Any link? All I'm seeing is the chunk that finished hours ago!
Yup, Sky for me too.It's getting all a bit tense now although Thomas has just gone off piste from the tee on the 15th

Just seen the leaderboard, wow, some turnaround there, did JT blow up? Nowt on BBC website which is v poor.
Didn’t really blow up, he was just outclassed and Finau hit an amazing long super fast put on the 18th to perfection to take 2nd, All 3 played amazing Golf today, JNW1 said:
When he's on it McIlroy really is a joy to watch - bit of a wobble on the back nine today but overall a well deserved win. Amusing little dig at Greg Norman as well (assume that was who he meant when he said he was longer tied with someone on 20 PGA Tour wins?).
Yes, nice little dig 🙂Gregory John Norman AO (born 10 February 1955)[2][3] is an Australian entrepreneur[4] and retired professional golfer who spent 331 weeks as the world's Number 1 Official World Golf Rankings ranked golfer in the 1980s and 1990s.[5] He won 89 professional tournaments, including 20 PGA Tour tournaments and two majors: The Open Championships in 1986 and 1993

Final round of the Canadian must have been the dream finish for the PGA Tour… fabulous golf and proper competition amongst some of the the best players in the World… rather showed the LiV Tour up for what it is.
I think so.Rory & JT had a bit of a chat (over & above the usual 'well done') on the 18th. I bet LIV was the subject, as they will both have been offered lumps - and Rory is quite fired up about rejecting it.
I don’t expect their sponsors will be very happy… they are getting a load of coverage now, but they’ll quickly disappear in to obscurity if the LIV Tour can’t attract more top players or decent TV coverage.
Rocket Mortgages dropped DeChambeau when he announced, for example.
They’ll probably make more money out of the signing payment, but it’s not without any consequences. Will be interesting to see what reaction they get from the crowd at the US Open this weekend.
Personally, I think their games will deteriorate pretty quickly when they are only playing a few events and it’s not a very high level of competition… which for someone like DeChambeau, who wants to compete in the majors, will be a problem.

Totally agree with you.Rocket Mortgages dropped DeChambeau when he announced, for example.

As has been said, if it does fold, will the PGA accept them back with open arms. Or will their be a sting in the tail?
Second round yesterday of our foursomes match comp.
Had to give the other pair 5 shots, we hit 4 pars & 2 birdies on the opening 9, started the back 9 with a birdie as well.
Won 7&6.
It helps when your playing partner is a low single figures & puts everything off the tee onto the middle of the fairway & then chips anything inside 75 yards to about 3 feet.
It's nice when i get to use my experience out of the rough & trees when he did miss the odd one!

I'd be amazed if there aren't more defections among those who reckon they could beat Schwartzel (and other LIV players of similar calibre) standing on their head.
Under 3 weeks to go until I play Valderrama.
Currently playing my best golf at the moment so hope it continues, having the sim in the garage and being able to hit 1000+ balls, is really paying off.
Rounds of 77/79 this week with shots left out there, mainly due to the short game (as shown below) had a lesson up at Pete Cowen's place last week, so need to work on this now.
Chasing ball speed seems to have paid off, I'm up to 180-183mph when flat out which is seeing around 290-295 carry. Which even when not flat on the course is seeing 300 easily.
