They showed the birdie on 15.

Missed birdie putt on 11 and birdie on 15.

hawkwing · 22-01-2022 11:11pm

Home in 66 and no fkin idea how he played really.

abff · 22-01-2022 11:11pm

Finished with a 66 and currently in second place, one shot off the lead and one shot ahead of four players in tied third. Some of these players are still on the course, so Seamus may be joined in second or even move down a place or two by the time the round is finished.

2 putts that I saw. Much better to show Mickelson holing out 26 shots behind. It’s bizarre.

Heighway61 · 22-01-2022 11:17pm

Would loved to have seen that outward nine.

He seems to be in a good frame of mind for the challenge ahead.

AyeGer · 22-01-2022 11:59pm

It would be great to see Seamus do well tomorrow and Lowry do well in Abu Dhabi.

Deeper Blue · 23-01-2022 2:17am

I reckon he'll win tomorrow.

Lad GAGA · 23-01-2022 10:10am

Tonight could be a big, big night for him, he has a great chance to win. No one ahead of him has won recently (I think) and he has a nice lead on the big guns like Cantlay and Rahm. Fingers crossed, at least we'll get to see him tonight. Either way he will make good inroads on his world and fedex rankings with a high finish tonight.

It’s the same when Eldrick plays. The audience in USA rather see these players hit shots than players in contention. If the viewers want that and they bring in ad revenue then we are stuck with it

tayto lover · 23-01-2022 11:02am

The Sky coverage of Seamus was disgraceful. I’m getting rid of Sky as soon as I can find another means of watching sport.

they get us feed. Nothing they can do about it unless they send over a crew. You’ll be happy to pay extra for that?

boardise · 23-01-2022 12:11pm

Seamus can certainly do it , For this to happen he needs to make hay on the par 5s ( Barjon is 12 under on them so far !) and avoid 3 putts,

If he makes a play-off I wouldn't doubt his mental fortitude.

Could be a massive year for Irish golf with Shane also looking potent early on ...and we still have Leona to come,

Should also say that Padraig can make a big splash on the Champions tour to add to the jollity.

Paddy can still mix it with the big boys,only a few lip outs from being right in the mix today and 4th in a major last year.

Panrich · 23-01-2022 7:56pm

Disastrous start for Seamus according to the PGA website. Looks like a reload from the tee and in the fairway bunker on his third. Very disappointing start to his round.

Double bogey to start. Hopefully Seamus can recover from here one hole at a time.

Trampas · 23-01-2022 8:02pm

That’s his winning chance over

Dr. Bre · 23-01-2022 8:06pm

A nightmare start . Reminds me off Lowry this morning

The Big Easy · 23-01-2022 8:07pm

Oof, an ugly flashback to Seamus of old, but he's a different player now, so hopefully he can work back into it 🤞

Hopefully that's the only similarity to Shane's round from earlier.

Icemancometh · 23-01-2022 8:07pm

Disappointing that both Irish contenders today each had dreadful opening holes.

Mushy · 23-01-2022 8:07pm

Bad first hole for the 2 irish contenders today

Panrich · 23-01-2022 8:18pm

Bit of a meltdown so far. Another shot gone at 2. Two bunkers and 30 feet for par.

Scrabbel · 23-01-2022 8:28pm

A good round from here on out to get a high finish and keep the momentum going (and maintain the top 50 place). Let’s keep the faith.

dublin49 · 23-01-2022 8:35pm

So disappointing after Lowry earlier,thought we might see a bit of Seamus tonite but imagine brodcasters will ignore him now.

WillyWonka · 23-01-2022 9:08pm

Let's keep the faith. A win not on the cards but let's hope for a good finisher and an appearance at The Masters.

A win isn't out of the equation yet, he's only one behind Rahm and Cantlay and you can be sure they think they can win, so why not Seamus

fullstop · 23-01-2022 9:24pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118522777#Comment_118522777

It is if you don’t take advantage of the par 5s.

