2016 Dean & DeLuca / The COLONIAL

[Frankensteins Monster]

It's pronounced Dee Loo Sha? I've never heard that last name pronounced like that. It's always Dee Luke Ah.

[doublepar93]

Spieth looking like he's more relaxed today, and not putting quite so much pressure on himself. Several smiles, and laughs between himself and Greller.

What's up with the golf channel going to the LPGA Tour event with only a couple holes left? I understand programming and such, but come on, it's not like people were anxiously awaiting the LPGA coverage to start at 6pm CST.

Not to mention that the LPGA coverage is not even live.

I was being serious. I like the LPGA and went to the pro am yesterday to watch them play. Plus the coverage has Lexi Thompson and Charley Hull playing together. I'll take that over gee golly Matty any day.

Hey I get it. Some of them are easy on the eyes, but there's so many other options to get that kind of entertainment. When I'm in the mood to watch golf, I want to watch the best players in the world. BTW, I had to google Charley Hull. Never even heard the name before.

I'm usually the same way, but LPGA coverage is usually pretty good and makes it worth a watch.

 

As for Charley Hull, she plays quick, hits it long, and plays blades.

[BearQ]

Lahiri is well known overseas and a very complete player. I see him doing well on a tight and short track like colonial. He's won and played on some of the narrowest courses imagineable on the Asian tour.

 

Do it for the brown boys lahiri

[Stensons3Wood]

Emiliano Grillo out of the gates nicely. He's been a little quiet lately. I love watching him play.

 

His wife is a dime ...

[Frankensteins Monster]

Another weather delay.

[DON SVO]

Another weather delay.

 

Yeah, we've been getting hammered here in Fort Worth the past months by rain. I don't mind it (low, low water bill!) but it's getting tiresome.

Really? You should have watched her in the 2013 Solheim cup. I'm surprised she hasn't had more success.

[cardoza]

So how long is this rain delay? PGA tour website says three hours, but there are 7 AM (central) tee times that still haven't gone off.

[Holy Moses]

The caddies can wander the entire clubhouse this week. Is the Colonial trying to get in the Open rota?

[MattyO1984]

Spieth seemed a lot more comfortable on the course today compared to last week. Should be interesting to see how he holds up over the weekend. With Day on a tear and Rory winning last week I'm hoping that he can get some game back and help make the summer even more interesting.

He's playing well. It's amazing that this course has held up over the years Without really changing the original layout

[PGArox]

Pretty nice leaderboard. Should be a fun weekend if the weather cooperates.

You mean they didn't have to stand outside in the storm and hold clubs up in the air ?? What a difference a year makes.

What happened at the Honda Classic wasn't right

[PGArox]

Typical of a Colonial leaderboard, it is tightly packed. We have 19 guys within four strokes of the lead.

[PGArox]

Martin Piller not feeling too much pressure, huh? :)

Jordan is just making it hard on himself with some of these shots today.

[PGArox]

Tom Hoge on 59 watch.

[PGArox]

Hoge bogeys the long tough 4th. End of 59 watch. :)

Yes, and that makes for a very interesting event to watch.

[StuartRS]

Great round for Kuch. Jordan certainly looks like he has got his feel back.

[pingizzle]

I had a chance to go watch this morning for a couple of hours. What an awesome course. The fairways and greens are as impressive as I have ever seen. Conditions were damn near perfect. Love these old style tracks.
