I only saw bits & pieces of the action today but Rory was MIA, JT & JS at times looked lost.  Never saw any of Rahmbo but that was probably a good thing.  Going to be an interesting 3 days.

The putting looked as tough as nails today. So many players losing shots on putting

Having new E-star windows installed today.  22 windows, lots of activity.  Wife went shopping to avoid the noise.  River and I are manning the fort and have TGC on catching event highlights.

Sad for Chad.  He was just too aggressive getting the ball close to that back pin.  Still got a shot though.

Too bad Rahm got a stomach bug.  In think he would have made a run today.

I kept wondering what happen to him and then it was announced he had withdrawn.  Travel and eating out, even with as much care as they and their teams probably take, always adds a little risk.

I like it when Rahm plays, always a force.

Well it's looking like the new PGA Commissioner (Rory Mcllroy) and his Assistant (Billy Horschel) will not be making the cut. They still have a few holes to squeeze it out.

That was brutal to watch. Just one in the water is bad enough.

They both looked like pretty decent shots, too.

Had so much fun watching with Ivan last night. He has a few small things he does that just make me laugh. Anytime shot tracer goes up he points at it and he can be playing with some other toys, but hears a good shot and then there is clapping on tv and instantly drops his toys and starts clapping himself. 

It's snowing a bit here today (won't last) so looks like we will watch a good bit more while the weather isn't at its best.

Yep.

Love it for the old driver v new driver argument. 

Obviously, if a tour pro is going to use a 3 year old driver then they must be still good, right?

Scheffler is just so impressive to me.  This guy had ZERO wins coming into 2022.  Here we are early in 2023 and he has 5 wins, a major, and goes toe to toe with Rahm and McIlroy for two days at the Players (arguably the two most dominant players in the game right now) and schools them (well Rahm WD... but still).  He is just solid and consistent.  Mad respect for him.

What do you guys think... is it going to be one of the "unknown" guys or will one of the big guns rise to the top?

All I know is I still so badly want to play this course!

I havent seen slope ratings like that on one course ever. we play 130 slope from the white tees at my home course and that is solid in my opinion. from memory the course rating from the tips at Sawgrass is 76 point something, so in order for me to shoot my handicap I have to shoot 76.. that is unreal for me
