That officer has a bad history as well
Grayson Murray!
RIP
There’s strong speculation that this was suicide. He had been battling alcoholism, anxiety, and depression. He withdrew after 16 yesterday. Only 30 years old. May Grayson RIP.

Memorial (a Signature event) end of round 1 leaders:
Hadwin -6 (Canadian golfer)
Scheffler -5
Schauffele -4
Aberg -4
Conners -4
Morokawa -4
Cut will be top 50 and ties along with those within 10 of the leader. This is the last event before the US Open.

Scheffler won his 5th out of the last 8 he has entered in this amazing year! The last golfer to win 5 this early was way back in 1980 (Tom Watson). All 5 have been with very strong fields other than the LIV golfers not being in the 4 non-majors.
Today’s round averaged a very difficult +3/75 (US Open-like)! Scottie actually was +2 for the day but that was just good enough to beat Morikawa by one.
Next up, the LIV guys rejoin the PGA Tour players for the US Open at Pinehurst 2 in NC! Is anyone here going?
If Scottie wins this…..

US Open (Pinehurst, NC) conditions to be quite different from the moist, breezy conditions of the PGA. The forecast is for sunny and hot (hottest Fri with ~95) with light winds. So, greens, which are shakes like upside down bowls, will be dry/very tough. Dewpoints mainly low 60s.
What up Phil 
Update: All 3 finished with same scores as noted above. I noticed that the PGA Tour’s website shows a +5 cut line, which would get Scottie and Tommy in. However, that is incorrectly based on an outdated rule that players within 10 of the lead, which is -5, make it. That rule was taken away for the US Open (unlike other majors). Thus, the +5 is wrong, at least as of now.
“Prior to 2012, the U.S. Open also implemented a 10-shot rule, where any additional players within 10 shots of the lead would also make the 36-hole cut. This rule was removed…”

Further update: Due to a high enough avg score today, the cut line is on the verge of soon falling from +3 to +4. But Scottie and would still need it to drop another to +5. That could still happen.
Update: Due to poor avg scores, projected cut line now down to +4 with +5 not at all out of the question! Will Scottie be saved?
*Latest: cut line just dropped to +5 meaning Scottie and others at -5 are likely going to make the cut!

Bryson for the W
Few more pics from my trip to the us open. Not than anyone cares just thought I'd post 
Every time I see that Payne statue, it reminds me of how we got wedged in that weekend and how cool it was for mid June
So far, ~30 players have started the 3rd round with an average of nearly +2 already on just an avg of 7 holes played. That’s indicative of very tough conditions.
Rd 1 and 2 each averaged +3.
Leaders: Aberg -5, Cantlay, Bryson, Detry: -4; Finau, Rory, Pavon: -3
Molinari made a hole in one on his last hole yesterday (9) to make the cut!

Course should be brutal today and tomorrow. I like the way they set it up. Let them eat in the first round or two, then turn the screws.
And about all they were given to eat in the first two rds were table scraps!
Of the favorites: Whereas Scottie has been disappointing, Aberg has been near perfect, especially in driving and hitting many of the greens. And Bryson has been impressive obviously.
It did turn out brutal with a +3 average. Considering that the two prior rounds were also +3 but with all golfers still playing (pre-cut), today’s was the most brutal yet.
Bryson is on fire at +7. He’s three ahead of Rory, Cantlay, and Pavon.
Rory was 2 ahead with 5 holes to play, but he missed short putts on 2 of the last holes. Bryson also missed a short putt for I think the first time the entire tourney. Bryson wins by 1 after a long bunker shot to within 4 feet! He scrambled all day from bad drives into the wire grass. His short game was outstanding!
