Scottie Scheffler now in hassle. A pleasant par putt on the tenth retains him on observe however he goes by the again of the inexperienced into some thick grass on the par-3 eleventh.

An nearly unimaginable up and down from there. May very well be a dropped shot incoming

The eighth has been, erm… eventful for Jon Rahm.

His tee shot goes behind a tree, he makes use of the again of his membership to show it right into a left-handed membership to get the ball out after which will get a free drop for being close to an immovable impediment.

He completely crushes the third shot to get it up into the greenside tough, the place he’ll have an opportunity at an up-and-down for par. Could be an unbelievable par given the tee shot.

Joel Dahmen heading backwards at this time as he began at -5 however a 3rd bogey on the seventh has him at -2, the place’s he’s joined by Morikawa after the double catastrophe.

Patrick Rodgers drops one on the tenth, so he’s now at -3 and in hassle on the eleventh going from one aspect of the inexperienced to the opposite.

Rodgers duffs the chip out of the tough and it rolls again into the tough, the place he’ll now pitch for bogey… Good pitch, subsequent to the outlet and a faucet in double bogey has him at -1.

The wheels are coming off the Morikawa practice right here…

It’s a DOUBLE BOGEY on the seventh. His tee shot is into the tough and he’s having to scramble from there. Leaves himself about 18 toes for par within the first lower and has an actual thrash at it. It races a good distance by and he misses the bogey return.

A double for Collin who drops to -2.

That sums up Rory McIlroy’s day. A poor second shot leaves him wanting the eighth inexperienced in two however a beautiful wedge along with his third leaves him lower than 10 toes for birdie.

Nevertheless it’s not a very good putt and it misses broad left. That was a must-make birdie. He stays at -1.

Matt Fitzpatrick makes a very good par on the tenth to remain at -2 in the meantime

Rahm’s been flushing his irons however his putter has been ice chilly to this point on shifting day. Till the seventh gap!

More durable birdie look than on the fifth and sixth however from 18 toes, the reigning champion hits it on line and it’s within the coronary heart of the outlet. Birdie to maneuver to -4, a tie for 2nd with the gettable par-5 eighth up subsequent.

Doubtless the important thing shot to this point at this time has been Scottie Scheffler’s 100-yard, pitch-in eagle on the par-5 eighth.

Spectacular from the front-on angle as nicely.

Simply to clear up a few bogeys.

Matt Fitzpatrick did save bogey at 10 with a pleasant up and down from the tough, whereas Aaron Clever bogeyed the seventh.

Matt drops to -2 and Clever to -3.

Collin Morikawa appears to be like pissed off at himself as he falls again to -4. His tee shot on the par-3 sixth finds the bunker, it’s a very good sand escape however his 12-foot putt for par is jabbed at and misses.

Scottie Scheffler now has a two-stroke lead once more at -6.

Matt Fitzpatrick in massive hassle on the tenth. He’s battling to avoid wasting bogey.

His tee shot finally ends up on the highest some rocks. Puddingstone rock I consider it’s referred to as on this neck of the woods. He’s fortunate to have a shot in any respect, honestly and he’s capable of get out on the golf green.

189 to the outlet and he misses the inexperienced proper. From the tough, he’ll should gap it for par or, hopefully, have the ability to stand up and all the way down to not less than save bogey
