Rory is out carrying him with better launch conditions though. at least on the holes i’ve seen compared head to head. I think it depends on the hole. I saw some where Rory had better launch conditions. But they showed more holes where Bryson hit driver and they didn’t show Rory’s tee shot. But it is all about scores and Rory has been ahead in that category at least until now. tony@CIC, Chip Strokes and TR1PTIK 3 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: TS3 15* w/Project X Hzardous Smoke Hybrids: 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54/12D, 60/8M w/:Accra iWedge 90 Graphite Putter: Sacks Parente MC 3 Stripe Backup Putters: Milled Collection RSX 2, mFGP2, Futura 5W, TM-180 Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrogginBullfish Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 That was a lot of fun to see and the crowd loved every second of it.If there's a similar wind tomorrow, he could easily take a line even closer to the green with how well he hit the one today. I definitely hope the wind works out cause it would be awesome to see him take on the green. It was an interesting shot that they showed of Spieth.

fixyurdivot Posted March 7, 2021 Author Share Posted March 7, 2021 Just back from playing today and catching up but was listening to PGA Tour Radio when Jordan got the ace . Looks like he is still hanging within striking distance. Who is this Lee Westwood guy... wow...talk about moving on moving day. And how about Keegan Bradley - very cool. So did Bryson go for the green on #6? Nothing planned for tomorrow but my butt parked on the sofa and watching the final round.
