Well, being Canadian and I watched Corey Connors 1st PGA victory last week to get him here, It's great to see he made the cut and is now only 4 shots off the lead. Not likely he's going to win but I guess you just never know. Great to see Day doing well despite his injury. Every time my wife see's me watching golf, the first thing she asks how's Tiger doing so of course hearing he's only one shot off the lead made her day.

Edit: Rory has just made a birdie from Sergio territory on the 13th though. His race feels run, but who knows if he can eagle 15 and then go stupid low tomorrow. Don't see it happening this year though.

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

I hate McIlroy. Picked him in my golf pool and he plays like this. Ugh. Can only pick him in one major (plus Players) and chose him for this and he lets me down. Casey also didn't do me any favors this week. Depending on Tiger and Rahm.

Finau has birdied the first three holes!   One stroke off of the lead!

I know the feeling. I pick him every year, watch almost every shot and just need to stop... Would love to see him get the green jacket, but it always leads to me getting frustrated each year.

Geez, is the course playing this easy? There's birdies all over the place. Pin positions didn't look to be that easy today.

Phil -2 through 3 as well - what score do we reckon will lead tonight? My bet is on -12.

TIGER has just got to birdie the par 5's. Ridiculous. This is moving day, no bs mistakes, no wild drives. Damn it's so hard to watch sometimes.

Wow, just seen Patrick Cantlay's round... Eesh. It's out there - what a day this could be!

Hate seeing Augusta play this easy and give up so many birdies, like this, but the course is pretty wet and guys are sticking these shots. Tomorrow (and maybe Monday) should be interesting with 20+ mph gusts in the forecast.

This better not be one of those days where Tiger makes 16 pars, a birdie and a bogey.

What would they delay because of? Wind or lightning?

I hope Tiger realizes today is not a day for pars. He's gonna get left way behind if he doesn't balls up soon. Geesh. Get the heat on damn it!

Eagle for Finau. Wow. He's got 62 or lower on his mind. You know he's going to tear up the par-5s on the back.

Eagle for Simpson, too. He's in 2nd.

Finau is on a roll, and not on his ankle this time.

Well it was a good run for Tiger. Maybe next year.

Poulter's driver swing is not a thing of grace, but it did the job.

At least it clears up Colin's weekend.

    • Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
    • Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
