Doug Ghim from Arlington Heights goes low in the morning round on Thursday, shooting -9. Max goes -8, Ricky goes -6.

Hardy and Campbell appear to be the only 2 from the beloved to be in the field, both are afternoon rounds. Nick -2 early. Kind of surprised JB, Guthrie and ADDC didn't at least get exemptions to get in....they normally like having U of I golfers in the field.
