Going to be more than a two man race with conditions. We will see how it unfolds today. If they call it the leaders will have better conditions tomorrow. Rory on his couch with the rest of us.

Possibly, but they have a nice cushion.

Late in 3rd round Koepka is now struggling with his irons. Rahm is steady going, but down by 2. Rahm has been so good this year I have to give him an edge over Koepka.

We’ll see. Brooks is a great front runner.

How about a Koepka-Reed-Mickelson playoff? The PGA of American said all points earned today and the remaining majors will count towards the Ryder Cup, regardless of what tour one plays on.

Seve would have been 66 today. He won the Masters 40 years ago. Great day for Rahm. Even better, he is now the 2nd best ever player from Spain. Some day he will be the best.

It's obvious Koekpa isn't used to playing 72 hole tournaments.

Really? Then why was it 52 year old Michelson had no problem playing 72 holes? Koepka did not play well but who knows why? Rahm on the other hand played great and was a deserving winner. Interesting that Koepka, Michelson and Reed were among the top 6 players.

I should have noted my post had a little sarcasm. Luke Donald mentioned the slow play might have hurt Koepka. He plays fast and they were waiting all day long.

Why wasn’t cantlay penalized for incredibly slow play. Omg that guy is so boring and slow. He was at least a hole and half behind the other group.

I’ve been trying to identify the name of this music with no luck. Begins at the 20 second mark. 0:20

Anyone know it?

Apparently the course is very difficult to get around with big changes in elevation. My guess is that Koepka's knee started barking at him on Saturday while out in those cold, wet conditions. He played more like his injury prone days than those before the injury yesterday.
