mikeintopeka There are some really low numbers being turned in by the players that went out early...-8, -6, -5. If the leaders play a little tight and/or lose the mojo in their putting stroke, it might be 'game on"

Could be but even a -5 from one of the Cam's gets them to 17 under. meaning both Rory and Hovland would have to shoot a mere -1 in these pretty benign conditions. It would be a pretty big choke to do worse than that. If one of the cam's or Scheffler shoots -8 under then yea it could be interesting but that's a pretty big ask.

    Leaders on auto pilot so far.....it's definitely there for the taking if any of the chasers get hot!

      ode. It would be nice if somebody did throw a number up there just so those two have something else to think about besides just each other

        garyt1957 I don't think you're going to miss much by not being able to watch. Like 1 of those 'thriller movies' where the bad guy is just outside, but can't find a way in, and movie is over before you realize it. Even if someone comes sniffing, the last 4 holes will do them in. No one's hitting bad shots yet, and likely that pattern will continue. Winner will be from top 4 at present.

        Sorry, in advance, for the spoiler. 😉

            Par4QC. Oh for sure I expect top 4, like I said earlier I think it's match play. If the weather was bad it would be another story. But nobody should be backing up in these conditions

                garyt1957 The way everyone is playing, in cruise control, looks like maybe just the top 1 will win. 1/2 way home, and I don't see it getting harder for anyone.
                Viktor can't seem to get within 80' of the hole, so Rory doesn't have to either. But he is.

                    Rory better start making those easy birdie putts or he's gonna choke this up...

                    garyt1957 Clutch putt by Smith, might have won him the tourney

                    It did.
                    Putting, yet again, does Rory in.

                        Spuzz Putting, yet again, does Rory in.

                        Not sure.... 36 putts, but it seems like he wasn't dialed in/agressive enough with this irons into the greens to get it closer. JMO

                            Helluva tournament for Cam Smith. He went out and took it today. Well done.

                            Holland choked, I wouldn't say Rory choked but he didn't rise to the occasion. Cam Smith was superb

                            Eguller he wasn't dialed in

                            Agree.
                            No real blunders but he did miss putts that others were making, and he was in the bottom 1/4 of scores today, and the worse score in the Top 15 (aside from Hovland) on a easy playing course today.

                                Spuzz

                                Your point is well taken with hitting 18 greens but soooooo many putts. He had to be defensive more than not.
                                The point came when he knew he had to shoot at more pins, etc but he didn't. With these sharks, he had to.
