Can Zach find a way to survive 17,  if he can 18 sets up well for him

I just have no opinion on him. I have reasons to like all the other guys making a run.
Just kidding about his face. The way we try to decide who to root for if it's not one of (most of) ours, like Spieth, is funny sometimes.

Zach with a complete mishit from the fairway on 17,  but well it could have been worse

Leishman is being handed this championship right now.
 
I don't know about that. He is the one guy who seems to have stepped up to say, it's mine I want it.  -15 the last 2 days is not having something handed to you

306, row 14
That chip dropping for Spieth would've been huge. I figure he is going to need to birdie at least one of 14-16 to have a chance. -16 is looking like the number. 18 is the easiest hole left and there is basically no shot at a birdie on 17.

I'll be surprised if Leishman doesn't fall to -15 at least.

Hell of a putt there,  Zach better find someplace and stay warm,  right now he is probably 50/50 for a playoff

Clutch putt by Zach, but that little dance by his caddie makes me want him to lose even more.

Kinda nice to see a player overcome by the moment like that.
 
I'm not a huge fan, but Zach Johnson was nails today.
 
ZJ earned my respect when he got goosed by the air cannon at the John Deere Classic, handled it in stride, but missed the playoff by a stroke, and still went to find Spieth before the playoff began and told him to win it.  Seems like a good dude.
