    Rahm's comeback from an opening 4 putt is one of the most amazing in-round comebacks I've seen in my 6 decades.

    Hats off to Koepka, I don't like the Saudi golf members but he looked like the old Brooks (for now).

    Man, how about that Spieth rollercoaster? -4, then loses 3 strokes, then birdies 16 & 17 to get back to -3.

    Scheffler is nails tee to green but that flatstick is giving him issues (he actually blew up at one point too.)

    Great leaderboard, he's hoping for a great weekend.

    Weather this weekend is supposed to be complete shit, which means a likely Monday finish. On the other hand, the greens should be slow, which ought to open up scoring.

    Those off early Friday who can get in could have a nice advantage. Tee times already pushed up 30 minutes.

    DraftKings had a "special" for Spieth to shoot 71 or better, and at the turn you could have smelled the money. Then you were fucked. And then you got it back.

    I don't know how anyone can stand betting on Spieth. Or Rory. Just licenses for heart attacks.

    Oh I absolutely agree. The one that I’m the most sentimental about is Denny Matthews. 55 years. I’ve lost count how many times that voice has gone through my speakers.
    I was fortunate enough to meet Fred White on several occasions……those two in their heyday were like biscuits and gravy.
    But what I’ve always loved about Matthews is he didn’t often times need a 2nd voice in the booth. He had enough knowledge and was so familiar with all of the backstory, but at the same time, was good enough to know when to not say a word.

    Late-Early gonna be the better draw for sure.
    Talk about a switch in weather. It was approaching 90 in Augusta earlier in the week. High of 51 Saturday.

    Great. I’ll win the lottery and get right on that.

    Honestly, I don't mind Koepka. I kind of like the guy actually, especially given how openly annoyed he is by DeChambeau.

    I think Brooksie is a dick, but I also think it would hilarious to watch the squirming if he (or any LIV guy) won.
