Harris English kept up his strong play on the west coast swing of the PGA Tour during round one of the
Farmers Insurance Open. English's 5 under par 67 was good enough to put him in a tie for 17th place heading into today's second round. The 67 was the low score posted by the eight Bulldogs in the field.
Bubba Watson, who is the defending champions at the Farmers, carded a 3 under 69 while Brendon Todd and Chris Kirk are each tied for 55th at 2 under par. Erik Compton is tied for 83rd at even par, Kevin Kisner and Ryuji Imada are both tied for 100th at 1 over par, and Brian Harman is tied for 116th at 2 over par.

Saturday is College Day at the Farmers Insurance Open. All players who make the cut are encouraged to wear the colors of their respective college or university.
