I hope Phil pulls through. I can see BK doing his thing though, too. Additionally, someone could go out there and post a number before the leaders and give them something to stare at down the stretch. Should be a good finish tomorrow.

Koepka was atrocious  putting. Wide open tomorrow. -1 or 2 could  win.

As could -3 or -4 or -5 or -6 or -7 or -8 or -9 or -10. What difference does it make? The field hasn't been brought into it due to Koepka's "atrocious"putting.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

He should get a lengthy suspension. Wind  is down and  its going to be  a birdie  fest  on an easy  course.

I agree with the first part.

Do you have to be drunk to shout "Get in the hole!"?  Or just kinda stupid?

That happens so frequently at so many tournaments that I'm beginning to think the PGA pays a few of them guys to travel around and yell that out...

Speith was missing a lot of putts today, expecting them to naturally fall into the hole. Is it me or does he seem a bit _______ when he misses. Fill in the blank if you would like.

Yeah he seemed a little bit pissed. 
 

Which leads me to this question? Aside from the top-four, who from a little further back could sneak in and post a number and steal this PGA?

My two picks: Watch Bryson... if he keeps it out of the shit. Or Jordan if he can putt.

It’ll be a long day tomorrow for Phil. To bad about those dropped shots coming in.

Absolutely, but I think 1 tournament is enough. Wallace’s caddy cold shouldered him on the 18th. I would have called Van Rooyen out then and there if I was caddying.

Looks  like they caved to the  players  complaints about  playing a challenging  course and turned  it  into putt putt.

Same dumb schtick since joining.

There has been worse scores in majors, but leading with -7 after three days does not indicate putt-putt.

I like tournaments with eagles, birdies and bogies, and a winning score around -10 is a nice score. -20 is too much and even par too tough. Never know with the wind on a course like this of course, which can move the scores in both directions.

As of this writing, there are 12 guys under par on a windy, championship level course, and the leading score is just -7. Yeah, sounds like “putt putt.” 🤦‍♂️

The last 4 holes are the four hardest on the course. One round of -3 is the best so far. Hardly low scoring

I’ve just sat down to watch the last round and the course looks a fair bit drier and firmer than the early rounds. 
I had forgotten how interesting a track the Ocean course is. Played it on Toptracer at the range yesterday. I think the tee shots would be very intimidating in real life.

For anyone else experiencing this, I was able to load a stream via the CBS Sports app on my phone.  Hopefully that lasts for the tournament today :-)

      Playing With Irons

      By iacas ·

      Playing irons only may lead to some short-term gains, but you'll want to at least practice with the driver if you ultimately have some decently good goals.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      He plays from 68.3 / 124.  A combo tee setup of normal mens and seniors.   I play from 69.7/127.   He left after taking a triple on 14 and then leaving.  Which plays to what I think his plan is,   He doesn’t stroke on 14 but would have to take bogey for non completed holes on the way in.   Maybe that’s giving him too much credit, but he found a way to add 4 shots to his score over three holes so….     I looked up his last 20 rounds in GHIN and he has a lot of rounds at easier courses (rating and slope) that are higher than his normal rounds at home.   Since I mostly have his front nine score during the match (36) to go on, he has three nine hole scores at our course posted that are 41-43. I wrote the whole thing up to the head of our golf association who runs all the tournaments.  Our pro is not involved officially in the tournaments because the golf associations are separate from the club.   He’s pretty well known for this, however I was pretty shocked at how well he played carrying a 15.   I think eventually they will do something, a lot of people have complained.  The golf association threw someone out a couple of years ago and it was a three month situation where the guy retaliated.  They probably are hesitant to go thru anything like that again.  That is a rather crazy story I might post about later.
