Hadwin moves up leaderboard at PGA Tour Championship

PGA Tour, Tour Championship leaderbaord https://www.pgatour.com/competition/2017/tour-championship/leaderboard.html

Adam Hadwin has added a -3 67 to his opening 71 to sit at -2 T18, 5 shots off the lead on this tightly packed scoreboard at this edition of the Tour Championship, the finale of the Fed Ex Cup playoffs.

The leaders at -7 are Paul Casey (67), Webb Simpson (67) and Justin Thomas (66) who is putting a capper on his career season, which includes the PGA Championship.

Going into the weekend, it's like a horse race with 20 horses rounding the clubhouse turn, all bunched together,

In fact by my count there are 19 players including Hadwin within 5 shots of the lead at East Lake, as they charge down the home stretch.

Jordan Spieth and Dustin Johnson are both at -3. Remember there are 2 events going on here. The actual tournament worth $1.8m to the winner, and the Fed Ex Cup final standings, where the winner wins a $10m bonus.

In that category 5 players have earned the right to win it all. Jordan Spieth (15th -3), Justin Thomas (1st -7), Dustin Johnson (15th -3), Mark Leishman (24th +2) and Jon Rahm (4th -6) win it all if they win this weekend.

Jason Dufner lost a ton of weight during his divorce proceedings, but is steadily gaining it back. He is currently T8 -5 68 67. During play yesterday he leaned over to pick his ball out of the hole, then stopped abruptly and walked off the green leaving his Titilest in the hole!!... Why you ask?... Well slo-mo revealed that Jason had ripped the arse out of his powder blue strides during the effort... 

Must have been the ones he bought in his skinny days....
