Hendley Comes in Hot
After leading wire to wire in 2015, Defending Champion Todd Hendley continued his torrid play in the SCGA Senior Championship taking a five shot lead after a first round 67 at Orangeburg Country Club.
Starting on the 10th hole, Hendley came out of the gates with a birdie three on his first hole. After his lone bogey of the day on the long par four 13th , Hendley fired right back with birdies on holes 14 and 17. Making the turn at two under par, the Greer native managed five pars in a row until a birdie two on the par three 6th and an eagle three on the par five 8th. The Defending Champion will start the second round five shots clear of his nearest competitor, just as he did in 2015.
Columbia residents, Gus Sylvan and Bob Edens are tied for second with rounds of even par 72. Seven players finished the first round tied at one over par 73.
The second round will begin Wednesday with a morning wave beginning at 8.00 a.m. and an afternoon wave starting at 12.00 p.m.
