The caddie for Camilo Villegas is off to a good start in his bid to join his boss on the PGA Tour.
Brett Waldman holed a bunker shot for eagle on his first hole and finished with a 3-under 68 at Orange County National on Wednesday in the first of six rounds of PGA Tour qualifying.
Kyle Stanley had a 7-under 65 on the Crooked Cat course for a two-shot lead over Scott Weatherly, Ben Martin and Stanford graduate Joseph Bramlett.
Waldman has not been in Q-school in eight years, but decided to give it a try this year. He is among nine players in the final stage to have made it through three stages.
