No course really suite a bad putter. McIlroy should have shot 59 or 60 today. He missed two putts inside 10 feet, another two inside fifteen and three more hours inside of twenty.

Realistically, how many of them do you expect him to make? 1? 2? I've never heard someone say "he *missed* a putt inside twenty feet". Once you go beyond 6 feet, the 1-putt percentage drops off a cliff.

Think I read before that 7.5 feet is the 50:50 range on the PGA Tour.

Do people think pros are knocking in 10 footers like they are tap ins I've heard it all now.

10 foot putts are about in the 4 in 10 range on PGA tour
8 foot is about 5/10 and so on.

Missing a couple of 10 footers does not make you a bad putter.

McIlroy could win this by 10 from here but I wouldn't be shocked either if he finished 50th. He's exciting to watch if nothing else

Maybe the course won't suit him over the weekend...

You should get in touch with the world number one golfer, to provide him with this advice.

That says far more about him than it says about me.
The fact that he hasn't figured this out by now tells you all you need to know about his mental game.
He doesnt have one.

Meanwhile I'm still waiting for someone to give an example of why harbour town doesn't suit him... Jump in any time.

Shane had a nice round today great to see. Hopefully he can continue it into the weekend. Some other nice scores out there from Sergio who is hitting the ball as good as ever and a few others.

Spieth has the toughest mental game out there of the top lads Id say of the younger crew, Tiger possibly still the best though. Rory the weakest of the top 20 no contest. Sergio in the same bracket. Its well Rory got the first major monkey off his back early, or it could have really become a thing.

World number one has no mental game.

Are you ok?

Not really. When the game is a hundred percent, no one can touch him and he wins. When its less than that, he folds too easily, and gets stroppy that that magic isnt there and cant control it. When he's game is off, he has himself beat in his own head before he even gets out of the traps like last year at Portrush.

Rory to fade away on Sunday. Hope he proves me wrong.

Perception really is a big thing, Speith had just as big a masters blowout as Rory, possibly even worse. His career has been in a bad way for a couple of years now.

The first quoted post is what the commentators agreed on and what I said early during his round and after his round.

Fair enough but that doesn't make it true. He was almost exactly average according to strokes gained. Which seems about right from what I watched. Not good or bad. He didn't miss anything woeful.

I rate my own putting performance as good when I make everything I should, plus a couple that I probably shouldn't. Its by far the most variable part of anyone's game, including the pro's.

Hovland going well so far this week. Would be cool to see him get a win under his belt early on. Hopefully he will be on the Ryder Cup team, for whenever that ends up happening.

23 straight without a missed cut, good going, Matt Fitz onto 21 without missing a cut if he makes it through.

Matt Wallace playing on his own!!!

Panrich

This is surely going to cause trouble for the PGA. I wouldn't want to be paired with Wallace tomorrow and God knows who else is infected at this stage from the practice range etc.

Bubbaclaus

Things will get interesting if people who are around the lead start getting it and having to withdraw during the weekend at an event. Would start affecting the integrity of tournaments.

Mantis Toboggan

If one of the top players get it then the PGA may be forced to take action.

Mushy

Positive tests are a very low number, theres continuous testing in place. Only so much the pga tour can do to prevent it spreading amongst its members

What ? As long as its names people dont know, its carry on like ? What would have them take action ? A wgr top 20 player ? A major winner ? Someone on the first page of the leaderbord ?
