Key occasions
A few doubtlessly important early strikes. Jon Rahm, who has been woefully out of types within the majors since defecting to LIV, however is after all taking a look his previous self this week, has birdied 1 and 3 to transport to -4. He’s joined there via Bryson DeChambeau, whose major-championship shape, in contrast, has arguably been boosted since his transfer to LIV. He guides in a 30-foot right-to-left swinger up 1 for birdie, and to get off to a flier.

-6: Pavon, Fitzpatrick, Kim
-5: Homa, Scheffler
-4: Rahm (4), DeChambeau (1), Thorbjornsen, Bezuidenhout, Fox, Smalley, Poston, MacIntyre, Stevens, McCarthy, Gerard
The get started of nowadays’s play was once behind schedule via thunderstorms, and so the tee occasions had been put again via three-and-a-half hours, and switched from two-balls to three-balls on break up tees.

But now, because of the vagaries of the split-tee gadget, they’re now not teeing it up till 6.38pm BST, so this weblog could have some BONUS HOT RORY ACTION that it in a different way would have overlooked out on. Yay! Yay? We’ll see, he’s been up and down this week and no mistake. He’s most probably too a long way off the tempo anyway, however he’s come again from reputedly unimaginable scenarios at Quail Hollow ahead of, so let’s write not anything off simply but. It is Moving Day, in spite of everything.
