I do hope Tom's stamina will keep up through the weekend. It's fun to have him in contention, and he's playing brilliantly today.

When the sun emerges above the English Channel next Sunday morning, it will appear to be shining the brightest over the British Isles, as Britons and Irishmen will constitute the majority of the names

Something going on between Gmac and Paula Creamer? She wished him luck on twitter a while ago. She wished no one else luck

I'm predicting a large number for Phil, and a small one for Fowler (even par through half-a-dozen holes, seems to be handling the weather very well).

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

Yikes, it's been a massacre out there today. So much for that wide-open field; if Clarke or some other player can do something this afternoon, he'd have a huge lead to sit on tonight.

In my UnderArmour Links stand bag...

Driver: '07 Burner 9.5° (stiff graphite shaft)
Woods: SasQuatch 17° 4-Wood (stiff graphite shaft)
Hybrid: 4DX Ironwood 20° (stiff graphite shaft)Irons/Wedges: Apex Edge 3-PW, GW, SW (stiff shaft); Carnoustie 60° LWPutter: Rossa AGSI+ Corzina...

It's too bad when we get such big differences in weather through the day. It really makes the competition unfair.

I'd love to see either Johnson or Clarke win this. Johnson because of the near misses he has had, and Clarke because of all the hardships he's endured. Besides I'd like to see Darren on the Ryder Cup team next year

Driver: Taylormade R11 set to 8*
3 Wood: R9 15* Motore Stiff
Hybrid: 19° 909 H Voodoo
Irons: 4-PW AP2 Project X 5.5

After Johnson's debacles at last year's US Open and PGA, it would be fitting for his first major to be the British. I know, jinx.

Fowler's the leader in the clubhouse - you go girl!!!

The trainwreck is over, but no one left on the course, save Rickie and DJ, is able to do more than grind out pars. The tournament is there for the taking right now, but the guys at the top are terrified to risk losing position. When will these guys start showing more courage and urgency out there?

Ryder Cup qualifying doesn't start 'till the European Masters in Switzerland.

(That's not to say he won't get a pick)

Kudos to Anthony Kim - from me anyway (had him picked to MC).

And how: there are have been only two rounds under par today (three if Clarke stays where he is), but Kim is the only person to finish even on the day. This result should give him a much-needed confidence boost.

I'm saying either Clarke or Johnson will win now. They will both battle all day tomorrow. I think Fowler will also be in the mix, and maybe Kaymer.

It's set up for a very interesting final day. Anybody in the top 5 winning would be considered a 'great story'. Especially Clarke with all he has been through.

He can thank Gmac for setting him up on a blind date with his new fiancee Alison Campbell and making him a happy man again

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By StuM · Posted

      The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I saw this comment made in a golf article... "Most golfers stand over a 4- or 5-iron still negotiating with themselves. They think about how hard to swing, whether they have the right club, if they have the aim correct and more. It’s a lot to deal with and long irons punish the “half-in” golf swing." I am not sure the "most golfers" is correct regarding the bolded part. I can understand if there is a bunker, water, and/or OB that a lot of golfers would be fixated on that. I am not sure that leads to ending up more times there. Pending your level in golf, the variance is so large in outcomes, it could be just with in the expected outcomes. I can understand if have a big lake on the right side of the hole being one of the most terrifying shots for right-handed amateur golfers.  I am not sure many golfers are standing over the ball talking to themselves, "Ok, maybe I should step back and pull the 4-iron. Am I lined up right? Oh, the wind came up, should I swing harder? What am I going to have for dinner tonight, maybe steak. (Joking, somewhat 😛)" A question is that how much chatter do you get while standing over the ball. Are you questioning the everything about your golf shot?
