The kinder, gentler USGA

After following the players for the first few holes, it is clear that conditions are easier than they have been all week.

Most tees have been moved up a bit, or at least kept where they had been. Nothing is back to the tips. What's more, flags that hang over the grandstands are limp for the first time all week.

The bottom line is that the USGA seems to be going the kinder, gentler route, and even the weather is making for much more manageable conditions for Sorenstam and Hurst.

The two, both of whom play quickly, also are flying around. This will not be a 5:15 or 5:30 round as was the case all week. Seveny five minutes in the two players are on the seventh green.
