Shane's cross after finishing with 2 bogeys but he is absolutely 100% right!!

I despise this carry on in all sports. It's particularly bad when a team wins a major trophy and instead of celebrating on the field with their teammates and fans, they are dragged off by some goon like Gabriel Clarke or Des Kelly. I have no doubts rights packages include rights to the players time but it should be delayed until they've completed celebrations. We already know they are delighted without them being asked!

Is it a bit too close for comfort going into the final round here for McIlroy.

If it had of been anyone else other than Bryson or maybe Scheffler I think he's comfortable.

Needs a strong start to settle him.

[Milltown Row2]

Bryson is decent and not just a big hitter, he's got better in the short game too, I actually like him, he's changed a bit..

I think for Rory to win is to not overthink it, apply the pressure when you can so that Bryson takes chances and makes mistakes..

But I'll be happy for Scottie to stay in top ten for my bet 

Can't wait to hear the bottling posts later and your man to come back online again

It should be a shootout between DeChambeau and McIlroy. Scheffler and Rory are currently the two best golfers in the world, and with Scheffler 7 shots behind it seems too far back even for him. I can't see anybody else on the leader board challenging on the last day at Augusta. As long as he keeps matching DeChambeau, his 2 shot lead should be enough.
The blow up in 2011 is ancient history now. If that is still affecting him he needs to talk to a mental health professional.

[Milltown Row2]

Think Conners has an outside chance, cause if these two start to flap he has an opportunity to take advantage

Us open collapse is recent tho. Rors got away with a few things yesterday and if the luck remains he's playing too well not to -3 under or so which should be enough

[Deerstalker]

Conners is not exactly renowned as a closer, so you can probably rule him out

This. When the heats really on he can still crack. I think Bryson takes it hope I'm wrong though

Big swede sitting nicely too

[gallsman]

Bryson got away with plenty himself. His iron play was atrocious.

[Milltown Row2]

Rory trying to be calm and focused but sounded a bit nervous, while Bryson looks like he's taken a pure coffee shot!

Bryson got away big time last night some of his chip shots and long putts on the back 9 were unreal. He was several under yet the way he was hitting his atrocious irons he should have been a few over

[jcpen]

Looking forward to this,though I've watched none of it thus far.
Hopefully Shane goes close, if not then best of luck to McIlroy.

[Sportacus]

Rory looks tense and yer man is c**k if the walk. Hope it's all show.

Thinking exactly same thoughts

[gallsman]

Bunker off the first tee for Rory and Bryson a good bit left. Gonna be a wild ride.
