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 :-)

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
