    I have a feeling it's going to be Dustin's day. Just can't see Clarke holding him off.

    Can also see Fowler backsliding today.

    Would love to see Lefty get into the mix.

    You might be right. Weather is vicious. Fowler dressed in his Tampa Bay Buccaneers gear.

    Lefty making a charge. Three under through six. Three back of Clarke.

    And now he rolls in an eagle on seven, tied for the lead. Great stuff.
     
  5. This is great.
    Fate seems to be smiling on Clarke.
    And Phil's amazing run has hit a snag. Or two.

    Yup, on Phil. Great front nine, fizzling on the back. Like Tiger at Augusta. All the bounces going Clarke's way.

    Rickie Fowler wears orange on Sundays as an homage to his alma mater, Oklahoma State.

    Colors are a little different, but as colorless as my closet is, I might be persuaded to wear at least some of that stuff for the coin Puma is paying him.

    Phil's runs always seem to hit a snag or two or ten, don't they?

    With a few notable exceptions, of course.

    Hopefully the Champions Tour will be kinder to him in a few years. He's a good guy and deserves some success.

    And Dustin Johnson sails it OB from the middle of the fairway and an iron in his hand. Wow.

    Phil looks like he wants a helicopter to swoop in and send down a rope ladder to take him off the island. Full retreat.

    It's all over but the shouting now, unless the Bjorn bunker becomes the Clarke bunker.

    Good for Darren Clarke barring some surprising changes.
