After 18 holes the former Red Storm standout is three-under par, which places him at T-30 and four strokes off the lead.
There are 20 players who are three-under par, including Bradley, most notably defending champion Patrick Reed, World No. 1 Justin Thomas, and Tiger Woods.
Things didn’t get off to a great start for Bradley following his par at No. 1, he bogeyed No. 2 but responded with birdies at No. 3 and No. 4.
Now sitting a one-under, Bradley carded a par at No. 5 and a bogey at No. 6 to bring him back down to even for the tournament, but that would be the last bogey of the afternoon for the St. John’s Hall of Famer and it would be consistent pars until he reached No. 16.
