bogeys on the first two holes. Although Couples hit 78 % of the greens in regulation, his driving and his putting were off during the whole round. In fact, the man only found�34 % of the fairways, and hit 34 putts, which is good for 150th place ! If Fred wants to make the cut tomorrow, there is no doubt that he will have to find out a way to improve his putting.
In other news, Fred commited to play the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic, next week’s PGA Tour Event.
