Schneider Leads At Eagle’s Bluff Men’s Club Golf Championship
BULLARD — The Eagle’s Bluff Country Club course proved beastly again for the Men’s Club Golf Championship.

Only three of the 15 players broke 80 in the first round of the 54-hole event.

Paul Schneider led the way with a 5-over 76 from the tips.

“The course played 7,000 yards with windy conditions for most of the day,” said Eagle’s Bluff head pro Mark Cote. “It was calm at the end of the day. That’s not a bad score under the conditions.

“The rough is very challenging. The greens are rolling good and the fairways are good.”

Dr. Frank Duphorne, the three-time defending champion, opened with an 81 for fourth place. Jeff Kannard is in second place with a 78, followed by Rick Meewes at 79.

Schneider, who finished third last year, made his only birdie Friday on No. 1, a 529-yard par-5. He had six bogeys to get to 5 over.

The leaders will tee off today at 10:20 a.m. They will play late into the evening on Sunday.
