Finished at -4 yesterday ... no bogeys.
Shoots 68 again today (1bogey) ... all alone in second place, 4 back of Koepka as this is written. Rahm might catch him but the weather is closing in.
First time since 1958 that an amateur has occupied 2nd place on any day at The Masters. He’s a cool customer. Very confident.

The ace was right out of a story book.
Great guy … sponsor exempt at Colonial this week.

PGA to merge with LIV
I dont understand and I dont think I want to.

I love short track racing with all my heart
There's literally nothing the Saudis can't buy their way into.
Because of their oil money, there's never been any consequence for them for their involvement in 9/11.

So all of the golfers that were so outraged and outspoken against LIV will be joining another tour….right?

Making complete hypocritical asses of Woods, McIlroy, etc.
Ridiculous.

Bunch of pussies. Won’t be long before the Saudis, Qataris, and Emiratis own or influence every major cuntjral and sporting institution of the West.

The more I think about this the more I would like
to see all the current PGA golfers break away and
create their own tour. I think Tiger and some corporate
backers could lead the charge. Who knows what the
legal ramifications are and even if its feasible but they
should at least get some phone calls going.
It would not surprise me one bit if the Saudis paid big
bucks directly to each one of the PGA executives to make
this unthinkable merger happen.
It was happy news when Sportscar and Indycar finally
got their act together and merge their repective sanctions.
This PGA/LIV merger is a whole new level of dissapointment.

Seeing all the best golfers compete against each other on a weekly basis seems better than having the tour divided. All of the sudden fans have morals. They’re typing their thoughts in on their iPhones sitting in front of their Samsung televisions after getting back from filling their cars gas tank up with gas refined from Saudi oil. The post above is absolutely correct….. Everything is connected. As a fan, I’m all about seeing the best out on the course. It’s a win for me. Maybe others need to tune out?

As the poster said above, "All of a sudden fans have morals" which is true
except for the word "sudden".
They're just the same morals of the PGA golfers who did not jump to LIV from the beginning.
What was sudden here is the change of the PGA's front office's moral compass.

Choosing not to watch a sportwashing government-owned sports league is a pretty easy consumption choice to make. I don’t pick where my oil comes from.

Absolutely correct…. Bad phrasing on my part. I should have said selective morality. We're good with the gas in our tanks but want our golf Saudi free.
Obviously money drove the PGA's decision. Same as most businesses.

I mean that raises the obvious question of why it was tax exempt in the first place.
