We caught up with current leader @dwhitbysmith after his first round at the #PGAPlayOffs23 and found out how he got on, whether he’s thinking about the top prize and what he’ll do to relax before the next round 🙌🏼

Grehan enjoyed a solid start to his round after picking up a birdie on the par 3 fifth to enter the back nine one-under-par. A bogey at the 12th hampered his progress slightly but a birdie at the 14th was followed by an eagle at the par 5 18th to finish on 68.
James Ruth (James Ruth Golf Coaching), Jordan Loft (Prince’s Golf Club) and Craig Lee (Craig Lee Golf Studio) are all tied in third position on three-under-par with 36 holes to play.
As well as a £25,000 prize fund, the top three finishers in the PGA Play-Offs win coveted spots in various DP World Tour events, such as the ISPS Handa World Invitational and Betfred British Masters.
Commenting on the prizes up fro grabs, Whitby-Smith added: “That’s what we’re all out here for, but when you’re out on the course you’re not really thinking about it, you’re just trying to post a good score and hopefully, you’re somewhere in the mix coming down the stretch on the final day.”
