Billy Haas is sweating already?! He hasn't even started.

It gets humid in the midwest. Walk out, boom, sweating in 2 seconds.

What's with them moving the tee up on 4? Aren't there enough birdie opportunities out there? I wonder if they really do want to see the first ever 62 in a major. It's definitely out there for the taking. If Rory has his A-game today, he could torch this place.

Yeah i've noticed that. Shitload of commercials and lots of inside stuff like Faldo's tour thing. Lots of practice range shots. Too much. EDIT:God damn man. "Heres Nick Faldo's tour of the hole". "Now heres Westwoods tee shot" "time for commercial"

Perfect teeshot from Luiten at 3rd. Needs it after bogey the first.

Television, they showed his teeshot. We have the USA feed but pretty much without commercials.

Westwood drives to three feet at the fourth. Stone-cold eagle.

The more I practise, the luckier I hope to get.

And Luiten birdies the 3rd (This I had to hear from the Dutch commentators)

    • They sure do. 158 with an 8 iron is on the high end for me
    • Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.  
    • Distances look fine, no?
    • Day 207-12 Wider backswing and arm reconnecting in downswing. Did a much better job with proper wrist movements through downswing today.
    • Trackman place today. I broke my tripod so could only film by hand the video the venue’s cameras generated. This is an 8 iron. Amazing how odd this feels relative to how it looks. Not similar!
