Stricker leads Els by 1 stroke at Regions Tradition

Steve Stricker holds a narrow one-shot lead over Ernie Els after the opening round of the Regions Tradition, the first major championship of the PGA Tour Champions season.

Stricker carded a 4-under 68 at Greystone Golf and Country Club on Thursday, while Els sits one stroke back after a 3-under 69.

Stricker, the 2021 Regions Tradition champion, made four birdies and an eagle on the front nine, but he gave two strokes back with bogeys on Nos. 10 and 12. He steadied the ship with a birdie on No. 13 and finished with five pars.

Els, the 2012 Regions Tradition winner, birdied four of his first eight holes and made the turn in 4-under 32. He dropped a shot on the par-4 10th hole, but he rebounded with a birdie on the par-5 13th to get back within one of Stricker.

The Ryder Cup is behind schedule in more ways than one | Tuesday Takes

Despite a valiant effort, the United States fell one point short of securing the Ryder Cup trophy on home soil. As the dust settles on Whistling Straits, it’s clear that Team USA has plenty of work to do if they want to reclaim the Cup in Italy next year.

Team USA struggled with consistency throughout the week, particularly in their putting. The Americans also found themselves outmatched in the foursomes and four-ball formats, where they were unable to generate enough momentum to overcome a strong European team.

While the outcome was disappointing, there were some bright spots for the United States. Collin Morikawa and Dustin Johnson both had impressive performances, and Scottie Scheffler showed signs of his growing talent. If Team USA can build on these performances and address their weaknesses, they have the potential to be a force to be reckoned with in 2023.
