Takumi Kanaya's Debut round as a professional was a clod rainy day.
"I knew about the rain forecast so I was prepared for it", said Takumi, but he did suffer some difficulties on the tough course.

His first round score as a Pro was 2 over Par. He did make his first birdie as a Pro on 3rd Hole but made double bogey on next 4th hole. His 2nd shot got buried at the bank of the bunker. Then he went on to 3 putt for a bogey on 5th.

He came to the course by bus among his fellow college mates. He didn't seem to have any pressure on his expression before his first professional round.
"I hope I could hit it straight as always", was the words he quoted before the round. He already has won on the professional tournament as an amateur so, it might be nothing so new to him.

He did stumble on his way down the front nine by reaching to 4 over Par at one moment, but he did keep his patience and bounced back on last 2 holes.

"My 2nd shot on the 18th was straight on to the target. If I could hit like that tomorrow, I will be still in contention."
As Takumi stated his 2nd shot from 265 yards by 3W was straight on to the pin and got himself with an eagle chance. He couldn't make it but finished with back-to-back birdie for the round.

"I had few misses on my putting so I want to adjust it. I will try to keep the fairways tomorrow and aim to gain birdie chances. I will go for making 3 to 4 under Par tomorrow."
