After playing 25 holes the day before, Julien Brun completed his second round on Saturday morning at dawn, playing 11 holes two strokes under par. The adopted Prague still points in the top 10 at mid-tournament and can consider the rest serenely.
Julien Brun, statements
“It’s very long, always difficult to manage the expectations, the delays. Yesterday, with the two-round sequence, there was a lot of golf to play in the space of 24 hours so here I am happy that it is over.
Yes, a lot of birdies and few bogeys is very good, it’s a good start. I was consistent, I managed to take a lot of fairways and I putted well too. Fairly consistent overall. This is the first time I’ve played the tournament since last year I unfortunately didn’t enter the field.
The conditions may be more flexible than usual, but as I know the course less than the others, I am less surprised and that may be an advantage. The program for the rest of the day? I will be resting after a workout with my physio to be ready for more normal days to come over the next two days”.
The Rules of Golf are a set of standard rules and procedures by which the sport of golf should be played. They are jointly written and maintained by the Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, the governing body for golf worldwide, outside of the United States and Mexico, which are governed by the United States Golf Association.
An expert commission made up of members of the R&A and USGA, oversees and refines the rules every four years. The latest revision has been in force since January 1, 2016. Changes to the rules of golf generally fall into two main categories: those that improve understanding and those that in certain cases reduce penalties to ensure balance.
The rule book, entitled “Rules of Golf”, is published on a regular basis and also includes rules governing amateur status. In Italy it is up to Federgolf to supervise the competitions by enforcing the rules issued by the R & A, checking that these rules are observed by the Clubs, Associations and their members and manages the resulting sporting justice, protecting their interests abroad.
