    Dustin Johnson now +4 through 6. Closes with 2 par 5's on back. This has all the makings of 39-31 to get right back in it.
    Rory with an uninspiring birdie-free 74.

    Johnson +6 through 11.

    Fear not. He has this waiting at home to heal his wounds.

    I clicked on the PGA leaderboard, but apparently they directed me to the Greater Greensboro Open leaderboard.

    It rained all night and is still raining. They had to suspend play to squeegee the greens. A good setup for an accurate iron player, that is to say, Stenson.

    This track will give up low scores galore now. Someone could shoot 62.
    Please God....let someone shoot 62.

    Watching coverage on pga.com......saw Bubba hit his shot in 13, and Kratzert said there was mud on the ball......why would they not be playing lift/clean/place?....(or in the words of Jack Nicklaus......lift/clean/cheat)

    It's not like it just started raining this morning........

    Can't stand to watch Jordan Spieth play. He seems like a real nice guy. But my God.......hurry up and hit the ball.
    Every shot Spieth hits, it takes about 20 seconds for him to pull the trigger. On the other side, it takes Bubba about 4.......has to be driving him nuts.

    He just hit one into the left hand lettuce........took 7 practice swings with his club.......then changed clubs........and took 4 more........

    Kevin Na and Ben Crane just smiled and doesn't know why.

    No doubt it's the biggest problem with his game. I'm as big a fan boy of Spieth as there is but ... HIT THE FLIPPIN' BALL ALREADY.

    Good 67 and he's in the mix for now.

    Mickelson might just take himself completely out of contention just with the first hold on Day 2. He hits OB right, then 40 yards to the right. Hitting 4, he ends up either in some trees or in someone's back yard, though we're told he's not OB again.
