It's hard to find an angle to this. Fleetwood - he looks a bit too mentally fragile for me and this is going to be tough. Might back him for first round leader though. Rahm won by six in similar conditions in Ireland a couple of weeks ago - that's probably the best current form. He's young though. Does he have enough to get him home over the back nine on Sunday? Garcia has been picking and choosing when he plays and is in good form this year when he's turned out. I'll go for Rahm and Garcia - two Spaniards - experience and inexperience but both very talented.
Spieth's certainly started to show some form again. I'm still hoping Westwood can put 4 good rounds together for the first time in years. He's always there but one round always ruins it.
Am sticking with the Spaniards outright but am having a few fivers on the first round leader. Best conditions might be very late in the day so given that Schauffele, Dodt, Li, McCullen and Munoz are big prices and promising sorts, hopefully one of them will give me a run for my money tomorrow.

Schaeffle has been trending well. Won two weeks ago
Despite the comical clothing I like Poulter. Always honest in his assessment of his performance and a talented flair player.
Also thought Poulter would do well as he appears to be getting back to his best after injury knocked him back for more than a year. Think Paul Casey is another one to watch, been starting to find some form this year in the majors and usually pretty steady when the wind and rain are around.
Looks like being a real 'game of two halves' this one. Conditions today and tomorrow so much better than the first two days. Wouldn't be surprised to see the course record go today - currently 63.
Spieth obviously in the van now and if he has a driving Saturday then I doubt that he'll be caught, but he's not infallible. But someone needs to go sub 65 to get right into this - there's a few candidates going down to level par - McIlroy, Watson and Matsuyama seem the most likely to burn it up later. Poulter was very good yesterday and it will be interesting to see whether he can step it up in these conditions - same for Kuchar. However Spieth could of course turn it into a procession today if he really gets going.
