Been practicing with just my 8 iron at the range this week and noticed I'm taking deep divots. Not like trenches but deeper than a small scrape. Would this cause my shaft to potentially snap? It's new clubs I've had for a week and never had a brand new set before.

You shouldn't worry about the shafts breaking. Plenty of have folks out there have been abusing their clubs for  10, 20, 30 years without having to reshaft their irons. If shaft does break prematurely its because it was installed improperly. Only steel shaft I've actually split in the middle was one of those cheapo Apollo steel shafts.

      Three great shots from McIlroy's group (Smith and the US Am Champ) on 12.  The amateur won closest to the pin, although I doubt the group had a bet going.

      I thought complaining about Fleetwood's appearance was my schtick   For real though, I agree with you, and when I see that, especially in a major, I'm confused.  When I play in a multi-day event at my club, I plan my clothing in advance because I want to look my best.   If no one else, their clothing sponsors should do this for them.  I think Nike used to do this with their stable -- I used to look forward to seeing their posts on the Facebook before majors to see how Tiger and Anthony Kim and friends would be dressed. Meanwhile, Jason Day is dressed fairly blandly today.  Who saw that coming?

      The hell is Thomas Fleetwood wearing? He looks like a divorced dad from 1998. Even the shoes are hideous

      I was wondering this and haven't seen it on today's broadcast OR yesterday's, but apparently Cabrera did show up.  He currently has the third highest score for the week and is playing his last hole of this year's event.  I'm not particularly keen to see him, but I was wondering if he was present, and he seems to be.

      Hatton hit 18 GIR.  That's incredible.   Rory's tee shot on #8 reminds me of a TV show, Get Smart, that I enjoyed watching as a kid.  The protagonist would often say "missed me by that much."  Rory missed avoiding the bunker by that much.
