Dahmen lamented the error after the first round on Thursday, which puts him in jeopardy of losing full PGA Tour status.
Joel Dahmen shot a round of 72 on Thursday in the opening round of the Shriners Children's Open at TPC Summerlin in Las Vegas, NV.
The round of +1 would have been good for a tie for 107th after Thursday's round. It was not a great day for Dahmen to begin with, as the top 97 and ties shot even par or better on Thursday. Taylor Pendrith shot a -10, 61 to lead the tournament after the first round. To make matters worse for Dahmen, he was penalized four strokes at the conclusion of his round for carrying a 15th club, one above the permitted 14 clubs in the bag for a PGA Tour event. Dahmen accidentally had an extra 4-iron in his bag, so he had to sign for a +5, 76 instead. He sits in 132nd place out of 133 golfers heading into Friday's round, where he'll have to shoot a very low round to make the cut.
