 Nathan has put together a solid tournament at the Honda Classic at Palm Beach Gardens in Florida, finishing in 23rd position, his best finish of the year to date.
Nathan's final round of 70 promised a little better early in the day with birdies at the 2nd and 3rd holes but although he was unable to capitalsie on the good start it was a much imporved effort compared to his earlier starts this season. Without a start at the WGC event in Miami this week, Nathan has decided to forego a start at the Puerto Rico Open and will instead take a week off in Florida before playing next week's Transitions Championship in Palm Harbor near Tampa. |

Nathan has produced a great second round at the Honda Classic at Palm Beach Gardens in Florida, his round of 67 bettered only by the ridiculously good 64 of Rory Sabbatini. The round moved Nathan from the threat of another missed cut to even par and into a share of 18th position at the halfway stage of the tournament. Nathan's round and perhaps his tournament were turned around by a quick burst of three birdies early in his back nine today. "It's still not feeling great but I did make a few putts in the middle which was nice," said Nathan after his round. "The wind was not as strong as yesterday but it was still blowing pretty hard." Nathan plans on taking a week off in Florida next week and so is keen to take advantage of the position he has created for himself at this stage of this week's event. |
