Andre Metzger, Brett White, Dalton Ward advance to 2023 WM Phoenix Open via Monday qualifier

In what has to count as a minor miracle, the 96-man 2023 WM Phoenix Open Monday qualifier did not go to a playoff.

Andre Metzger of Scottsdale shot the round of the day on the Pine Course, a bogey-free 65 that included birdies on Nos. 14, 16 and 17.

Brett White of Houston and Dalton Ward of Saint Simons Island, Georgia, each shot 66 to tie for second. White had eight birdies on his card. Ward also had a bogey-free day with six birdies.

Only the top three advance and generally this qualifier needs a playoff to decide things.

I will post full interview with Andre Metzger when I get to wifi, but this was too good to not post right now.
