    Out with Dustin Johnson and Koepka on Thursday

    Very tasty! Dustin has been in cracking form since he came back, unquestionably the group to watch.

    I'd wager that'll be the group with the longest combined average driving !!

    And this'll be the group with the most TV time too.

    Bear Trap, bear trap, bear trap, back now Johnny to the bear trap, bear trap, McIlroy now approaching the bear trap, bear trap, lets take you through the history of the bear trap, bear trap, bear trap.

    Never got it, it's a run of holes that are no more striking than combination on any other course.
    Obvious attempt to create an Amen Corner is obvious.

    What on earth? When did we last see this sort of thing from Rory?

    Just made a great birdie there, if he shoots 72 or better no major damage done and he'll be out early tomorrow in presumably more benign conditions.

    Less than 12 months ago, when we had the whole "freaky friday" thing.

    Wouldn't be surprised to see him still win it or at least be challenging come Sunday from here

    Haha, his front 9 scorecard looks more like one Harrington would have. Everything from a 3 to a 6

    Seems like he's been affected by the court case.

    I hope that's a joke.

    I wouldn't be overly worried about Rory here. But it makes a change watching these players have to cope with this wind on a difficult course.

    Suppose this will revive all the 'he's a poor wind player' stuff.

    This 3 ball showing that bombing it out there is not an advantage when the conditions are blustery.

    Ah that's a great finish from Rory - +3 for the round is respectable.

    Why, did you find it funny?

    Nice finish to the round, needs to improve though to make the cut.

    I did. Why make up a pathetic excuse for his poor play? You know it is possible for him just to have played badly, the windy conditions, tough course, struggling around the greens etc.

    First one in 22 on the PGA Tour. Completely out of sorts. I take great solace in seeing top players suffer, usually reinforces my resolve after my far more frequent bad rounds :-)

    Pity.

    Anyone know how his clothing deal works? When can we expect to see Casey et al wearing the stuff he had on today? (Nice stuff too)
