Interesting, anything official from the PGA Tour on this email?

Another good first round from Spieth, hopefully he builds on it tomorrow

All aboard the Speith train. His constant chatter was something that always annoyed me but his battle to get back to where he was is extremely intriguing.

The pga video from his last three holes yesterday is amazing. The audio from Speith is just so good.

He driving was all over th place yesterday and lost over two shots off the tee to the field!!

An eagle on his 13th hole of the day and he is now 3 off the lead.

Did I hear Speith is now working with Butch?

Apparently Spieth had consulted him for his opinion once or twice but they're not working together in any sort of full-time capacity

Deeper Blue

Incredible from Spieth, 10 under for the round

7/14 fairways doesnt sound too bad

Great round by Speith but it's Schauffele's to lose, he has barely put a foot wrong and he is way too good not to have won for the past 2 years.

Not nice to hear the roaring back from the gallery. Some oaf roaring after speith drive there.

Cracking finish to here. So many still with a squeak

Unbelievable from brooks

It has to be said, Xander seems to fade badly so often when in contention. Expected him to pull away today when Spieth got over par early on, but again he’s been awful when he has a chance of winning.

Watch him finish with 4 birdies now

Hard to have any faith in him or Finau getting it over the line when it is in sight.

He's been poor. Spieth you can understand but Schauffele is 4th in the world and should be cleaning up here.

Although he did just birdie 16...

Has a chance again now, but he’s just not a good front runner.

As I type he hits another big hook. Game over

He nearly missed the water left!

Poor chip aswell. Disappointing as he's very likeable, he needs to put away a few tournaments now though or the Finau comparisons will get stronger and stronger.

That 17th hole is a cracker

It's a great course, throws up some great drama. I particularly remember the year Rickie took a drop from the water and walked away only to turn and watch the ball roll back in the drink!

It's it just American idiots that shout stupid things after every shot or is it commonplace.
It's crass to say the least.

15, 16 and 17 is a great stretch. It’s just a pity 18 has become a nothing hole now that they can just fly the water. Used to be a really good finishing hole.

Have to say I've much preferred watching the golf without fans. I really haven't missed hearing a load of dickheads shouting "in the hole" when someone tees off on a par 4 or 5 is torture.

Yeah could do without them but the roar when Koepka’s pitch went in, I missed that.
