Others wilt as Rose blooms

Writing from Lemont, Illinois
Saturday, September 17, 2011

Justin Rose is 12-under, a stroke better than he started, through 12 holes on Cog Hill's Dubsdread course.

The challengers aren't really challenging. Aside from Bill Haas, 9-under overall through 13 holes (and 3-under Saturday), nobody's making a move. Mark Wilson's dropped two strokes and stands 9-under after 13 holes, while Webb Simpson's 9-under through 12.

The weather is perfect, galleries are fuller, and the sun is shining. Aside from Luke Donald, who took another verbal jab at the Dubsdread layout after his 4-under 67, everyone seems to be happy.

Updates when needed, and a full report after the round.
