A ton of guys within 4 shots at the halfway mark.   Should be a fun weekend.

Rory making a run trying to make the cut.

Koepka realizing he can't bomb and gouge this course. Getting adverse putts, can't hit them.

Let's go Lowry, and maybe a Rickie run tomorrow in the conditions.

Lowry just clowned everyone that round.

That's about as close to a perfect round I've ever seen.

Would be a tremendous feel good story.    But if Koepka could have putted, he could have shot 63 today.    If he figures it out for tomorrow, it will be wildly entertaining.   

Speaking of entertaining, the weather forecast is so bad for Sunday they are moving up tee times.

He is one of the worst slow play offenders.

Brooks going to follow through with his tough talk about slow play? Doubt it.

What is he going to do, deck him?    If they are both really far out of it, I can picture a Rory Sabbatini, Ben Crane moment. 

Right now, it looks like Koepka is affecting JB.

Lowry hanging in there. Leading by 5 through 11. Some tough holes ahead though .  Enjoy seeing the elements come into play.

Of course not. But he likes to talk that he can handle them, take bathroom breaks, play even slower.

I think he’s a lot of talk.

Srixon/Cleveland has enjoyed the last few days.   Graeme McDowell, JB, and of course, the big Irish bear Shane.   Not the usual equipment company logo that we see every week.

The ball doesn't care what you look like, whether you have an idiosyncratic swing, which side of a border you are from.  Good for Shane.

What would you have shot at Portrush today?   Could you have broken 100 in the widn and rain?

I couldn’t have broken 100 over 9 holes

Not a chance but I’d love to try it sometime.

One other player shot 80 and JB shot a 87 along with his slow play.  That’s John Daly slapping it around stuff

Net 100, sure.
