The big guns fired on Day 1 (aside from the English ones of course), more of the same today? Many seem to think the late starters will have the weather advantage but hard to say, lots of overnight rain so the early starters will have super soft greens and go flag hunting. Wind got up a bit in the afternoon Day 1 which you would think would happen again.

Added Peter Hanson at 60s and Jamie Donaldson at 170s to my team which after a great start early stagnated. Have a decent bunch at -1, Even and +1. Hanson been getting closer to winning a big tournament with numerous top 10s in majors and WGCs over the last 2 years, 60s is value after the start.

Good luck all.

I'll be hoping ZJ can keep moving forwards, as well as Jbe Kruger. ZJ looked fantastic yesterday, but I didn't see much of Jbe.

It wouldn't be right to say I hope Rory stalls, but I've layed off my bet at 11s so I won't be stoked to see him power up the leaderboard.

If Colsaerts and Sneds can push on it will be a weekend full of enjoyment, hopefully the morning boys are not at a disadvantage. And if they are, then enter the greatest of them all

By:

Free drop somewhere else in the bunker.....if no space then drop outside the bunker with a stroke penalty......or just hit the ball and take the water....water doesn't hurt.
