Stand back, this could get messy.

I really can't tell if I want to see Dustin redeem himself, Spieth go 3/3, or an amateur take a major.

If he actually ends up winning, how does that work? I wouldn't think the USGA rules would apply to this tournament but maybe it's the same in Europe?

Read an interesting article stating that weather delays in the Open Championship have only really happened in the last decade or so. People are hitting the ball further and to compensate they have sped up the greens so much that they're unplayable in the wind. They used to be like 6-8 on the stimp meter but now it's at least 10.

Last amateur to win a major was in 1933. Odds are if he pulled it off he would immediately go pro because sponsors would be all about that story. Tough thing is he wouldn't see any of the prize money.

Schneiderjans is on a loving tear :stare: 7 birdies and a bogey through 11

E: We're really likely to have two amateurs finish in the top 10 and one has a legit shot to win it. This is great

So if we have 3 amateurs finish really high, what happens to their share of the winnings? Does everyone else get a bit of a boost of theirs?

They get $0 and the prize money goes to the Professionals in their own order?
