Saturday has dawned bright and sunny at TPC Sawgrass, just a slight breeze, cooler at 66*f (that's the high for the day.).Again ideal scoring for the early pairings. Cloud cover will take over as the day goes on with the breeze getting up from the NE.

The field is paired in two's, 80 players made the cut at -1. As the day/ weekend begins Rory (67 65) and Tommy Fleetwood (65 67) begin in the lead at -12, 3 shots clear.
Now remember these guys are Ryder Cup brothers in arms, and also remember Tommy's Ryder Cup partner Frankie Molinari won last week at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Here they are a little lad at 5'9" from Holywood in Northern Ireland, and another less celebrated at 5'11" from Southport, England both in their late 20's standing up on the first tee in the lead at the Players, in Jacksonville, Florida, a place their parents could only dream of going to on holiday.
They have already lived most of their dreams, fabulously wealthy by any standards, their parents and families all paid for, Rory has all the majors, Tommy's time will come to add to his trophy case which includes the Race To Dubai. This is the bond these guys quietly share, this is their British DNA as they walk together down these pristine fairway's in front of all the crowds and all the cameras. What a blast it must be, again !!
The opening pair went out at 8.10am EST, the final pair at 2.40pm. Tiger is already on course with Kevin Na and remember this week apart from the 7 at the 17th yesterday has been playing beautifully 70 71 -3, so expect him to post a low score as all eyes are on him this morning.
Corey Connors 72 70 -2 and Nick Taylor 73 69 -2 are the two Canadians playing this weekend.
