Projected cut is now +3. Luckily, only one of my team is under that line (Stenson at 4 over) but a few, including Tiger, are flirting with it.

Last person I'd have expected to be last on my team is Tiger (prior to his restaurant news, totally shoulda listened to my gut), but he is looking to be the only one on my team watching with me at home. Way to go, Henrik!
PS...barring an utter collapse, if you don't have Koepka on your team, you aren't winning. A few of us do, so it comes down to our secondaries.

I thought I might have all six players miss the cut, but four actually made it -- Adam Long, Finau, Rory at +3; Aphibranrat rallied for +4. My team might win $100,000, in toto.
Tiger and Bryson missed. Tiger deserved to miss -- it's a wonder he didn't shoot 82 -- missed all but two fairways, couldn't putt worth a darn. DeChambeau was +6 after his first three holes Thursday and ended at +6 33 holes later.

I lost 2 of my 5, with Woods and Rahm stinking it up. I have Koepka, but so do a bunch of others so no back-to-back wins for me unless Day and Fowler shock the world. Probably not even then.
I like everything about the top of the leader board (I also have Koepka, Spieth and Scott), except that the weekend hasn’t even started.
I have Spieth and Fowler in the top 10 so there is a chance but my expectation is Koepka will walk away with the Championship this weekend.
Two of my golfers (Watson & Kisner) missed the cut.

I have Koepka, and lost Tiger. But Rory and Finau are light-years out at +3, and Phil isn’t much better at Even.
"Amazing what a minute can do."

Way to tank it, Phil

Who has Jazz Janewattananond?
And then there was Finau and his 79. Ugh.
"Amazing what a minute can do."
Whew...I was eyeing Koepka's choke job throughout the day. My final tally.
Team CB&B
Brooks Koepka - winner, 8 under
Jordan Spieth T3, two under
Matt Kuchar T8, one over
Adam Scott T8, one over
Henrik Stenson T48, 8 over
Phil Mickelson T71 tank driver, 12 over
Tiger Woods - Total loser
My "winning score" prediction was nine under. I was one off of my guess..thanks for missing a putt, Brooks.

I haven't done the math, but I think that Rogue won it with Koepka (1), DJ (2), Day (T23), Harding (T54), and Woods (MC). Just edging out CB&B who had more depth but lacked the 1/2 punch at the top.
