The PGA TOUR heads to Florida this week for the Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches at PGA National. Rory McIlroy returns to the field before a busy Florida stretch that will also include starts at the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard and THE PLAYERS Championship. This will be his 10th start at PGA National where he’s claimed victory once in 2012 (holding off Tiger Woods) and finished second in 2014. Chris Kirk returns this week and looks to successfully defend his title – something that hasn’t been done here since Jack Nicklaus in 1977-78. Kirk claimed victory at The Sentry to open 2024 and has been consistently strong at PGA National since 2021 with a T25 and a T7 preceding the win. Rickie Fowler will also be in Florida this week. The nearby Jupiter resident won at PGA National in 2017 and was the runner up in 2019. Others to look out for are Matt Fitzpatrick, Tom Kim, Shane Lowry and Justin Rose.

Min Le a moment ago at the 13th yeah really narrow Fairway here the shortest Par Four here big personality a lot of game and oh he makes it from the Fairway about that for minw Le there you go ni hardi now his second at the fifth that popular

Spot down there short right hello yeah a Nick Hardy party at the fifth it is a birdie you see he’s aim pretty far right here aggressive line woo what a start very tidy cashmir Keith no cashmere needed on this uh Florida morning this whole last year saw 14 Eagles wow and there is

Another and our trackman technology is presented by titlist the number one ball in golf and how about that from Novak are you serious Steve Scott Pavan still looking for that first birdie here’s this back right hole location has to go up and over the trees and now moments ago at 11 oxay

Batia from the right [Applause] side really oh good looking shot in there weather’s going to be pretty fair and the roughs is down yeah this from just 86 out another beautiful shot and this is the time to get it done uh when you have a morning tea time these benign conditions I mean

It is going to get difficult out here it is going to get windy winds estimated even up into the 20s earlier got a lot of respect for these guys no doubt Harry Hall no you can’t make it from down there from way downtown take you back to part three

15th birdie at 17 for Austin Well Done Chris Kirk over on the leftand side here his second and we got a closeup view that Li yeah not a bad lie at all to it right at it oo what a shot out of that dormant Bermuda rough as you could see the

Coloration of the grass was different the rest of the golf course is overseed with Ry so nap continues to play well but no one better so far than Chad Ry he led the PLAYERS Championship after the first round last year with a 64 that produced that would be no clubbing off

The two guys alongside you this is stick to your own game right here this is super aggressive out to the right Lowry for birdie okay Shane gets it into red numbers and we’ve seen a lot of gators on the course how about this Florida Gator look look at you fill her Up the college at Oklahoma State this is for birdie yeah three in a row he made a bomb on 17 little tap in kind of on 18 and then that one there this is for birdie here at the par three to get him in the red numbers just off the green using the

Putter oh all right just wow that was the flag stick helper there Rory maroy here at this venue for the first time in six years since he Rose to number one for the first time and held off Tiger Woods first time here since he did that and he’s gone from bouncer to playing

With a number two ranked player in the world alongside maoy today Jake knp who won the Mexico open at beon last week for his first PGA Tour win and just his ninth start okay Harry hall for Eagle delivered back to gets him to five under he’s now one shot back of Novak who

Stands alone at top of the leaderboard and six under Peter malady my first in Strokes gained attitude trying to sauté that finish what a shot from Mady from one great ball Striker to another certainly Shane Lowry a great iron player on Q it’ll be a tap

In almost some four hours ago and he just banged in another Ben on from way downtown bang to four under you don’t see many putts hold from down there in that spot Cameron young ready to go at the second golf swings looking really tidy obviously always has that pause at the

Top oh look at this shot oh brilliant C young forever young still great opportunity though on this very difficult Par Four and the door is open for Austin EO back to 5 [Applause] under let’s see what CT is cooking here at 15 oh the pen trackman technology is by number one ball in

Golf Whitney last man in trying to make the most of uh his walk around PGA National smartly played it to the middle of the green here at 17 great two from way downtown dangerously close to the Penalty arey to the left of this Fairway at six but the

Perfect angle if you’re ever going to get it just trying to hold that got to be just a little eight iron or something into there oh brilliant sh mroy shot of the a here at six Young Buck from 173 a little above the feet and we do

