Former St. John’s golf star Keegan Bradley had a strong finish to the Workday Charity Open after struggling on moving day.

The third day of a golf tournament is always one of the most important, typically referred to as “moving day.”

However, for former St. John’s golf star Keegan Bradley he didn’t do much moving in the right direction on Saturday afternoon.

Following his first two rounds at the Workday Charity Open in Dublin, Ohio, Bradley sat at four-under par but ended his Second Round on a sour note with a bogey on the challenging 18th hole.

However, still with a chance to move up the leaderboard Bradley stumbled all day at Muirfield Village Golf Club ending his Third Round with a two-over, 74, to place him at two-under entering the final round and no chance to catch the leaders.

Because of potential weather coming through the area in the afternoon, the PGA Tour moved up the tee time on Sunday and set groups off in three players on both the First and Tenth Holes.

Bradley, who started on No. 10 on Sunday got off to a hot start with two birdies in the first five holes but then struggled with the course on the following holes and ended his round with a two-under, 70.

The total score of four-under for the tournament placed Keegan Bradley at T-39 along with Patrick Reed, Pat Perez, Austin Cook, Adam Schenk, and Matt Wallace.

Last week the former Red Storm star posted a score of ten-under at the Rocket Mortgage Classic in Detroit but that score was only good enough to place him T-45.

Keegan Bradley will remain at Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio as the Memorial Tournament will be played at the same course designed by Jack Nicklaus starting on Thursday.
