Canadian Taylor Pendrith shot a 2-over 72 Thursday in his opening round at the PGA Championship.
The Richmond Hill, Ont., native is one of four Canadians in the field this week at Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, Pa., located just west of Philadelphia.
Nick Taylor, Corey Conners and Sudarshan Yellamaraju all had afternoon tee times Thursday in Round 1. Track their rounds here.
Pendrith began on the back-nine Thursday and made bogey on two of his first three holes, but steadied himself to an even-par round the rest of the way. He bogeyed the seventh and eight holes down the stretch but rebounded with a birdie on No. 9 to close out his round and stay within striking distance.
Pendrith sat in a tie for 63rd at the conclusion of his round, five shots back of the lead at 3-under held by Aldrich Potgieter, Stephan Jaeger, Min Woo Lee and Jordan Spieth.
