Let's make the hazards easier! (sarcasm)
A statement from the R&A said, “Yesterday afternoon the bunkers dried out more than we have seen in recent weeks and that led to more balls running straight up against the face than we would normally expect.
“We have therefore raked all of the bunkers slightly differently to take the sand up one revet on the face of the bunkers. We routinely rake bunkers flat at most Open venues but decided this adjustment was appropriate in light of the drier conditions which arose yesterday.”

Could be exciting Sunday with 17th and 18th both capable of producing huge numbers.

Looking like there won’t be too many contestants with all four making the cut.

When Morikawa won two majors in quick time I thought he was going to be the next big thing but now he’s not even making cuts. It’s really really tough to win multiple majors. I think Jack’s record will last forever

Agree on Jack's 18 not being matched, throw in his 19 second places and you just have to marvel at his career.

Thanks!!!!!
I thought I was out of contention yesterday when one of my guys was, "Stinking up the place." I guess you never know.
I'm looking forward to the Breeders Cup.

Congrats. But that's hard to say to a Steeler fan....As a Cowboy fan, I go WAY back with the likes of Bradshaw, Swann, Jack Ham, etc....But I'm not bitter...lol...
