Distant Doonhamer Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 The PGA Tour warms up for it's flagship event next week with the AT&T Byron Nelson named of course after one of the all time greats. TPC Craig Ranch in Texas is the venue, decent field as there's quite a few based in Texas. The course, a Tom Weiskopf design isn't anything special, known more for the excellent TPC facilities here. This will be a doddle, a nice easy warm up before next week, winning score between 25 and 30 under imo. Also, please restrain yourself from launching something at your TV after hearing the commentators pronounce Craig as Kregg for the hundredth time. Stoopid muricans. Certainly looks like you are correct re the course being easy. First round heading towards completion and the guys at 3 under are currently tied 75th. The cut after round two looks like being 7 or even 8 under, certainly no worse than 6 under. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Laird is one of the ones who isn't after a 3 birdie, 3 bogey level par round. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Distant Doonhamer Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 MacIntyre and Hill both right in the mix at the end of round 3. Tied 2nd on 9 under, one behind Eddie Pepperell who is sole leader. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really good 2nd round of 66 for Laird to move to 6 under and a good chance of making the cut. The cut live prediction data suggesting only a 4-5% chance of the cut being as low as 7 under though I suspect that will change. Knox just starting his 2nd round now. He’ll need to at least match yesterday’s 3 under round to make the cut. https://datagolf.com/live-predictive-model 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant round of 64 by Lee Westwood today to get to 9 under.Birdies 14 to go to -7.Currently 63 players at -6 or better. 27 others are on -5 where the cut line is just now but with some of them still having plenty holes to play it won't be a surprise if it moves to -6. Plenty of players sweating it out in the clubhouse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 It's a packed leaderboard at the Belfry heading in to today's final round of the British Masters. Hill and MacIntyre 1 off the lead but with 21 players within 4 shots of Eddie Pepperell on -10 it should be a good final day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Bob nearly slamdunks at 7, but ends up almost running into the water as a result. The 4 leaders are currently on 11 under, 4 more at -10, another 4 at -9, with the top 20 all -7 or better. This could be a brilliant afternoon's viewing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comparatively poor back 9s from both Hill and MacIntyre hitting 36 when just about everybody else in contention was hitting 33 or 34. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
