I thought live tv link needs your cable subscription account, but it works for me and I didn't input any account info, maybe a bug?

Mine worked for a few minutes before asking for that information.  It's common on NBC streams now that I think about it.  Their SNF streams used to work for exactly 30 minutes before prompting.

Ah, maybe it won't for the featured holes?

Beautiful par by Jordan on #10.  Well... shot 4 was beautiful at least.

Weather delay now. Booo. @Shindig that was perfect touch by Spieth on 10. The short games these guys have amaze me. Almost always spot on. So cool to watch.

There's an opening for these guys starting the back 9 to get some birdies. Wind is lightest it has been in two days and greens are super soft. So I expect a few birdies on the back 9 for Spieth, Koepka and Matsuyama.

Theres just something about Poulter I hate. I cannot root for him. Hoping he doesn't win.

Spieth has a real chance here to serparate a bit from field. Wind non-existent and two par-5s coming up and he's putting better than ever. Conditions tomorrow supposed to be perfect as well.

Nice par for Jordan on the other par-5.  Wayward tee shot and saved par.

Chances are he'll have a Monty Moment tomorrow. Some bystander or photographer will get on Ian's nerves and next thing he'll be in the rough and whining.

If it's like a certain other time, he'll curse out the wrong photographer too.

Did anyone capture the Lego Justin Rose shot?  Unfortunately the first few results on YouTube for "Lego Justin Rose" don't actually contain the lego video.

Yeah nice Lego shot...lol. I'm recording so I'll watch it again. Also, I think Bones is doing a fine job, very natural at it.

Talk about bad shot/great result. He can talk all he wants about how they planned for a poor hit and the consequences were okay, ....blah, blah.  It would have been a bad strike for even me.

Bones is a solid on course guy. NBC now has the top 3 on course commentators in TV in Feherty, Bones and Maltbie. Rolfing good, too. Wish they'd get the US Open back and get the PGA. They do solid job, especially with Tirico joining Hicks and Miller.

This seriously made me laugh....not sure why, but I kinda feel the same way....imo, I don't think he even gets a top 5 finish

This is far from over. Spieth was fairly wild off the tee but got away with it. No guarantee that he will continue to do so.
