How about old Phil.
Pretty damn impressive so far.
If he can hold this lead going into tomorrow, the old man has a good chance to win it. He’s looking focused.
Interesting thing is this all started after a horrible string of holes on Thursday.
On another note, did you see Cameron Tringale blow up yesterday?
No. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to watch much. I can say that giving ESPN rights to cover a major was the worst possible decision. They absolutely suck at covering golf.

He went from -3 on the 11th hole to +10 by 18.
Course should play like a completely different course today with the wind change. One of the best major venues on tour.
Hope Lefty holds on, but this is prime for Koepka.
I like Koepka to win it as well. Might depend on his knees. Plus, Phil started his run on Friday when it was real windy. Plus, Shrek is still right there.
It'll be interesting.
If Phil stumbles I would like to see Oosthuizen take it. He’s always been of my favorites, mainly because he has a swing that I would most like to emulate. Plus I just like Louis’s demeanor on the course.
Henrik Stenson snapped a club shaft in anger. Thankfully it wasn't his 3 wood.
That didn't take long. 1 hole.SMH.
I could be dead wrong, but I'll bet Mickelson folds. Generally the 'older players' have trouble maintaining for all four rounds. I remember Couples in a few majors when he was 50ish and just couldn't hang with the young guns after three solid rounds.
Mickelson hit a 2-wood on the second hole. I can't recall the last time I even heard anybody SAY 2-wood, let alone use one.
This could end up being whoever [BLEEP] up the least.
Wow
Would love to see this course host an Open with higher rough and quicker greens. Would be a massacre.
Nice bird by Phil to recover, follows with a solid tee shot on #8. Playing under control is good for him.
2 shot lead at the turn. What an exciting tournament this turned out to be.
