Two big saves at the 3rd from Rory and Koepka. Ridiculous putt from Koepka for par. Very poor by Rory to follow him into the bunker in the 2nd shot

eagle eye

I fancy Rory to go on win it if he is at the top, even tied, by the turn but if he is behind even by one I'm not so sure.

super driving from rory so far, as always tho he just needs a few putts to drop.

LuckyGent88

Rory probably played the best golf tee to green over first 6 holes but not quite close enough with his irons.

Xander is a bit all over the shop but hanging in there.

Deeper Blue

Lost ball for Koepka, great chance for McIlroy now

Rory holes the 22ft birdie putt and Koepka bogies. Rory leads by one from Xander.

LuckyGent88

Big changes there. That putt from Rory was motoring too

Mushy

Xander gonna bogey too. Thought Rorys drive was way off

Shauffele in a bit of trouble too. Short wedge shot, just ran back down almost to where it started.

That was awful course management once again from Rory. No need to go whipping a draw into the flag. Got lucky with the drain.

You can see how much this week means to him too.

Mantis Toboggan

Super bounce back from Brooks.

Lots of poor shoots being hit here, so much money on the line, pressure must be enormous.

I don't think he was looking for the draw. Was shouting at it when he saw it develop. He showed Justin Rose how to hit that shot that was posted above though.

200 metres with a 6 iron from Brooks...

Maybe for Xander, but for Brooks and Rory, the title has to mean more.

Poor clubbing there from Rory and caddy. They both hit 6 iron at a 215 yard par 3 two holes ago and now Rory goes up a club for the same yardage. Strange

DellyBelly

You'd have to question the caddy there. Even Wayne Reily said 5 iron was to much before he even hit it.

Sharp MZ700

He has to win it from here

LuckyGent88

Another big swing there. Super position now but needs to get through the two brutal holes of 14/15 yet

Mushy

Very odd by Brooks there! Hopefully Rory keeps this up now

markthespark77

keopka couldn't keep missing fairways and keep getting up and down. rory to plow on

You know that all holes don’t play the same direction or elevation, right?

No I didn’t actually. Never thought of that!! Koepka hit 6 iron and the commentators were saying it was too much club for Rory. Better to be short of flag on these back to front greens anyway.

LuckyGent88

Another perfectly played hole. Not sure Iv seen him this focused and determined in a long time. Think he is enjoying the severe challenge that Koepka is bringing.

Remind me

Some display so far. Very enjoyable.

Rory: "I wonder what 15 million buys in the pro shop?"

Brooks: "Gotta lift more weights."

He was shown up a month ago paired with Koepka when the pressure was on. I think hes trying to prove a point.

Hes put some serious pressure on Brooks and has forced to bogeys that you wouldn't have bet on in a month of Sunday.

good to see keopka being brought down to earth a bit. just shows the pressure rory is putting him under.

Remarkable to witness the machine miss successive short putts. Rory is inside his head, and on the way to glory.
