Dukies on the 2025 PGA and LPGA Tours

Eight players at -5 now trail Danny Willett at -6. It seems inevitable that at least 1 or two guys will go lower than-6.

Plus, my earlier statement about The RBC winner automatically qualifying for the US Open was incorrect, unless I'm wrong about that!

Thorbjorn Olesen shot a 61 to go -9. Alex is tied for 6th at -5. Cristobal Del Solar just got to -9 after 14, so a 59 is possible for him. Par is 70, so he needs a -2 finish over the last 4 holes.

And yet Rory shot 71

Those guys that went really low today are gonna fade. If Alex stays steady and avoids a bad day, I think a -18 will win this and a -16 might.

And Del Solar stayed at -9.

Smalley has commenced his round and is Even through two holes.

Now +1 for the day and only two shots above the projected cut line of -2. Needs to get going…

Smalley birdies #6 to move back to Even for the day and -5 overall.

Smalley birdies #6 to move back to Even for the day and -5 overall.

And then bogeys #7 grrrr

 

[Bob Green]

Birdie on #8 and par on #9 to finish the front nine Even. Smalley needs some to step it up on the back nine.

 

[AGDukesky]

I had a bad feeling about this round

 

[dudog84]

So frustrating to watch him go from standalone 1 around noon yesterday to needing a birdie on 18 to make the cut. Maybe he'll shoot -10 tomorrow.

Consistency is what you need to be successful on the Tour. Alex has game, but lacks consistency.

Some days consistency isn’t needed, greatness is better

Small is good in golf, as in small scores? Shhhhh.

Are there going to be any Duke players in the field?
