    Looks like the wedge game practice is paying off today anyway. Hopefully it continues

    the putting looks very good too, the small bit they show, as u said hitting the wedges close makes the putting a lot easier

    his best round ever is a minus 11 on a par 72 at the Wells Fargo in 2015.

    Hard to imagine a few years ago Rory & Tiger share the current R1L both on -8.

    doesn't need to putt when he is hitting them that close. greens seem perfect for good iron players today and placements seem handy enough.

    Could arguably be a shot or 2 better too. Would be great if he can keep it going.

    Par 3 8th will be critical. Hardest whole on the course with multiple doubles on it.

    Hole 10: 87 yards to 9'2"
    Hole 11: 72 yards to 8'5"
    Hole 12: 104 yards to 8'5"
    Hole 13: 138 yards to 3'4"
    Hole 14: 166 yards to 2'7"

    Amazing wedge game today for a 20 handicap.

    got a totally lucky bounce on his drive there on the 7th (16th hole). should be good for a birdie even tho in rough.

    Would love to see him and Woods separate themselves from the field over the weekend à la Phil/Stenson

    It's almost like his wedge game was pathetic and he went and worked on it and is now significantly better.

    I'd say it's more likely that he just logged on here and took the advise on board.

    Looks like he brought the wrong putter today though. Awful miss on the 5th after stitching it.
