MGOLF: Davis Thompson takes Amex lead with back-to-back eagles

Davis Thompson rode consecutive eagles to the first-round lead at The American Express on Thursday in La Quinta, Calif.

Thompson, a 23-year-old University of Georgia product, eagled a pair of par-5 holes at La Quinta Country Club, Nos. 5 and 6, to leave him 7 under par through six holes. He finished at 10-under 62 for a two-stroke lead over five players.

Thompson made a 12-foot putt at No. 5, then knocked in a 60-foot chip shot at No. 6 for his eagles. He became the first player to notch back-to-back eagles since Ireland’s Shane Lowry did so at last year’s Open Championship.

GYM: Georgia Hosts Kentucky Tonight

Friday, January 20 | 7:00 p.m.

Stegeman Coliseum | Athens, Ga.  

Watch: SEC Network +

The University of Georgia gymnastics team faces Kentucky on Friday, January 20 at 7 p.m. in Stegeman Coliseum for the team’s first Southeastern Conference match-up at home this season. 

The GymDogs hold a 89-4-1 record against the Wildcats.  The teams met three times during the 2022 season with Kentucky outscoring Georgia in all three meets.

FULL OF DEPTH

The 2023 GymDogs have the most depth of any team during the Kupets Carter era. At the annual First Look, Georgia had seven gymnasts on vault, 11 on bars, 10 on beam, and 11 on floor with the potential for more.  After three meets this season, 12 different GymDogs have earned a spot in the lineup.
