Not a great day for those i mentioned above. Bit of work to do for the likes of Alker to make the cut, with the cut looking likely to be under par.
Lead currently held by two Aussies Hend and Griffin at -7 but local lad (and LIV reserve) Ben Campbell is up there at -6 thanks to a nice eagle on 18.

Lydia Ko finished T4 at the latest LPGA event in China
Scottie Scheffler wins his seventh PGA Tour title after demolishing the field at the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill. Next up on the PGA Tour is The Players in which Ryan Fox is also in the field.
Steve Alker is currently T2 at the latest Champions Tour event in Arizona
and if anyone actually cares Abraham Ancer won the lastest LIV event in Hong Kong -
Really hoped that Lyds was gonna kick on in R4 but didnt start too well yesterday. Tardy was a bit of a run away winner. Great last two rounds.

Kazuma declared PGA Aus order of merit champion with one tournament still to go.
Locks in his DP World Tour card after an awesome first season as pro (only turned pro in November), and also a starting spot at the Open! -
What a hole to dunk it!
-
Quite a run through 14 to 18 for Fox - bogey, bogey, eagle, hole in one, bogey
Pretty standard (other than the ace) for Foxy. His second 9 appeared more unusual.
Ended up -3 which is a good start as he hasnt gone too well so far on the tour this year. Favourable conditions out there so some hot scoring on day 1

How about hitting your ball into the water twice in consecutive holes then lose your composure...

I love it. I think having a historically good #1 is great for the sport. Scheffler isn't exactly a showman, but when he's this good I don't think it matters.
Watching him play the back 9 on Sunday at Augusta was art. I normally lose focus if a player is 3-4 up and running away, but I couldn't take my eyes off it. It was an absolute masterclass.
I also tuned in to the Chevron purely to watch Korda. I wouldn't have known it was on otherwise.
It's another reason that the Presidents Cup needs to be mixed gender. A Korda/Scheffler pairing would be unmissable.

I never knew that was talked about for President’s cup. I’d watch that.
I don’t really root for Korda or Scheffler when they play. They appear robotic which is a strength of theirs I guess. I have tried the Scheffler shuffle on the range though. My hip felt like it was going to dislocate more than doing the Happy Gilmour.
Golf has gotta be one of the only sports that is watchable that can have men and women competing fairly (obvs different tee positions though). Ultramarathon supposedly is genderless but is also a fairly joyless sport for the viewer. Can’t be bothered thinking of others. -
