Today isn't much better for her, +2 through 11 holes to be at -2 and T21. I was hoping she could get top 6 for the each way bet bet but that looks out of reach unless she comes home with 4/5 birdies. The way she is playing, no chance
The blokes have finished round 3 with Im leading outright, 1 ahead of John Huh and a further 1 ahead of Tom Kim.
Fast starts for Hatton and Poston both -3 on their rounds to be at -8 along with Aaron Wise but it looks like Im and Kim for me are my best hopes.
After starting with an 8 on Thursday, he wins the Wyndham Championship by 5 strokes from Sungjae Im and John Huh.
Kim becomes the first player in history to win on the PGA tour starting with quadruple bogey
Winning the Wyndham championship gains him a PGA tour card, which makes him eligible to play on the next 3 week in the FedEx cup playoffs. Something he only could have done by winning the last tournament of the year!
After completing round 3 and being 2 back, he shot an incredible 27 on the front nine to take the tournament from all rivals and he finished with a 61! He is quickly going up the ranks and was #34 in the world before this win. He'll be up in the 20s or better now and will even get a crack at the Presidents Cup.
Joonyung Kim, remember the name. He is going to be a star on the PGA tour.
21/22 season +239.72 units
This week +82.2
Regular season finish +321.92

The rest are at -6, -5 and -4 so I'm happy with how they are placed. Both Cantlay and Burns dropped a few shots coming in which was disappointing. But still well placed.
Good luck

I might be bias but Cam Young might be the one betting now at $10. Has been flushing it and has fixed up the driver. He was unlucky early with a few short misses for birdie but rallied late.
Rahm continues the putting woes and still shoots 1 under. I think he had a birdie look on every hole on the front nine.
It set up for an epic weekend

His closest challenger is my man Xander Schauffele with a 66 which was a good round but now finds himself an extra shot back at -10, albeit now in 2nd position. Cantlay who started 2 behind is now 7 behind after an even par round which included an eagle at the last hole, so it could have been much worse.
Rounds of the day go to Niemann and Fitzpatrick who carded 64s to be both at -9 in 3rd spot.
The only way Scheffler loses is if he.has a melt down somewhere. The number 1 in the world is stamping his authority on the year. I'm hopeful Xander can outscore him by 2 shots per day coming in and the only saving grace is that there are 3 rounds remaining.

As it stands Schauffele briefly had the lead with Scheffler and after 12 holes Scheffler holds a 1 stroke lead from X. He is a further 3 ahead of the field which includes a rampaging Rory, JT and Sunjae Im, all -6 and -5 for their rounds with only 1 or 2 to play. Scheff and Schauffele have holes in hand which was evident how important this is for them, given the final hole is an eagle chance and the last 3 holes are playing fairly easy. Schauffele finished round 2 birdie, birdie, eagle which put him squarely in line to challenge over the weekend, which he is doing . He has shot par or better in every round he has ever played at this course and looks to continue the trend. I would predict Scheffler and Xander be both around -21/22 at the end of round 3 with a 4 shot buffer.
If I had to choose one from the chasing pack, it would be Rory and then Rahm. Both are flying and going low on Sunday wouldn't surprise. A big Sunday coming up for all to finished the season.
For Rory to win, he needed the world number 1 to shoot the worst round of the day in round 4 and the biggest stud at Eastlake in the last 5 years, Xander, to go -1 for the whole weekend!
The restart was unbelievable. Rory birdies his last 2 holes in the third round to get to -18.
Scheffler plays his remaining 6 holes in 4 under. Schauffele shat the bed and played the same holes in +1.
Scheffler was leading by 1 at the restart, went into round 4 a massive 6 shots in front of the field at -23. He was 1.05 to win the FedEx Cup.
Because of Xander's finish to round 3, it out Rory in the final group with Scheffler. This I feel was important.
After 6 holes on round 4, Scheffler was back to only 1 up of Rory. They battled all the way home. Xander just did fuck all coming in and shot a 69 to finish at -19. Sunjae Im was absolutely charging home and also finished at -19, an herculean effort consider he started at -3 for the week. Scheffler bogies 15 while Rory nails a 10 footer for par to square it up. Rory then hits a 31 foot bomb to birdie 16 while Scheffler could only manage par. Scheffler putts the worst putt of the year on 17 from 6 feet for birdie to go into the last one back. Both found trouble and Scheffler had his chance, flying a bunker shot over the green and all but sealing his fate. Rory got relief from the grandstand and needed an up and 2 putts to win, which he did with ease.
Rory takes home 18 million for winning the Tour Championship with Im and Scheffler taking home 6 million each for T2.
Xander thankfully had a birdie on the back nine and got him 4th outright, which game me a cover for my bets this weekend.
To think, he was tied for the lead 3 holes before the rain delay and played the remaining 24 holes in even par....talk about penthouse to the shitehouse.
Rory was 40-1 after 2 rounds. He was still $11 at the start of round 4.
As I mentioned, I played safe this week and it paid off. Returned 30 units from 30 bet. I maintain Xander was the right play, based of history and for 2/3 of the tournament. But that's the way it goes. No harm no problem.
That concludes the PGA tour season for another year. The season restarts in 17 days at the Fortinet Championship, so a couple of weeks off and then back into things. All eyes now turn to the LIV golf announcements and who will be going across. Hopefully Cam Smith comes to his senses and doesn't go, but it looks a done deal. The 6 rumoured to go are Tringale, Mito Periera, Cam Smith, Leishman, and Niemann. This should all come out tomorrow.
Till then!
Well done on another successful golf season.
Go again next year.
Keep hitting the down the middle !!! =D>
