Byeong Hun An takes a dig at the Genesis Invitational course after a 'trouble' filled day

Byeong Hun An took a dig at the Genesis Invitational course after a troubled day. The event is taking place at Torrey Pines South Course, which gave a tough time to the golfer. As a result, he talked about it with his caddie and shared a photo of their chat on social media.

In the conversation, Hun An’s caddie asked him to bring the scuba gear and in reply, the golfer asked whether the course was flooding. Following that, his caddie said:

“No man. We are going deep today.”

The screenshot of the chat was shared by Byeong Hun An on X with a caption:

“Casual pre-round text between me and my caddie.”

Byeong Hun An couldn't make it through the cutline of the Genesis Invitational tournament. His total score after two rounds was 10-over and in the first round, he shot 75 with two birdies on the front nine, parring the 18th hole. In the second round, he shot 79 with no birdies on the front nine and one on the 13th hole of the back nine.
