A T29 place for Graeme at The Blue Monster in Miami. Graeme opened with a 2 over Par 74 which included 5 birdies, it was a very much mixed round making birdie followed by a drop. On Day 2, G-Mac was 2 down after four holes but bounced back to complete the front nine on Par with consecutive birdies on the 17/18th (his 8th/9th on the day). On the back nine with one dropped shot on the 3rd (his 12th) he ended the day +1. His final day of the week on Sunday was his best with 3 birdies and one shot dropped. His week in Miami ended with a score of +1.

Course Details
The Blue Monster has been earning its name for over half a century, taming the greats of our game with its endless perils.
This 7,701-yard course is practically more water than land, so vast are the lakes that lie in wait around every corner. The fairways are wafer-thin, the greens are fiercely guarded and the 18th hole is one of the most ruthless finishers in all of golf.
The 2023 Team Championship was held here and produced a moment of magic that will live long in the memory. Bryson DeChambeau hit a Hail Mary Birdie on the 16th which came from behind the hospitality stand, a pivotal moment as his Crushers GC clinched one of their famous comebacks.
That’s the kind of thing that can happen at the Blue Monster. Now, who’s going to pull a rabbit from the hat this time?
Course Par: 72, Yards: 7,701
