    Clarke's 5 shot lead to start the day is history. Mickelson staging a memorable comeback; -5 through 7 to tie :eek:

    Mickelson is playing entirely out of his mind right now. 6 under through 10. Practically everyone else over par.

    How disappointing, where's Tiger when you need him.

    It just occurred to me: Golfers don't use grass to judge the wind direction anymore. When did this change?

    When you have flags whipping at a much greater height, that ultimately works better than throwing grass in the air. OTOH, I assume you're kidding with that question.

    Clarke didn't have a 5 shot lead to start the day, he had a 1 shot lead over Dustin Johnson.

    No, I was serious. Flags never stopped a player before from using the grass. Maybe it's just that the younger kids made a trend and stopped doing it.
