Congaree had a great showing in Round 1 as the hunt for the biggest fall event is underway
Just about everything one would want from a big-time golf tournament was in play Thursday during Round 1 of the 2022 CJ Cup. Some stars played well, while others missed 2-foot putts. One player hit his irons better than nearly anyone in the last two decades. Two early-week media room darlings shot a combined double digits under par.
And of course, Congaree Golf Clubs showed out in its first PGA Tour appearance since summer 2021.
Trey Mullinax and Gary Woodland share the lead at 6 under a quarter of the way through the tournament, but they're going to have some problems in the form of top 25 players in the world coming around the turn as the week wears on. Regardless, they're the two we'll focus on as we take a look at what happened on Thursday at the biggest PGA Tour event of the fall in the CJ Cup.
