Yep. Phil didn't very good but he still has a chance if he has a couple of really good rounds.

He had better play well today just to make the cut...

He had better play well today just to make the cut...

What is the cut? 10 shots?

 

[riffjim4069]

I believe that's the starting point...

 

[Scherrman]

There have been a lot of changes in scoring already this morning. When I first looked the cut was at 2 over and now it's at 6 over. It's going to be an interesting day.

I really think that conditions are going to get worse with no rain in sight for the rest of the week. Greens will be like putting on glass.

One of the analyst on the Golf Channel said he didn't expect the lead to get much past -4. He's thinking maybe -6 after today and I think he may be right.

Bubba Watson is threatening to run away. He is -8 right now with 2 holes to play.

Yep, Bubba is looking relax and on top of his game right now. Still...lots and lots of golf yet to play. Go Bubba! Hey, I don't see Tiger Woods? Shouldn't he be there signing autographs and supporting his fellow tour players?

 

[Scherrman]

Bubba finished with a bogie to finish -7. Right now the cut looks to be at 4. I'm very close to missing the cut in my Masters pool.

 

[riffjim4069]

Wow! Did you see the list of notables who failed to make the cut...especially Phil Mickelson who had made the cut for 16 consecutive years until today.

Failed to Launch:
Phil Mickelson +5
Ernie Els +5
Sergio Garcia +5
Charl Schwartzel +5
Luke Donald +5
Webb Simpson +5
..........

T3 Jonas Blixt -3
T3 Adam Scott -3


Go Bubba!!! He looked great during his first two rounds...very relaxed and confident.

 

[riffjim4069]

Well, I'm hoping Bubba continues to play well. I'll be out and about much of the day so I'll have to watch this evening.

 

[Scherrman]

That was a brutal first two days. Lots of great golfers missed the cut and I'm out of the one pool I was in already. There were 21 teams in our pool and 10 of us didn't make the cut with the golfers we picked.

 

[riffjim4069]

Bubba has an eagle on #2, but has also had 4-bogies in the first 7-holes. He's holding onto a lead...but he's having issues. Go Bubba!

 

[riffjim4069]

An hour-ago Bubba had a 5-shot lead...now he's in a 3-way tie.
