Tweet that stuff at him. I think he's writing a story. Maybe he'll quote you.

I'm not on the Twitter...feel free tweet it if want.

I actually think Fleetwood going under the radar a lot today. The guy is going to feel right at home with these conditions. He's not in the last group so the pressure is off of him. And he's been on the leaderboard a lot this year in tournaments so he has experience in Sunday pressure....although today's probably ramped up a bit than your normal BMW Open. 

Of course, if Justin Thomas or Rickie Fowler win, I'll be very happy as I put some Vegas $$$ on both of them pre-tourney (along with Jason Day who dudded on me). So I'm pulling for either one of those two to win.

I agree. No one expects him to win and it is definitely good for him not to be in the final group. He is playing well and hs a great chance. All depends if he believes he belongs there and believes he can win.

Damn airplane noise is really irritating.

Did Patrick Reed pack any extra clothes this week?  Looks the same as yesterday.

I do like the little facts they mention about the playeers tho, they mentioned that Reed has exactly 12 balls in the bag, marks tails sides up w/a 1932(?) quarter, has 6 tees in his pocket and doesn't start reloading them until he breaks all 6.  Reminds me of those "what's in my bag" articles in the magazines.

Honestly, I didn't even notice it until the commentators said something about it.

I think it's the blimp.

They said it's not. They said it's an airplane and they have no control over it.

Oh...my bad, I missed that bit.

Matsuyama with a great birdie putt.

They said he is 180th on the Tour in strokes gained putting.   That's remarkable.  He's top 10 in the world, and about the worst putter on tour.

Thanks to all posting here. On the road and stuck with the website streaming since it won't let me watch the tv coverage through xfinity mobile. No clue why they think I'd want to watch streams of players who aren't in contention.

I see our leaders aren't fond of the first fairway today.  

Fairways are overrated anyway.

Quicky quicky...not a good first swing.

Does anyone know the total feet of putts made by Thomas yesterday?
