It’s so dark at Valhalla that you can’t really see where the golf ball is going at this point. But there’s just one hole left to play so we’re seeing something unprecedented. The last two groups of Phil Mickelson and Rickie Fowler followed by Rory McIlroy and Bernd Wiesberger are basically playing the 18th as a foursome. McIlroy, shortly after making a birdie to go up two on the 17th green, walked up on the 18th tee and asked if he could hit his drive right as Rickie and Phil walked off the tee box. He asked for the thumbs up and then ripped one as the twosome ahead waited off to the side.

And up two, McIlroy nearly made it interesting by hastily ripping a drive into the water. His ball stayed out of the hazard by a yard, thanks to all the rain that soaked the course earlier in the day.
