Almost ends his round with an albatross. Heads into Sunday at 24 under, so much for a letdown for 2016. Golf is in a good place right now.

That 18th hole is deceivingly downhill. I made a birdie there after nearly "whiffing" on my tee shot. I put my second one in play down the fairway and then hit a 3wood a little thin but, with the severe downhill slope, it carried all the way to the apron and rolled up to about 15 feet. I love watching this tourney.
 
Second player ever to finish 30 under in a 72 hole tournament, only won by 8 shots. He will next play in Abu Dhabi. He'll be getting a nice appearance fee to make that trip.

This is going to be a fun year of golf. I am a huge golf fan so I get excited regardless but the casual golf fan should be as well. I think Day and Spieth are going to have some epic battles this year. The thing I love about Jordan is he knows his swing is good and is not trying to change things to gain distance or anything like that. He is going to tear up Augusta again and make another run at the grand slam.

I expect Rory to be ready to play this year as well

It should be interesting
 
The Ritz Kapalua Course is almost a putt-putt one for PGA Players and while what Spieth did this past weekend was amazing, almost no one watched it on TV and most now just ignore any and all tournaments not named Majors.

Can't wait for the Masters in April...that's when the real fun begins.

Maybe.

It's also a European Tour event and, undoubtedly, some of his endorsement contracts require him to play a certain number of European Tour events.
 
Jordan seems so well centered for a young phenom. I love the way he grinds even when in the lead, and how he admires his younger sister who has a disability.
