Hey there, time traveller!

SAN ANTONIO — Paul Goydos made eight birdies before his final drive sailed into a fairway bunker, blemishing what was almost an unmatched start in the Texas Open.
"I mean, you can’t have everything good happen for every moment of your life," Goydos said.
Goydos, who publicly opened up this month about the death of his ex-wife in January and raising his two teenage daughters, shot a 7-under 63 on Thursday at La Cantera Golf Club for a share of the first-round lead with Justin Leonard.
It’s the first time since 1999 that Goydos has opened a tournament with at least a share of the lead.
Teeing off early in the morning, the 44-year-old Goydos had the lead for most of the day until Leonard birdied three of his last four holes in the afternoon.
Leonard is pursuing a record fourth Texas Open championship, and hasn’t been tied for first this early at La Cantera since his first win in 2000.
