RENO, Nev. -- The competing event this week on the PGA TOUR is the Reno-Tahoe Open, where Will MacKenzie birdied the 72nd hole last year for his first win.The birdie put MacKenzie at 20-under 268, one shot shy of a tournament record and a stroke better than Bob Estes.
Only three of the previous seven champions will be in the field this week, including MacKenzie. Some of them -- like two-time winner Vaughn Taylor and Scott Verplank -- will be playing at the Bridgestone Invitational.
Tadd Fujikawa will also be on hand, playing as a professional. Fujikawa, you might recall, became the second-youngest player to make a PGA TOUR cut at the Sony Open in January.
It came just four days after his 16th birthday.
