On August 15th, Beijing time, the 2020-2021 PGA Tour regular season finale match Wyndham Championship, with a total prize value of US$6.4 million, entered the Giffield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina, USA It’s the third day of the competition. Russell-Henry was a great rider. He shot 69 and 1 under par on the moving day, with a total score of 195 under 15 under par, carrying a three-shot advantage to the championship.
The scene on the mobile day was affected by extreme weather-but it was not rain, but sweltering heat, and even Adam Hadwin, who was born and raised on the prairie in Saskatchewan, Canada All are angry at this intense heat. “I don’t want my worst enemy to be the weather at the scene.” Between playing, Adam Hardwin rushed to a nearby shade to escape the heat and lowered the brim of the hat. He shot 66 on the day of the move. A very good result, but he remembered nothing except the intense heat.
“This (severe heat) is the only thing I think of for the last three or four holes.” He said, “As long as you can stand still, after playing a round, think about other things.”
On the day of the move, the temperature on the site reached 90 degrees Fahrenheit (about 32 degrees Celsius), and the heat index exceeded 100 for the third consecutive day-not to mention the severe humidity, which rarely falls below 50%. When the heat subsides, the humidity will Rising to 90%, forming a stagnant, sultry swamp—just like this feeling seems to never disappear—Adam Hardwin knew he had to be prepared, and like many other golfers, he added crazy Moisture, but not enough, began to find ways to find air conditioners.
“Did you see this?” Danny McCarthy pointed to the small space in the light gray fabric at the bottom of his trousers near the toe and asked the reporter, “This is the actual color of my trousers.” Needless to say the rest: the pants. The other parts are dark gray, from the waistband to the knees, soaked in sweat.
“I sweated a lot from the beginning. This round of ball is too difficult for me. You must be mentally strong. I switched back and forth between two or three gloves and put some baby powder in the bag. , I put baby powder in my gloves and ice cubes on my hands so that my hands can cool down before each kick-off. I don’t stop using towels to wipe sweat, and ask my caddie to give me a towel before hitting the ball. , Even the ball in my pocket is soaked.” Danny McCarthy told reporters that he estimated that he had drunk 15-20 bottles of all kinds of water in this round of balls-from plain water, energy drinks to Electrolyte supplements, water, liquid and salt-Danny McCarthy said that in extreme weather it is easier to become angry and frustrated, and to remain calm after a missed shot or a difficult break. “If you miss a shot, this stadium Can make you jump up with anger.”
Russell Henry, who scored 69 and 1 under par on the mobile day, is still the leader. He tried to keep his hands dry like McCarthy, but he did not use baby powder: “I just wipe my hands with a towel. If the towel is dirty Now, I will be angry with my caddie.” He is trying to win the fourth championship of his career and his first since the 2017 Houston Open.
Almost every player interviewed by the reporter said that he had replenished electrolytes on the day of the move, and various other mysterious mixtures were kept in the bag for easy mixing with water. As Kevin Kisner said, “You can’t just drink water.” Replenishment is not just on the court — over and over again, players emphasize the need to replenish water in advance and lose water due to sweating. Replenish water immediately afterwards.
Not only the players, but the caddies are also fainted by the heat. Mookie DeMoss made a temporary backpack for Keith Mitchell (Keith Mitchell) this week, hole 18, when he took out the yard book, he found that the back pockets of his pants were all soaked, and the yard book was about to be soaked. Got to fall apart. After the end of this round of competition, Mookie DeMoss “praised” Greensboro’s popularity even surpassed the PGA Latin America Tour in Cancun and the 2015 NCAA Championship in Florida, making it the hottest match he has ever participated in.
Cole Pensanti is Kiradech Aphibarnrat’s caddy and plays for LPGA stars such as Lizette Salas and Danielle Kang. He said he was very resistant to heat, but he couldn’t stand the scene anymore: “It was very bad today. There was no breeze, which made the situation worse. In general, I gave it 8.8 points (out of 10 points), which is The worst situation I have ever experienced.”
Cole Pensanti, Kevin Kinsner and Erick Van Rooyen all believe that the worst place to play is Malaysia, where it’s hotter; Kim Si-won’s caddie Brian Vranesh thinks it’s Tokyo, Taylor -Tyler McCumber considers it to be the Punta Cana Resort in the Dominican Republic. In the continental United States, the answers have been mentioned everywhere from Bradenton, Florida to Omaha, Nebraska, to Barbasol, Alabama.
Kiradech Aphibarnrat is a native of Thailand. It stands to reason that he is very good at dealing with the heat, but surprisingly, this week he rated Greensboro as the hottest place he has played, saying that the scene is like a pot. And insisted that if a player or caddie passed out, he would not be surprised.
Erick Van Rooyen won the Barracuda Championship last week. As a South African, he is no stranger to extreme heat and has a simple way to deal with it: “Sweat more, eat well and drink well.”
In this round, Pan Zhengcong scored a good score of 66 under 4 under par, with a total score of 203 under 7 under par, rising 28 positions and tied for 28th.
