Hard to argue with player complaints about that break.  Sheesh.

Is this gorgeous or what?  Tee shot on 14. It's a 280 yard carry to hit the fairway just to the left of the bunker in the fairway.  Jason Day went right of the bunker for the "safe" play, but the commentators said he could've saved a lot of distance by going to the left of the bunker. What a view though.

That is nice. And a true Cape hold to boot.

For all the talk about how tough this course was going to be, a lot of guys don't seem too troubled by it. Winning score may be a lot more under par than we thought. I think it'll toughen out over the weekend, but I still think a few strokes under par winning is looking good.

It won't even take until the weekend to toughen up, IMO.  Jordan Spieth will be the leader at days end at -6 or -7 so.  (That's my bold prediction) ;)

And the scores will get worse from there is my guess.  Final winning score won't be better than -6 (my other bold prediction) :-P

I think there'll be some separation. I think you'll see some guys hang around -7 or -6 and then scores start to detiorate from there by tomorrow afternoon. But I think the rain last night is really making this course vulnerable today. These guys are making birdies. Spieth is looking amazing right now and is going to be tough to beat.

If Spieth wins this, I am sure the talk of "Grand Slam" will get louder in July.

Of course it will.

Especially since he would have just won on a links style course.

Tiger has picked up four spots in four holes. Now he just needs to continue that trend for eighty more holes and he'll be in position to make the cut.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
