That is shocking. It was most certainly a bloodbath today. Look at the leaderboard, it's mostly mid to high 70s and 80s. I can't remember ever seeing anything like that. Maybe the 3rd round of the 2018 US Open, when Mickelson hit his ball while it was rolling on the green.There was only 1 round under par today. Nobody in the 60s (par 72). 2020 PGA Tour is AWESOME.
I heard Jacobson say that the pin positions were easier today. More back pins.Still difficult, but doesn't look as difficult as yesterday. 3 people have already finished under par and there are 6 others currently under par including Fitzpatrick who is -4 thru 10.
He seems to be wound very tightly.Hatton blowing up on 11, making this a tournament again.
But Hatton is loaded for bear. He could have another blow up. On his next swing.He seems to be wound very tightly.
Of course, Im rinsing his wedge on 13 places him right back in the lead.
So much more fun to watch than some of these robots. Big Rahm fan too. Always seconds away from a complete emotional meltdown. *chef kiss*Hatton is like Rahm. Wears his emotions on his sleeve, never have to wonder if he likes a shot or not, never far from a meltdown. I find it entertaining.
He’s not going to win this week - well, I don’t *think* he is - but Im has a tremendous game and the mindset of a professional assassin.Would like to see Sungjae’s tee shot on 18.
I read that as, "I'm leaving too many putts short," and I'm like, "Take it to the 2020 golf thread, amateur."Im leaving too many putts short... agree he seems to have a ton of potential right now.
Every was on NLU and gave a good answer when he was asked about the 11. It was basically a tin cup. Water left, Pin left, and right to left wind. So he needed to hit a cut into that hole location. When he’s missing his irons it’s left, which is what happened on that hole. He said he could’ve just bailed out to the right but he wouldn’t have gotten anything out of doing that. He was already going to miss the cut so he didn’t really care about his score and decided he was going to hit as many as it took to hit the shot he wanted to hit.Anyone know what happened to Matt Every on the 5th hole? He got an 11, so I'm assuming it was a Tin Cup situation into the drink but he kinda broke Shot Tracker on PGATour.com
There is already one confirmed case in St. John's County and given the minimal amount of testing data I'd assume there are more.They are full steam ahead with events at this point. There have been some rumors about the Match Play being canceled/PPD since Austin canceled the SXSW festival that runs at the same time of the tournament. There has also been chatter about the PGA of America and PGA Tour taking about moving the PGA Championship from TPC Harding Park in San Francisco to TPC Sawgrass. Not really sure what a change of venue would really accomplish. I’m surprised they are allowing fans on the course right now in Sawgrass. I guess it is open air, maybe that helps, but we’re still talking about 50,000 people in close contact.
Looks like the “all shots live” thing is under PGA Tour Live. Every group is listed to watch. If I click on a group in the PGA Tour app it jumps me over to NBC Sports app.

You'd probably hear the conversations as well.
Well that blows for people who bought tickets, flew down, and are already there.No fans starting tomorrow.

It does, but I assume a lot of out of town fans may have already bailed on it at this point. And well it is unfortunate for them, it is the right thing to doWell that blows for people who bought tickets, flew down, and are already there.
I agree. Just a tough situation.It does, but I assume a lot of out of town fans may have already bailed on it at this point. And well it is unfortunate for them, it is the right thing to do
I think Rudy Gobert and Adam Silver moved the PR needle more than anything. They may have moved the needle for the entire country.According to one of my students that works in marketing at JIA... there was still significant inbound Players related passenger traffic at the airport this week.
Apparently, the baggage belts also take a beating thanks to all of the golf bags.
Other than publicly announcing additional hand sanitizing stations, the tournament/tour was all-in until last night. I wonder how much the, so far, single case in St. John's County moved the PR needle.
I think this is one sport that will be better without fans. Also no fans to stop balls heading for really bad places.How interesting would it be if they played without fans in attendance? I'd imagine scores would be higher? Less people to trample rough in problem areas.
