Just saw Luiten hit the flagstick for a hole in one earlier today. That would be something.... -1 at this point so that's good.

Right now I'm amazed by the struggles of Dustin Jonhson and Jordan Spieth. Hopefully they'll recover.

Weather is really turning now. Not hot at all really, very comfortable. Also 25-30 mph winds. Good thing I'm not golfing.

Not that he was playing at all well prior to the 18th, but DJs gone to pieces here. Quite sad to see as I was hoping we'd get to watch him slug it out with some of the other 'big guns' over the weekend.

I would not say Spieth is struggling like Johnson is, for now anyway.

DJ is prolly running on fumes right now. He looks fatigued. He won the US Open in June, the WGC in July, played the Open in Scotland two weeks ago, traveled overseas and played in Canada last week and now is playing the PGA this week. That's a lot of gol, and when you're winning and contending every week, it adds to more mental fatigue. And he's contended every week the last few months with the exception of the Open where he still made the cut.

So my guess is DJ is in need of a nap. And same could for a lot of these guys you see struggling. This has been a big stretch the last couple months. It's unusual to be playing the PGA this week so soon.

Weather not looking good for Friday. Raining there hard right now and lots behind it. Will be interesting to see how much, if any, golf they get in.

Saw that Willett blamed the draw on Twitter.. Sounds a bit like an excuse IMO, Stenson shot -3 in the afternoon..

It's not like it suddenly went to a gale wind or something like that..

Well read into it a bit more and I guess it was more windy in the afternoon and Danny's comment was towards another tweet.. Anyways I hope he does well today

What's with the subversive angle? Does some evil pervade?

I wonder if Bryson is jealous at all the attention Beef is getting.
