McGinley's desperate for Tiger to be done, constantly talking about "Father Time" and him not being able to compete. Talks absolute drivel, he won less than a year ago, not played great this week but putted dreadfully and is still beating a lot of guys. Hate his commentary, has been talking rubbish all week, said the other day "Spieth has never been stellar tee-to-green" ?‍♂️

I'm feeling for the greenkeeper after seeing the practice ground at this tournament. It is absolutely hacked up to pieces ?. Barely any grass left.

Maybe it is always like that by day 4 and we don't get to see the practice area normally. Absolute butchery though.

compared to the state they normally get the course back in he'll be more than happy, lack of walkways, trampled down rough, damaged ground for stands/tented villages/car parks etc

I always thought they all ended up like this. I imagine they will just rip the turf up, re-turf and fence it off for a few weeks.

Great start by both Finau and BDC. Wonderful control with their irons. Puts the pressure on straight away.

A real shame that the timings are so bad for us here as this looks as though it could be a great last round.

The par 3 tees end up the same way too usually.

I didn't realise that. 10 minutes behind and they still didn't bleep Justin Thomas's f bomb ?.

That's unusual, any reason for it?

Final day they show everyone off the last tee so a lot of shots are shown on delay, should improve now everyones on the course

Dont watch a betting site if you dont want to know what happens before you see it on your tv ;)

sky showing a leaderboard with Fleetwood having played 5 holes despite showing him hole a putt on 6 over 10 min ago lol

Scoring in general has been way behind, I checked the leaderboard earlier about 10 minutes after Ben An's hole in one and the PGA Tour site had him still playing his 2nd shot on the 10th on the play-by-play.

Seems my little flutters since restart keep being in great shape Saturday night only to fade - same again here ?

Tricky to call who's going to take this right now. We are often spoiled with being able to watch golf on an evening, shame this one is that bit later.
