Nationwide Tour 08 - Arjun Atwal grabbed 2009 PGA Tour Card

[Kumar]

AA had a very good -1 round,, but a three putt on 2nd and poor tee shot on 5th killed his chances for weekend.. he should drop out of top 25 .. rounding up a very ordinary day for indian golfers

[Kumar]

AA is currently 27th on Money list ($5K behind the 25th) and will play in Wichita this week... He needs a win or top 3 to get some breathing room.

At Wichita Open, Arjun is -2 and in top-15 after playing 10 holes ... Currently leader is on -7 ... Go Arjun.

[Kumar]

After three hour delay, play has resumed.

[ajay]

Arjun Atwal -3 in first round, currently T20 that may fall to T. Its an average safe  start. But Arjun needs to do much better. C'mon Arjun!

Very ordinary round for AA... He will need a much better round tomorrow (at least -6 or -7) to get into contention.

[Kumar]

And AA's struggle continues in Nationwide tour... He had an mediocre even par round to finish at -3  .. currently cut  line is at -4 and there is very little chance that this will drop to -3

At Wichita Open - Second Round
----------- Cut @ -4 -----------
T62 Arjun Atwal 68 71 -3 

Arjun is making tougher calculation for himself to grabbing 2009 PGA tour card through top-25 Nationwide tour finish with these disappointing performances.

[PKBasu]

He should play a couple of weeks in Asia to get his inspiration back...it has always worked for him in the past.

[Kumar]

AA is currently 28th on the money list and time is running out to get that one big performance to guarantee his card.

He is playing XEROX classic this week .. Tee time in the afternoon...

[Kumar]

AA is one under par with 4 birds and 3 bogies...T33

[usaindian]

so far after 6 holes AA jumped to tied for 11th and 2 under for the day

update:
After 8 holes he is 3 under and tied for 4th and 2 shots away from top of the leaderboard.
he finished 2 under for day tied for 17th,that may change as others finish their rounds

[usaindian]

AA had a bad day and now tied for 41st at the end of third round

AA had a bad day and now tied for 41st at the end of third round

if yday was bad, today was horrible.. Had a 7 over round and finish T58.. very disappointing show from AA.. As every week passes by, it feels like he may not make the cut to PGA TOUR

[jaydeep]

Yes, very poor last 2 rounds ... He is slide to 30th in money leaders list and almost $ 11K behind 25th place player.
