TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Duke men's golf freshman Jimmy Zheng carded an opening-round 68 to lead the No. 25 Blue Devils on Friday at the Seminole Intercollegiate at Golden Eagle CC in Tallahassee, Fla.
Â
Zheng's impressive scorecard on Friday included four birdies plus an eagle on the par-5 18th hole to finish off his four-under 68. He closed with a spotless, five-under 31 on the back nine, with three birdies, seven pars and his eagle.
Â
The freshman from New Zealand finds himself in a tie for third place, three back of the lead with 36 holes remaining. Liberty's Alexandre Fuchs tops the leaderboard at seven-under par.
