Oak Hill playing tough, US Open vibes

Scheffler currently leading at -5 and yet to make a bogey

Interesting to see Bryson playing decent golf for the first time in what seems like years

I see Sam Burns is currently losing to 15 PGA club pros after shooting 74-80

Hopefully we see a tight leaderboard over the weekend

Was thinking - they have basically modeled the US open over the last few years - I like it - if the rough is a bit OTT -- Rose looking older these days.

The change in the size of Bryson is incredible - he looks 10 years younger.

Rain and wind - will be havoc - if they let them play.

Looking at pictures of him when he won the US Open and he looks like a cartoon character, comically big

Ya since it moved to May they seem to have changed their approach. Kiawah, Southern Hills and Bethpage were all brutes. Big fan of it

Spieth's putting stroke looks awful these days, a shame as the rest of his game seems in good order.

Cardinal sin from Mcllroy

I like it - and it seems to have put the event on the map - was the kind of, forgotten about major.

He was big but tv makes all these guys look alot bulkier than they actually are in real life.

Lowry playing lovely stuff. Into -2 now after a run of birdies.

Mushy · 20-05-2023 8:33am

Lowry and Mcillroy together for the 3rd round at 6.40, hopefully be good to watch

Weather is terrible. Thomas Peters hit a 3 wood 4 yards out of the wet rough

Would love Hovland to do this

AyeGer · 21-05-2023 9:27am

I’m rooting for Hovland now if Rory or Shane can’t make it. But I don’t have any issue with Brooks winning. He lead the masters after day 3 and now leading the PGA. So he is obviously still a great golfer.