The Big Easy · 23-01-2022 9:26pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118522780#Comment_118522780

Yeah, was writing that thinking he'd roll in that 10 footer on 5 for birdie

Panrich · 23-01-2022 9:29pm

And a watery grave on 6.

fullstop · 23-01-2022 9:35pm

Jaysus it’s like a carbon copy of Lowry this morning. Did not see this coming.

The Big Easy · 23-01-2022 9:37pm

Very disappointing, hope he can somehow recover for a top 10

The Big Easy · 23-01-2022 9:40pm

Unlucky with that bogey putt, easier to watch the NFL now I suppose

joebloggs32 · 23-01-2022 9:41pm

Who put the hex on the lads for today?

I got up this morning looking forward to watching Lowry having a go at a win. By the 7th hole he was out of contention.

Didn't think it would be Deja Vu this evening

Deeper Blue · 23-01-2022 9:41pm

Damage limitation now, hopefully a few birdies coming in and a decent cheque.

In fairness it's the first time he's played poorly in a while. No shame in it

The Big Easy · 23-01-2022 9:43pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118522862#Comment_118522862

Brutal isn't it, at the very least we thought we'd get some excitement from watching them challenge.

Sunday as always is the day to bring your game and if you don't.....

Mantis Toboggan · 23-01-2022 9:54pm

Jaysus Power has a bad dose of the lowry's

Rikand · 23-01-2022 9:59pm

He birdied 7 at least. but he looks skittled on 8 after another ropey drive

Widdensushi · 23-01-2022 10:09pm

Disappointing, but still doing well to be there, small margins, i think we all built up for a big day, first thing this morning Lowry and later power, they are still doing fantastic overall, relatively to yesterday bad but we move on.

The Big Easy · 23-01-2022 10:15pm

Good lad Seamus, keep grinding!!

hawkwing · 23-01-2022 10:15pm

Comeback is on now, hopefully a decent finish

The Big Easy · 23-01-2022 11:12pm

Nearly pitched in for eagle on 11, nice recovery from a horror start

Panrich · 23-01-2022 11:20pm

If he can pull this back into a top 10 finish, it will be a great comeback.

Icemancometh · 23-01-2022 11:30pm

4 under his last 6 holes. Such a pity about the start.

Scrabbel · 23-01-2022 11:35pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118523259#Comment_118523259

Absolutely. There’s $207k for 10th place and I assume decent OWGR points so anything Top 10 would help keep his Top 50 status.

Widdensushi · 23-01-2022 11:45pm

4 birdies since being 5 over, great character to turn it around.

Rikand · 24-01-2022 12:20am

Just bogeyed 15, but still playing pretty good. be interesting to see how he gets on, on the 16th. Pick up a birdie in the last 3 holes and he'll finish top15 so not too bad considering the start

Panrich · 24-01-2022 12:53am

Play it safe down the last. He doesn't need to burn any more Fedex or ranking points trying to be a hero.

joebloggs32 · 24-01-2022 1:17am

T14 finish.

Pity about the nightmare start but he showed great character to steady the ship.

Looks like he moves up two places on the fed ex table. Probably makes a slight move up the world rankings too along with another good pay day of over $100k.

Motivator · 24-01-2022 1:39am

Very disappointing day for Seamus but these things happen. He would have hat to shoot 65 to tie Swafford and to shoot that score on that course, everything would have had to drop. He played excellent golf yet again for probably 67 or 68 of 72 holes so nothing wrong with his four days work at all. A two week break is probably just what he needs after that, I think he’s coming back to Waterford for a few days so plenty of time to rest up and get back it in two weeks time.

A positive move in the fedex standings as mentioned above and more OWGR points which is what’s most important. Also mentioned above is the small matter of the probably $130k cheque he picks up this evening. Still a great few weeks and everything is going in the right direction. Maintaining the level of golf he’s produced over the last few months is probably a huge ask but I do still think there’s more in the tank and another win is on the horizon. 12 top 25s in his last 18 starts I think is the stat now. An incredible run of golf by any man’s standards.

mitchelsontour · 24-01-2022 1:55am

While the start was not what he wanted, the character he showed in knuckling down and grinding out a score shows a level of doggedness that will surely stand to him the next time things get rocky.
