Here is the top T10 after 3 rounds. Bad weather is expected for round 4, so the players will tee off in 3somes tomorrow, which puts Els in the final group. Jerry Kelly hit a hole in one during round 3. Zach Johnson seems to be in fine form still, even after a very hectic post-Masters-win week!

There is a weather delay, due to high winds. All players have started, but the final group hasn't finished the 1st hole yet, as of 3:20pm. It looks like they won't be able to wrap this one up today.
On another subject, the announcers said that Ernie Els was at a point in his career where finishing 2nd wasn't enough for him anymore.
After last week's dismal Masters performance, and after finishing the Heritage on a lofty (almost glorious) note, 2nd place isn't all that bad.
I think Ernie Els expectations is to win tournaments and majors. Still a good showing but with the way he started out, I bet he's a little disappointed. Hopefully, this tournament was a sign of more good things to come.
