The weather played its part yesterday with the late starters having to put up with the wind. 18 of the top 20 played their rounds in the early benign conditions. One of those was Big Ernie

My fellas all started late in the day apart from Chopra who was going along nicely before he decided to get himself disqualified at the 17th for an illegal drop! Plonker. Verplank is level and Davis Love is +1 after a bad back 9.

Hopefully the late starters today get the worst of the weather and come back to the rest of the field a bit. Must be said that Big Ernie is looking good at this stage though.(Currently 7/4)
