Louis dodging some bullets from Jordan and Collin lately.


If he can birdie 18 he will really have a lot of momentum going into tomorrow.

I’ll still be rooting for Speith and have some faith in him, but those last 2 holes were rough. Wonder if it’ll be in his head going into tomorrow. He’s gonna need to come out firing tomorrow to try and get back with Morikawa and Louis, I think Morikawa is best positioned to win right now out of the top 3.

This is awkward watching him anxiously practice immediately after his round.

Noticed he missed like all 3 putts they showed too lol. Woof Speith, he’s gonna need to have a little change of pace when he goes to bed tonight. Last 2 holes was sad to watch from him. I don’t see Louis or Morikawa dropping the ball entirely tomorrow, going to take some real good play from Speith tomorrow to get there again.

Problem for him is he's always in his head. There'll be multiple times in each tournament where he's audibly frustrated with a drive or approach and it'll be in the middle of the fairway or close to the hole.

So if he's in his own head on good shots, it's got to be even worse for stuff like that, as evidenced with this post-round putting they are showing and those aren't even close.

My money is on Morikawa to win it as well

Agree. Terrible way to finish 18, but all hell has not broken loose. Need to know you’re still in it and calm down.

Morikawa is striking the hell out of the ball, but he has some putting issues of his own, especially in clutch situations.

Morikawa is a awful putter but he's benefiting from slow greens this week.

I have no doubt that Jordan will probably double up Louie and Collin in birdies tomorrow. it’ll all come down to how many wild arse moments he has to fight through

Oosthuizen is overdue and then some. How is it this guy has never won a tournament in the USA? In his entire career in the PGA, he has won one time in the Open. Another great reason he should never let this opportunity pass him by tomorrow.

Louis is to majors as Tony Finau is to mediocre tour stops

Louis really hasn’t won many tournaments with full fields. He’s credited with several European wins, but only one was on European soil other than his Open Championship. The rest were co-sponsored events in Asia or South Africa.

He won The Open 11 years ago. Don’t act like this dude is just skirting along.

So many low scores in the early groups.

Someone like Rahm might shoot 62 today.
