I’ll take McIlroy and Hovland instead!

This is a great leaderboard. Looking forward to the weekend.

Rory and DJ in the same group tomorrow would be something. I wonder how much friendly chatter there would be.

Rory: Hey DJ, how ya holding up with all the controversy?

I am a little peeved that I tuned in early (for me, I'm on Pacific time) and the bulk of the shots I've seen are from Sergio or Bryson.  I have more dislike for those two men now than I did six months ago.    

I am not enjoying how well Bryson is playing today.  Good for him, 16/16 GIR.  Please put a few in the hotel pool on the next tee.

I did enjoy watching Garcia take three to get out of a greenside bunker on the fifth hole. 

Bryson's second consecutive three putt is nice too (although the previous one was really an off-green shot with a putter for the first).

Edit I stand corrected, Bryson four-putted on 16.

Seventeen is really a fun hole to watch. Very much enjoying this. 42% GIR for the tournament so far.

McIlroy and Hovland four ahead before Sunday? I wouldn’t dare to dream of it. More than makes up for Tiger’s +9. They played really well today, almost without bigger errors. Hovland had quite a few 3-6 footers for par, but drained them all.

Fun to watch, looking forward to the final round. Nice to have it on DVR, where you can skip through the long coverage. Rory's sand hole-out was great, but do we really have to see it replayed six times?


Good morning!  I'll be watching on various TVs throughout the morning.  

Highlight of the round so far are Xander's four birdies and Varner demonstrating why he's the second best dunker of anyone who wears the same logo he does.  Nearly made a 2 on a par 5 in a major.

Pretty disappointed by the yt coverage. The range streams are great but highlights are absolutely abysmal.


TaylorMade just aired a commercial about Morikawa and DJ trespassing into a golf course.  Well, that was the plot of the commercial, I'm sure the two didn't actually trespass to film it.

He made a putt one of these days that they replayed 8-10 times from various angles within several minutes after it had happened. It wasn’t incredibly long, but he had a gallery behind him that roared, so they got some good shots.

Soft course and low scores today, so the winner will probably have to make some birdies out there.

Yeah, they were saying that on NBC's broadcast.  Good thing for Rory and Viktor they had a nice lead going into today bc they've been playing pretty standard early.

And just as I type that, Viktor hiccups on the 4th.

Rory just hit a great 50 yard putt on #6.  This is a lot better than a 50 yard putt I once hit.  The tenth hole at Hansen Dam has a very elevated green.  The pin was on the front and my birdie attempt was coming from the back of the green.  I hit the putt more than a tad too hard.  It rolled up to the cup, past the cup, onto the collar, to the fairway, and down the hill.  I went from having a birdie putt to having a 45 yard pitch on my par attempt.

Interesting decision by Rory to putt there on 6

When the ball ended up in the walk area. I thought there would no chance to have an easy pitch shot. Putting was the first option that came to mind for me.

The leaders has needed that lead so far, but there are lots of holes left for the chasing players. Lots of holes for the Camerons to make a bogey or three too of course.

A birdie or two for Rory and Viktor to get things going would be nice.

Young seems like a cool cookie, and long hitter. Incredible rookie year so far. A potential major winner and top player right there.

    • I agree with this 100%. I forget what tour player said it but they mentioned how in pro ams they hear amateurs say how they always make a majority of their mid range putts. His reply was no they don’t because if you did you’d be better than everyone on tour. Even pros think they’re better than they are. Back when stats weren’t as well known as today they asked a bunch of pros what the make percentage was on tour for 6 footers. The consensus was around 70%. Crenshaw was the closest with a guess of 50%. Actual percentage was 54%. I always thought it was interesting that one of the best putters was the closest. 
    • Day 145 - 2025-02-22 7-7 today at Golf Evolution. Managed to sneak in some work while waiting for dinner when I got home, though.
    • Day 15: 2/22/25 Putting through50 mm gates weight shift drills. Playing tomorrow, and will see how I do.
    • This is a good point and I’m going to go down this road. I’ll get some data on both techniques, compare the two, and then make a more informed decision. I’m bad about going off of what I “feel” is the best but should definitely approach it with more hard data.  All that being said, this made me laugh and is likely the cause of me wondering if the broomstick would be a better technique. I mean, who doesn’t want to get a new putter?
    • Day 32 (22 Feb 25) - Got in some wedge work with the 58° in the backyard before heading to a noon band rehearsal.  It’s the weakest part of my wedge game, so figured it would be good to work on distance control for a few minutes - varied the distances and lies from 5yds out to about 25yds.  Nice little drill session to kick off the day.
