[KennyBanyeah]

Corey Conners in with a sweet 68. Tied for the lead at -4.

Fred Couples with a fine 71.

If Corey can keep the flat stick working on those bikini waxed greens (thanks Gary McCord), it could be a fun weekend.

Bernhard Langer is 67 years old and shot +2 on his opening round - That's crazy good.

That's always the question with Conners. He's very good tee-to-green.

I heard Pat Mayo on snet650 yesterday say youd be throwing your money away if you put it on Corey Connors so GO COREY!!!

Placed a small wager on Rose yesterday at 110/1. Never around at the end it seems like

Rory was in the landing area at the back of the 15th green and hit a chip shot across the green and into the drink. Yikes.

Edit: Making a 7 on the par 5 15th when you're back of the green in 2 is not ideal.

Edit #2: Rory ended his opening round at even par 72. The definition of leaking oil starting with his 3rd shot at 15

Very cool

Outside of a bad tee shot on 18 that cost him a bogey, this was a flawless and impressive round from Justin Rose yesterday.

 

[KennyBanyeah]

Rose up by 2 after coming home in 71 (-8).

Three closest pursuers are McIlroy, Douch-Sham-Bro and Conners at -6.

Shaping up to be a hell of a weekend with guys like Aberg, Scheffler, Lowry and Hovland at -5.

That is one hell of a leader board.

Why is Phil Mickelson dressed up like Seth Green from Cant Hardly Wait? He looks ridicilous. Tony Finau pulls off the Jordan high tops. Phil… not so much.

Do we still refer to Phil as FIGJAM?

By the way, good chance that Rory and Corey are playing together on Saturday.

Brooks Koepka making a snowman on 18 to miss the cut is *chef's kiss*

Ya know, it's not 100% true yet but it's looking like you can't spell irrelevant with L.I.V.

 

[puckhead]

Oof

That Zach Johnson two putt on 5 minutes ago was something

 

[Loco2]

Moving day off to a hot start. Zach Johnson has his best career Masters round to maybe be in the mix.

Dechambeau gains a stroke on 1.

McIlroy eagles 2 with a great chip in and is -4 through the first 3 holes.

 

[Loco2]

Rory now -5 through 5 with. 3-stroke lead on the whole field.

Justin Rose is looking a little done to me.
