The ball was going far. It was going straight, but it was not cutting. I can accept that. Thats really no big deal.Reed joined Woods on the bench for the afternoon, as well as Brooks Koepka and Tony Finau, who won their opening match.Ill be ready come tomorrow whenever Captain puts me out, Woods said.
