How do you "slam the trunk" of your 155 foot dinghy? 😜

Greens too soft and scoring getting better. Tiger not going to make the weekend. In fact USGA just moved up their likely cut like to +8 now.

At this point, right on the cut line, what difference does it make? He's scarcely someone who needs to feel the experience of a weekend at a major.

Ryder Cup points? He's surely a cinch for a Captain's pick?

Enjoy the boat ride back to Florida, Tiger.

Big bizness

You're kidding aren't you???? This place is Tiger's main fan club, there's even pictures of him in the executive washroom.

A higher percentage of your posts are about Tiger (the GOAT) than almost anyone else’s. Except @Gerald Ladig.

that’s because he’s got a shrine of Tiger in his parent’s basement where he lives. 😜

It looks like Poulter and Rose are feeding off one another.

Rose is usually very steady. I think DJ should worry about him.

Agree.  I was somewhat expecting more of a move by one or two players given the favorable conditions, but it's as though the course has a governor on the throttle.

If Fox does something like Revolutionary War 2.0, I'm gonna puke.

Same here, that name is reserved for the War of 1812.

Great to see nice approaches by Phil and Jordan.  They might yet play tomorrow (Phil currently within projected cut anyway).

BTW, doesn't seem to be a visual for projected cut TV.  Had to go online to find it.

Go Poulter!

[ChrisP]

Not many golfers, if any, I hate more than Ian Poulter. The guy is a prick.

This putt for Rickie is 6'4.  That's one Dustin Johnson.

Jordan's woes now extend beyond the putter. 

Michael Greller must be logged onto TST and shared my post .

Go Ian on 8!!!

[DeadMan]

Outside shot for Poulter to make an 8 on number 8. 

Holes like that are also why this tournament is far from over, even with DJ well ahead of the field right now. 7s are fairly common on this course, and that would bring DJ back pretty quickly.

The Mickelson, Speith, McIlroy group are definitely feeding off one another.  They're exposing a wee crack in the course defense system.

No wind. Soft greens. I’m surprised scores aren’t lower. USGA watered the course last night because they felt bad for the guys. Hopefully they just roll them tonight and let them speed up tomorrow.
