McIlroy gets a hole in one in the Travellers

He is 7 shots off the lead so outside of the hole in one, he struggled...

It was a bizarre round. He was average early, then got hot following the hole in one. Found himself in a good position as he stood on the easy par 5 13th tee and promptly stuck it in the water and made bogey. Even then he managed to bogey 2 of the last 3, an iron that went 2 yards too far and a drive that went right up the lip of a bunker.

Scheffler putted better yesterday, if he keeps doing that he could win this by a mile.

Chances. Theegala cut and Champ didn’t start, but the other four are all in with a chance

Unfortunately can see another Sunday where Rory puts on a ball striking clinic but can’t buy a putt and haplessly watches one of the other contenders glide past him…

 

[Anil]

Rory manages to finish it off for once, well done! And apparently with clutch birdies on 17 and 18! Will wonders never cease? Yet another top 5 for Scheffler…

I’ve got two pay outs in 6th place in the Scottish open and potentially a winner and a place in the Barbarasol golf in the USA

Caddie should not be paid unless she overruled him/her

Wow that's bad! I can't imagine she'd cheat so they had to have been completely unaware...would have felt worse if she had been in contention...

Funny old round from Rory. His driving was right off on the front 9 and made a couple of decent putts to prevent the score getting worse. But his iron shots into 17 and 18 were things of beauty before holing the 10 footer for victory. Should also be said that MacIntyre's round was astonishingly good and his shot into 18 was also stunning. Just 3 birdies on that all day and the two leaders had 2 of them (it was playing straight into the wind, Rory hit driver, 2 iron for a 455yd hole). With the wind helping, he hit a 428yd drive on the 7th!!

I do fancy Scheffler this week at Hoylake. You just know he's going to be in with a chance. Looks like the wind will blow a bit first 2 days but then ease up over the weekend. Rory won here last time, he'll take some stopping again.
