Way nicer day for the final round....sunny and warm.

Hopefully Conners not being in the last group helps him just focus on each shot and stay near the top on the back 9 where his ball striking abilities can be a difference maker....and as always with him, the short stick is steady.

I expect Conners will have a sold day and I think the conditions will allow him to attack some holes and score some birdies.

That Conners/Bryson grouping is going to be awesome. I hope they get a lot of coverage because those are two of my favorite golfers.

This final round coverage is horrible. I'm watching more commercials than golf. Seems like they play commercials between every four shots. Awful stuff.

Not that Koepka owes us anything, but three holes in and looking like this final round is gonna be a snoozefest.

Yeah was hoping for a Conners win, but at the very least a battle. Golf is a sport that goes from a great Sunday viewing to turning it off when someone runs away.

Maybe Koepka does owe us some interest? Disaster on 6 and we could be tied shortly.

Well it's not looking like a runaway at least; but shame Conners is having a bad day.
Am I mistaken, or does he do this a lot on Sundays?

Scheffler +800 live odds feels like great value (yes, I just bet it lol).

Friggin Koepka. That’s one of the best sand shots I’ve seen

Probably over now, Hovland just can’t make anything on the greens.

A straight dunk hole in one is insane. At least persistenting with Block even as he’s a non factor finally yielded something.

Hovland just made literally the same bunker shot as Conners yesterday into the bunker face. That'll be game over. Koepka has it now.

Hovland buries his ball into the same sand trap lip that Conners did yesterday. That pretty much gives Brooks the victory now.

Not even like it was that hard of a shot either, just couldn't handle the pressure. But this is who Koepka is, hates golf for pretty much 48 weeks a year and then turns into prime Tiger the other four weeks. Might have had a shot at double digit majors if not for his knee problems.

Yep if there's one player that is built to play LIV and still challenge as best in the world at majors its koepka. Suits him perfectly.

I mean it's kind of how he was treating the pga tour anyways. Really happy for him after seeing that netflix episode on him. He's just different.

What an amazing story and finish for Michael block. Shanked his approach, they spent time moving the crowd just so he could attempt to get back.

He nails a wedge shot to within 10 feet and makes the critical par putt to get into next year's pga championship. Simply amazing

I feel for him because he has to deal with that wife of his.

Pretty happy a LIV guy is going to win though. I love the conflict!

What a great story Michael Block is.
I know he's a pro & not quite one of us; but it feels like you're watching an average guy out there pull off a miracle golf story.
