" . . .
Hidden in the barrage of birdies on Thursday was just how many different scores were out there. Two players shot 62, but two others shot 79. Fowler beat one major champion in his group, Jason Day, by 11 strokes and another, Justin Rose, by 14.

Variance in score, in lieu of sheer brutality, is the sign of a tremendous test, and LACC certainly provided variance. At the time Fowler and Schauffele finished, nobody was within five of their scores. There were two 62s but no 63s, two 64s but no 66s. Great ball-striking won the day and provided separation at the top of the boards.

What a contrast of the two sexes, 300 yd par 3 men, 475 p 5 fems. Walked the whole course at Meijer yesterday where Hagen, Palmer, Fowler and the wife and I once played ( 20 yrs ago next mo)
The gals can bomb it, I sure have a good taste of visiting Korea, Japan and China. Man there’s gals not even 4’11” bombing 275.!

DJ was 2 shots off the lead then made a dang snowman on the par 4 2nd. If he parred it he’d be tied with Rickie at -10.

Those prices are great @ciscokid. Similar to Augusta’s.
Folks got till June 21 to get in The Masters lottery for tix.
