That sweater is BRIGHT. Isn't he sponsored by Vineyard Vines? He looks like whatever is in their window half the time (when he's not wearing a hoodies these days).
Greyson I think? Not sure if he also has a vineyard vines deal.

Nice comeback birdie for Rahm there after three putting 17.

this weekend will be fun. Tons of story lines.

don’t hate the idea of a washout today and 36 tomorrow for Easter.

If Thomas birdies 18, all the +3 are out. If he pars, he's in with all the +3s. With a bogey or worse, +3s are in, and he's out.

Cantlay off to a hot start. He’s pretty far back but Augusta seems like the kind of course that suits his game well.

DJ will be looking forward to the guaranteed purses on the Saudi tour after starting round 3 at +4 through 5 holes, including a birdie on 13.

Sportscenter also ran a great piece on Sam Bennett. Dude seems like he has quite a future – though it sounds like he’s hits the ball about 25 yards shorter than the top guys on average. So it will be interesting to see if he can up his game.

Brooks up by 3 now. And miles and miles and miles of everyone not named Rham.

Plenty of time still, but Brooks is locked in af.

I have seen 8 shots today that I have never seen before in the history of the Masters.

The conditions are truly brutal. Brutal for everyone, of course, but this is just impossible for these guys.

Except for Koepka, apparently.

Indeed.

This is over.
Don't count Rahm out yet. If he can hang in there and be within 4 going into Sunday he's got a chance. He's not basically the best golfer in the world for nothing. He'd need like a 65 to a 69 for Koepka, but he could do that I think. Weather permitting, anyway.

But Brooks is in great shape, obviously. Dialed in and healthy Koepka is a monster in the majors. Boooooo LIV, but whatever. Dude is great.

I'm going for a Koepka mush here to get some drama, don't give me this rational, measured analysis.

47 and rain. This is basically the same weather we’ve had here in Portland, OR the last six months.

Related - my game is not in good shape.

And the horn blows. The grounds crew literally couldn't keep up with the rain on 7 green.

Done for the day.

Tomorrow gonna be interesting. Its a 4 shot lead but Koepka has 12 ft or so for par tomorrow while Rahm is 9 ft for birdie.
