It was Bubba Watson’s day at the Barclays yesterday, as he shot a 2 under 68 to add to his opening day 65. Going into moving day, Bubba leads Henrik Stenson, Tony Finau, Zach Johnson and Jason Dufner by a single shot.
We’ve just tracked down The Golf Spiv for the first time since his Major success at Whistling Straights. Having backed winner Jason Day, and place returns on Grace at 80-1, and Koepka at 45-1, he’s still slurring his speech. Unfortunately all his winnings are now The Dog & Duck's August profit margins...
He took his time but he got there. Jason Day's major road to glory: From drunk 12 year old to PGA champion...
So the leaders haven't quite gone out yet, but it hasn't stopped some awesome shots being played already.
It was what Jim Ross would call a "slobber knocker" of a day at Whistling Straights as birdies were banged in left, right and centre. It was a battle royal for the top spot, fought for ferociously, with the lead changing from one moment to the next.
Irish eyes were smiling on a thrilling final day of action at the Bridgestone International, and after several twists and turns a surprising winner came out on top.

It was Danny Lee who was the first round leader with a sensational five under par 65. The New Zealander mixed seven birdies with two bogeys to top the leaderboard. After already winning the Greenbrier Classic last month the in form 25 year old looks like could go all the way and win his first World Golf Championship at Firstone Country Club.
Given the length and par combination, it doesn’t take much of a genius to work out there are some long par 4’s round the South Course at Firestone, and length off the tee is certainly important. That said, when scrolling through the database, the archives actually point to more of a rounded stats player as well as the good old “bomber” type.
Melissa Reid shoots a third round 69 to finish tied 8th going into the last day. Go Mel!!!!! -8 (Jin-Young Ko and Teresa Lu) is leading with Suzann Pettersen breathing down their necks at -7...
