Kentuckians at the Open

I'm sensing a hug!

J.B. Holmes and Kenny Perry are in Scotland this week competing in The British Open Championship. They both have completed their first round. The weather is apparently awesome, which in Scotland means overcast in the mid-50s with a small breeze.

Perry completed his round with a +1 (71) and is in a tie for 70th place at the moment. He didn't knock himself out of the Championship, but there is definitely work to be done. Maybe Kenny can check out his new best friend's Twitter account for a motivational message.

J.B. finished an up-and-down round moments ago with a solid -2 (68) and is four off the lead. Holmes had five birdies on the mostly windless day and if he can find his putting stroke, the big hitter could make some noise.

Darius dominated the southern hemisphere recently. Hopefully, one of these two guys can take The Open to continue Kentucky's path to world domination.
