TROON, Scotland -- French golfer Clement Sordet woke up at 4 a.m. on Friday to text messages asking if he was safe following the tragedy in his hometown of Nice.In fact, Sordet was on the west coast of Scotland for the British Open at Royal Troon, but his girlfriend, Marie, and her family were in Nice and celebrating Bastille Day when a truck plowed through revelers gathered along the Riviera citys waterfront promenade. At least 84 people were killed.Sordet said the tragedy happened about 500 meters from where he lives.Its a really sad situation, the 23-year-old Sordet said. I give my thoughts to all the families and to the people who died.He said his girlfriend, her family and his friends are safe.Sordet used a blue marker to write the words Pray For Nice on his cap for his second round. He was in the first group out for the second round at 6:35 a.m., and shot 4-over 75.I tried not to think about, thats why I had this on my hat, Sordet said, pointing to the side of his cap. I just tried to enjoy the last day at the Open.Sordet was born in Charbonnieres-les-Bains, near Lyon. He moved to Nice, where his girlfriend is from. He wont be back there for another two weeks because he is about to play in back-to-back tournaments.Sordet said he wouldnt be nervous going back to France. The attack in Nice has rocked a nation still dealing with the aftermath of two attacks in Paris last year that killed a total of 147 people.Im really proud to be French, he said. We need to support each other.Victor Dubuisson, who was born in Cannes, a city just down the coast from Nice in southeastern France, is the other French golfer in the British Open field.
