    I will not be surprised if this tournament was abandoned in the coming hours. Contact tracing is underway but surely the players in his group along with the scorers, and possibly a lot of players will be tested. This is not unexpected development but worrying at the same time.

    All the players trotting out the same line about it being a case of when they got the first positive, not if. Looks like they will plough ahead.

    They have to play on, if individual players don't want to then they can withdraw from the tournament but if they PGA tour decide to cancel the tournament for this then they're just admitting that they'll have to cancel the PGA tour until a vaccine is found.

    The lads who thought it too unsafe to risk playing in the Olympics, surely won't play on ?

    So Brooks and DJ right in it but De Chambeau has been excellent. His score could be better, he was very close with pace and line on a couple of putts that didn't drop. A lot of them looked in.

    He just doesn't seem to have had much form in the last 6/7 years, I could've sworn he lost his card at some point in recent times too.

    I wish him well, he signed my nephew's hat at the Open a while back, lovely guy.

    A great news story coming out of Florida in the secondary Korn Ferry Tour. Chris Kirk who took a break away from the game last year due to his battle with alcoholism has just won the King and Bear Classic. A birdie at the last gave him a winning total of 26 under, one ahead of Justin Lower. Fair dues to him. Huge respect for his honesty and been so open about his issues. A few tears will be shed with the Kirk family for sure.

    Cracking stuff from Hatton, that's 16 birdies in his last 44 holes and without a bogey.

    Free Palestine 🇵🇸

    I thought these boys got new cloths from their sponsors every week. Looks like they didnt know he had gone up a few sizes. Looser shirt and he mightnt look so sweaty I mean.

    I remember him finishing runner up to Harrington in the Honda. Harrington was full of praise for his him.
    That was 5 years ago?
    Apparently he's a June specialist!

    & finished Runner up to Speith at the Travelers in June 2017. Could be going for the Hat-trick next week!

    I recall Harrington putting out a tweet of him tucking into a burger after the playoff win, I don't think Berger saw the funny side of it IIRC.

    It's 25 rounds under par in a row now.

    And the other man doing unbelievable stuff, Morikawa, is five consecutive cuts made from tying Tiger's record for a rookie.

    Did I read somewhere Harrington took him under his wing a bit with advice, practice rounds etc... After the Honda?

    A burger & coke is Paddy’s celebratory dinner of choice afaik rather than it been a dig at Berger. Definitely not his style to disrespect one of his peers.

    26 under? Were they on a pitch and putt course?

    I don't mind Hatton. But I do love a good spontaneous combustion. Could be incoming.

    Magnificent finish from Webb Simpson to seal it. Berger was impressive late in the day too, a friend was saying that if you added up the combined par putt distance for Berger it was under 200 inches total.
