BMW Championship Round 1 Recap, Round 2 Preview - Hideki leads at Olympia Fields (8/27) Aug 28, 2020

Show notes

It was chaos and carnage at Olympia Fields for round 1 of the BMW Championship. On this episode we’re talking about the tough conditions and course setup on Thursday. Was last week’s tournament at TPC Boston maybe just a little too easy? Hideki Matsuyama is your solo leader after 18 holes. He has the ball-striking skills, but can that translate into staying power (9:28)? Tiger Woods struggled at the end of his round by going bogey-bogey-bogey over his final three holes. What is there to make of Tiger’s Thursday and can he make it over to East Lake (16:50)? We wrap with our top players to watch on Friday, conditions like this allow the cream to rise to the top, who do we have confidence in heading into the second round (21:15)?
