Having an early tee time was a big deal today
Course was a easier this morning. I haven't seen score-to-par difference between AM & PM rounds. It seemed like there was a lot of really bad scores this morning.

Those early guys also had to finish off yesterday's round. It was a brutal, long day for guys like Tiger, Homa, etc.

I've been able to watch most of the afternoon and a lot of these late guys just look lost out there, putting in this wind looks like torture.

If Scheffler can keep it at even par that's pretty impressive.

Yea some of the guys sounded punch drunk during their post round interviews.

Scheffler has to be the favorite as he's the most consistent. DeChambeau has been impressive in his shot making. But can he hold on? It feels like Scheffler is playing just OK and he is tied for lead. While guys like DeChambeau and Homa are playing about as good as they can.

Should be a fun weekend.

“Punch drunk” is aptly put. Guys are just getting their asses kicked.
 
The stat I would like to see if front nine vs. back nine scores broken out AM/PM. Would not surprise me if back nine scores were 5-6 strokes higher than front nine for both AM/PM.

No wind over the weekend is a good thing, but hot & dry will make greens like a pool table. Great if a guy can get close from the fairway.

Bryson played really well yesterday. Hard to say the same for today. He had some big misses on approach shots plus had brutal lip outs on back to back holes. His misses seemed like instances were he misjudged the wind. Calmer weather this weekend could eliminate those misses.
 
Man, I’d like to see an alternate timeline where Tiger keeps his **** together and stays healthy throughout his career.

Going +1 through these two rounds at his age, with his health, while only playing an occasional tournament shows how great his gifts are.
Hell, he might still be the best player in the world if he didn't have to walk it.
