Burlington, Ont., native Michael Gligic carded a 4-under-par 68 in the lightning delayed opening round of the Web.com Tour’s Nashville Golf Open benefitting the Snedeker Foundation to sit T9 after 18 holes at Nashville Golf and Athletic Club.
Playing on a sponsor exemption this week the Burlington, Ont., native started on hole No. 10 pouring in three birdies on his first nine holes to make the turn at 3 under.
Four more birdies on the back nine, along with a bogey and double-bogey put him six strokes back of Conrad Shindler (Phoenix, Ariz.) who posted a 10-under-par 62 in the opening round.
