When you’re at a tournament, how to you start your day?
I’ll go straight to the range. I’ll start with my wedges, then I’ll work my way through my bag and finish with my driver. After that, I’ll head over to the putting green and finish with a few chips then head out onto the course.
Head to the Range or the Course?
