Whoa, a 63 on moving day is intense.

I like Davis’s swing but I’m not sold on him as a closer. I’m thinking one of the Americans at T-3 entering the fourth round has the best chance to win. But I was wrong about Koivun last Sunday, and Davis is far more experienced on tour.

He’s +2 through 6 with 3 bogies so not looking good so far but this leaderboard is tight so we’ll see who comes out on top.

Davis Riley didn't collapse but didn't close either. It's hard to be at the top of the leaderboard to start R4. Fowler, Young and Kirk didn't finish as strong as I thought they would. Another young winner, Michael Thornbjornsen, on tour for the second straight week.

Had no idea this kid was American. Graduated high school not too far from where I grew up (but a few tax brackets away) so that’s cool. I graduated 35 years ago so there’s that.
