If the pins are pretty easy, they'll murder this course.

NoLayingUp said Fleetwood shot a stress free 60 yesterday (obviously the easiest pins for a pro-am and not fully tournament length) but sheesh.

Phil is in last alone.

He's 3 over after 27 holes, lol. These guys are pretty good.

Xander Schauffele trying to force Furyk's hand. Finau really stepped it up though so it might not be enough but interesting that Xander had more Ryder cup points.

I don't think it's enough. Even if he wins, Finau's season results and stats (especially strokes gained stats) are just way better than Xander's this year. He just got kinda unlucky to never put it together for a win this year.

Course is a joke today. Probably see someone at -20 after today ends.

I've played there probably 30 times and it blows my mind how they are destroying this course. Yes, there are wide fairways and not a lot of trouble, but it is still a difficult course.

I rank it 3rd in the area behind Merion and Cricket (have never played PV). It's nowhere near as good as either of those. From a straight golf perspective, Cricket is the best course in this area.
I know what you're asking yourself and the answer is yes. I have a nick name for my penis. Its called the Octagon, but I also nick named my testes - my left one is James Westfall and my right one is Doctor Kenneth Noisewater.

As you may have guessed, they are not playing golf right now. Earliest start would be 2 PM, though I wouldn't bet on that.

Would they play Monday, or call it after 54 holes?
(Brandy) only hinted at Halladay's personal issues during her Hall of Fame speech last July, when she said, "Roy would want everyone to know that people are not perfect. We're all imperfect and flawed in one way or another. We all struggle."

I think they said they plan to get all 72 in so I think Monday is definite.

So if they don't at least have half the field finished by tomorrow night they are calling it for Rose?

Getting there. Early starters are through 13. Woods is 3 under through 8 and two off the lead.

Now one back with a birdie on 9. He has been killing the front 9 this week.

Bogey on 10 but a bounce back birdie on 11.

Probably has to go -4 on the last 6 holes to have a shot.
