Is this a photo of Ben actually swinging? Or is he demonstrating/practicing a drill? The position he is in, in this photo, appears different from many of the other shots of him at this stage in his swing. Also, he appears to have a club on the ground behind his right foot with 2 balls lined up along the shaft. Did he just drop it there or is he using it as a reference point of some kind?

I'm guessing, but it appears to be nothing than Hogan demonstrating what he thinks a slicer does: weight back and leaving the face open. The club on the ground behind him seems to have been dropped there randomly.

      Oh great, now that the door opened last year, he thinks he owns the place and waltz in for another jacket anytime he wants. Kids these days. Such entitlement. 😜

      I agree; that would be great.  The record is 20 under;  if we only include Masters Tournaments contested in April, then the record is 18 under.  Seeing Rory beat 20 under would be fantastic.

      Now I am hoping Rory breaks the all time scoring record, especially with how difficult the course is playing right now.

      A few thoughts on the past few minutes. I agree that fairways are overrated, but Rory might want to reconsider that view in the short term. For the second time today, Bryson is hitting two shots in a row from the same greenside bunker.   Xander had a similar issue on 12 earlier today, although I think that only happened to him once today.  My mother and I are sitting in my living room commiserating.    Poor Patrick Reed, only bogey of the day on #18.  Shane Lowry had a clean scorecard with 15 pars and 3 birdies.
