Dubai’s Rayhan Thomas made a strong start at Stage 2 of the PGA Tour Qualifying School, presented by Korn Ferry, in Savannah, Georgia, shooting a first-round four-under-par 68 to lie in a tied 17th position.
Starting from tee 10 at the Landings Golf & Athletic Club’s Deer Creek course, Rayhan dropped a shot on the par-3 12th, his third hole. However, he quickly recovered with birdies on holes 14, 16, and 17, turning in two-under 34.
On the back nine, Rayhan remained composed, finishing with seven pars and birdies on holes 5 and 6, returning another solid 34 for an overall score of 68.
“I played pretty solid – hit the ball well,” Rayhan told Khaleej Times. “I just need to hole a few putts. The golf course is there for the taking if only I had putted a bit better today.
“I am feeling physically a lot better following a minor respiratory infection I caught in Spain last week,” he added.
“I have my buddy Jordan Wilson on the bag this week and we are having a fun week. I am excited with what is ahead of me in tomorrow’s second round, bring it on.”
Leading the field after round one is Zach James (US) from Frisco, Texas, who shot a nine-under 63, with nine birdies and nine pars—including a 29 on his front nine.
In the second round, Rayhan will tee off at 9.40 am (Local Savannah time), off Tee 1.
