Shane gone out to +5. It's tough out there, but as soon I saw him getting that double last night, I knew it was over.

Eta: it's just the morning wave that's gone so far, but the cream is rising to the top; of the 11 players currently under par, six are already major winners. Three of those are previous winners of the US Open.

Rory was 3 under and playing well until he duffed 3 chips in a row on 9 and 10, both bogies/

He is up and down like a yoyo now. 3under,1 under 2 under than 1 and then 2 under again.

Travelers Championship

Another Sunday back nine collapse from Lowry. He has a serious mental block at this stage. He was never going to win, but a good top 5 was entirely within his grasp. He was going along nicely, one bird on the front, no bogeys. Two more birdies on the 11th and 13th, then boom. Three bogies in five holes.
