Not surprising, but probably a good choice.

Also, how ridiculous is lydia ko? 19 years old, won 14 of her first 81 events.

(Tiger won 21/81). I can't wait until he's healthy again.

Se Ri Pak combined with the fact that I think the culture is totally fine with putting all of your eggs in one basket so a lot of people do this with their daughters for golf. We just see the ones that make it out.

Men not so much because they have a mandatory 2 year service (missin u sang-moon bae).

Ko was raised in New Zealand though.

He just couldn't putt today. Weird year for him. Ton of top 5/10s and only the Irish Open win.

No one doing anything this afternoon...and don't think we're going to see play tomorrow until the afternoon. Of course I'm going tomorrow :(

Day, Fowler, Walker, Kaymer, and Stenson all within 3 strokes of the lead. Many others of somewhat less note sprinkled in.

Rory birdies 17 to sneak below cut line, then bogies 18 to fall back out.

Jimmy Walker tied for lead.

Rain starting to come down a little harder now. Who knows how it'll play out. Hopefully they finish the 3rd before any thunderstorms come.

Guess I lucked out on Friday...it was warm/humid but that's way better than this shit.

Duf's is more of a butt pat and grope. Walker's was definitely a smack.

Great drama when Day Eagled the 18th, and Walker lipped in the birdie putt on 17 about 30 seconds later.

Nike will no longer be in the golf equipment business and their revenue took a big hit this year with Tiger being away from the game.

It will be interesting to see what Tiger and Rory do. Wouldn't be surprised to see PXG garner some interest...
