Etowah Open

Calvert, Cole, Honda share lead after opening round of Etowah Open

GLENCOE – Defending champion Chad Calvert, Ty Cole and Steve Honda are tied for the lead in the Etowah Open after shooting 2-under-par 69 Saturday at the Links at Briarmeade.

They lead by one over Tee Brown and Randy Lipscomb.

Calvert could have gone really low, but missed seven birdies inside seven feet. He was the third low amateur last week in the Calhoun County Golf Tour’s Fort McClellan Credit Union Pro-Invitational with rounds of 72, 67, 75.

“Nothing exciting to talk about,” he said after Saturday’s round, “but it feels good to be back in contention again.”
