play at TPC Southwind a little bit of time ago Hideki matam I'm Steve Sans pleased to be alongside Kurt byman one of the co-leaders look at this shot he's had success here no surprise to see him playing well what Xander shley birdied the first hole and a birdie at four for Birdie on the first ho you really don't even have to read so ADI is the first man to reach 12 underpar Bird's the first and another good one from the six-time winner on the PGA tour unlap for birdie winner at the AMX as an Amer Jason day has the best round going of anybody on the golf course and he is second at the par 4 17th he's already five under going under those limbs whole location in the back part of the green that's getting it done right there going to keep hit him a little firmer Sam Burns now for birdie oh yeah Will Z Tores Champion here couple of years ago all the goodbyes continue bunker shot was fantastic yeah he was down in the flat which made it very doable and he took care of it almost hul it made it look [Applause] easy oh what a hole what a well played bar five wow great read just a perfectly played hole two-time major Champs Ander shley for bir does it take the left it does and he's very good at it which I think is one of the more underrated skills for these PGA Tour players out here oh nice call B oh wow Xander Schley trying to make some Saturday noise here in Memphis he just kind of working his way up there's another one that gets him to 3 under on his round today just working his way Sam Burns up beautiful Tempo looks good from my angle oh yeah looks good from any angle full finish sticks of finish certainly been very inconsistent throughout the morning man burns pours in another one yeah with these zoa Fairways you can spin it just attack right here it's on a good line oh excellent sure [Applause] is that's what he tried to do not cutting oh got a nice kick off the tree though unbelievable that was heading into the bunker guys a little veteran Moxy Sam Burns now to tie for the lead yep guys he's walking him in out here [Music] yeah a ball striking clinic right now Damon as we see the par three 11th for the first time today Harris English beauty that is the toughest ha location on this green that this is a really aggressive shot oh chance to take the lead all by himself let's see what he does with this nineiron [Music] posing and no Wonder almost hit the flag stick oh back of the cup Tom Kim joins Smiley who's in the 50th position on the happy hour yesterday be happy about that one amelon Ogo a moment ago the Argentine from off the green it's looking good really good broke left just in time Terry Ganon Brad Faxon with us as well and we go out to the ninth Terry on to go Scotty sheffler on the way here the approach couple of Bogies and a birdies so far for Scotty oh my God almost went in the hole a second shot to 13 check in on Xander shawley at seven under big drive up the left side for Xander perfect angle there we go oh yeah right over it just earlier at the 10th Xander Schauffele probably the easiest hole location on the green and the holes playing the easiest it has all week shot here we go chance to get back on track live looked like it settled down a little bit he's going to have try to pick this clean eyes going up and down which indicates a good shot that's exactly what hii delivers earns a trip here to 10 Burns needs something good to happen after the last three holes and he just saw birdie land in the first ho he plays without the driver didn't need it here at 10 it's plenty well there's your inside 15 foot approach B Victor hin had one about half this distance on the same line and missed it on the left side of the hole we can see on camera here how dark this grass is growing here so the grain might be going a little left as well nicely I totally agree this is May one of the most difficult places that you can be in south wind oh come on how good is this oh man is he going to save this one as well good chance this a moment ago from the bunker at seven he got off to a great start made was four under plan 18 then made a double oh oh indeed he hold it for birdie three Bogies a double at 11 and Hallelujah third for Xander shley at the par five 16th eight under seven back and has some juice on that one two time major champion this year making it look easy should be cutting towards the flag let's see if he gets the number right oh he did he hammered that drive for 160 feet of putts in the second round best of his career he said this one breaks left two in a row yeah there you go uhoh that's what he does fact title and he's in good position to do that Dunlap who's had those shots off the T go right is going right at it here at 14 can Mama extend the lead yes he can walked it in havin for birdie yeah looks so different than we've seen for much this year back to 15 McCarthy ready yeah right at it that was right at [Applause] [Music] it just to the right a little [Music] bit good that broke more what about this bunker shot it's on an up slope here I think he's going to try to show off here and throw it all the way to the hole ah he did just that he been doing a lot of showing Denny McCarthy off you want to fly it all the way back there John but you don't want to fly it over the screen you're trying to cut something it's actually turning over a hair don't you get the sensation or the feeling right now that Victor Hollins will be around the next two weeks bested up at times today but he's figured out a way to score really puted well all day and there's his latest birdie Justin Rose and Nick dun had fighting to make the top 50 now it's part of the entertainment value of these playoffs did Billy horel come into the conversation he's waving me down McCarthy looking to get that putter heated up like it was yesterday Burns birdie attempt at 16 he's rolling oh man he just walks that one in 17 Denny McCarthy drove it in the right rough had to played out to the Fairway this lengthy par oh yeah yeah go there now Fort par AI well he's the best Strokes gained around the green this season and what an up and down man is that impressive dunlap's third at 18 while we were away guy's been Houdini today and it looks like he's going to pull another one off just a routine pitch here and it looked routine it's be a tap in par for McCarthy guy to catch when he's got the outright lead going into the final round on tour tough to having the shadow Over the Hole here he's closed out to win it each time he's held the outright lead
