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.
It is Moving Day at the John Deere Classic.
CT Pan and Aaron Rai are tied for the lead at 14-under after they carded 8-under 63s.
TPC Deere Run is giving up so many birdies. The players have made 1,352 birdies and 35 eagles through 36 holes, more than 13 tournaments in total. If this pace remains, it could see the most birdies in a 2024 event.
Brew a pot of coffee, grab some breakfast, and settle in as we get you ready for the third round of the John Deere Classic.
