Gavin Green on friendship and playing with college roomie Victor Perez in Saudi Rd3

Gavin Green and Victorr Pérez, teammates and roommates, at the University of New Mexico for four years, were excited at getting a chance to play together in the lead pairing. Green said, “This really will be fun and we will catch up a lot, too. Maybe I will pick his brains, too, he has been playing so well.” Soon after his round, Perez, who had his breakthrough win at Dunhill Links last year, said it would be fun play with Green in the lead pairing. A little later his wish was granted. Green added, “We played together so often in college and interestingly we played together in Saudi last year, too.” Last year Perez and Green played the third round together but seven groups ahead of the lead pair. Green ended T-11 and Perez was T-13. Now they are playing for bigger stakes.
