As of HIGH NOON and 10 minutes

Leader: 2-under (until he tees off and has a reality check)
Top 60 and ties: 15-way tie for 48th at 5-over
10-shot rule: 89 players at 8-over-or-better.

Thanx-A-Lot, Frank-0-Sport

Frank -

When I first turned on ESPN and heard Berman (I didn't recognize it was Berman until all of the talking heads showed up on the TV) I almost gagged. Although I like Berman for some things, I thought he was dreadful doing golf.

But, no matter how bad it is, it could always get worse; for example, it could have been Billy Packer !!!!

I'd be so happy if Bubba Watson was in the top ten heading into Saturday. I'd make things a ton of fun to watch because I'm Bubba's number 1 fan.

You guys are right on about Berman and his golf coverage. I think he's great on NFL Sunday Countdown, but golf? Not his best fit in my opinion.

Here's to hoping Angel Cabrera throws out a few bogeys on the way in, BIG difference in the cut from -1 to +1 for the leader.

Seems to be a helluva struggle out there today, good players struggling everywhere.

Watch out for Toms!!! Solid golfer.

Watched the entire 2nd round today, wow that's a lot of tv haha. pretty good stuff so far, those greens are like hardwood floors.

ps. Excuse my ignorance, but can someone explain to me why Adam Scott putt the ball with the toe of his putter from the fringe? Why didn't he just putt the ball normally? (1st round coverage).

A tip of the hat to Paul Casey..what an incredible round!

Cabrera and Watson are playing very good...

Too bad about my pick Ernie Els...at least he made the cut.

Others I thought who would be in the thick of it like Furyk really faded back in the pack today. It will be hard to get back in contention Saturday and Sunday.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By billchao ·

      Best drive I've ever hit: I will not be answering any questions about the rest of the hole. Or the round, for that matter.

      7 Wood

      By trombettista_vecchio ·

      I tried hybrids way back when TaylorMade introduced the copper orange Firesole Rescue, the clubhead having been made of titanium which was still relatively new even in drivers back then. I couldn't hit it well at all, and while the success of hybrids suggests that the modern ones must be quite good,  I'm perfectly happy with the 5, 7, and 9-woods.  Early ones of mine were Top Flite Intimidator 400s made by Spalding... and also made of titanium, now that I think of it.  I still have them in my basement. I do bag a driving iron, but it's a one-trick-pony that never sees fairway use.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By trombettista_vecchio ·

      The last time I played Maxfli balls, Dunlop was still making them. How long ago was that? Mostly, though, I used to play Top Flites (original 336 dimple model) when Spalding was still making them. Now I play the Pro V1x. Last time that I ordered some, Titleist was still making them. Let's see how long that lasts.

      My Favorite Putts

      By trombettista_vecchio ·

      Once, on a course in Middleton, Massachusetts that I used to love but has since closed down,  I hit the wrong half of a huge, UK style double green.  Then I made the hundred foot putt.  Tough to  forget that one.

      Are you a Better Golfer than a Year Ago?

      By trombettista_vecchio ·

      No. But if I can still play next year, I'll almost certainly be even worse. That's the reality of not being young.🙁
