Welcome to Playing Through’s morning ritual — Golf Talk Today.
Each morning will feature a Golf Talk Today, where the crew will discuss various elements throughout the PGA Tour, LPGA, LIV Golf, and more.
Today marks the final round at the John Deere Classic.
Davis Thompson took the lead on Saturday after his impressive 9-under 62, which got him to a 21-under total. The former Georgia Bulldog looks to win his first PGA Tour event at the same place that sparked Jordan Spieth and many other players’ careers.
TPC Deere Run continues to give up massive amounts of birdies. The players have made 1,681 birdies through 54 holes, more than 24 tournaments from earlier in the season.
With a chance of scattered thunderstorms, the PGA Tour chose to have players go off split tees for the final round to avoid any delays hopefully.
Brew a pot of coffee, grab some breakfast, and settle in as we get you ready for the final round of the John Deere Classic.