Have a little right to left wind which should help this ball carve towards the hole oh there we go Hayden puley hello now pon from off the Fairway ball sitting down just a touch here at eight he likes it a be good oh it is

Mass CI pavon he’ll have a chance to get it to four now Cameron was in the trees up over the Ridge and saves his par that big time right there what a four from Young and he would tell you he should make birdie from there to get it to

Eight Doug gim Doug gim from downtown must be the spot to putt from we’ve seen at least two other putts hold from [Applause] the I mean after seeing that he’s probably questioning whether or not he wanted to this is Bud collie for Birdie on seven sorry on five oh yeah well

Done oh oh really nice P gazar at the fifth desire is coming off ho ho ho come on well that look really good and I was just about to tell you what he did in a prior two halls I like it oh yeah you going see a

Snap snap it’ll be grainy and slow going going up and then trying to judge that speed on the green well just throw it right into the flag stick and make it might want to try it that way as well this is the 16th at niik

Etaria in the middle of the be trap and with not much wind and you get in that Fairway you can go in attack mode another back left hole location here tucked wind helping this ball move towards the flag stick a little bit oh ideal ideal is Right excellent

Looking birdie for sunj here at the par for Eric Cole talk about jump started last year Eric Cole lost in a playoff to Chris Kirk it was the impetus to being the PGA Tour Rookie of the Year what a season what a campaign he had and it

Started right here a year ago oh man he almost Jarred that one Justin Rose is putting for par yeah down the hill drove it in the left- hand penalty area had to take a drop and play his third to Hear look at that yeah that was spectacular putting for birdie from off the green we’ve repeatedly talked about that was a chip shot and a good looking Chip Shot yes it kept it speed up and took the right Edge you saw that big divot after there it looks like it’s crunchy

Grass down there Kurt doesn’t it grainy yeah right in front there at the par 4 14 four under just three off the lead got a beautiful golf swing oh man put another Birdie on the board took a look didn’t it Kevin Yu for Eagle at the last really good young player out of

Arizona State heck of an eagle right there what a great great Fairway W that is in into eight a stran second at 14 playing from the Fairway so he has control of his golf ball this whole location on the left side of this green right about there that’ll be a tap

In birdie for STS and that’ll put STS into two underpar just like that you can see things starting to Brown out a little bit you know the greens are so smooth it just kind hard to J gauge speed good looking oh he gets the assist second birdie On The Backs

Side uphill to about right there then it’s slightly downhill after that oh yeah another one goes for him that from 46 ft just kind almost at the top of that just very subtle little Ridge there so slightly down overall maybe back to the left at the end yeah good read right and

The Heart L Le making his way up the board he’s four under in the last five holes this is 18 toror Olen and he’s already hit his second in the water so now playing his fourth at this par five off the stick goes olison second shot for padrick Harrington Steve

There’s a big pwn on the right side of this hole the players try to get it down there as far as they can without risk going in the pond if they push it a little bit and that gives you a great chance to have a short iron

Here elected to stay back here a little bit off the te some people like Fowler challenged that bunker where Fowler hit it in and made a bogey but that’s a longer second shot in but right at it look at that shot from Norman BN in Guam play collegially at

Oregon this par five 525 yards there no defense on this golf course today the par fives are just giving up oh got it so that was was a moment ago how about that three consecutive threes for Eric should break a little bit to his right sooner or later you’re going to

Spend some time in the water here right pretty good five wow is that a good five up and down from where he was recognized uh Luke is one of the best Putters that we’ve seen on tour through the years absolutely that’s why the latest example

And I know the guy sitting next to you is a good putter Norman Jong for Eagle yeah usually 10 11 12 a good strong holes but 10 giving the guys a big chance now on that another one another Eagle what do you think of this conversion to a par

Five point and shoot though right fax he is did he do it from three-point Land look at you no offense DD but we have to talk about your putting Justin Rose for birdie at the 14th little up and then down at the end what a great C that was yeah you see

Justin Rose on there forun that was just earlier so Rose got to stay left it’s on a good line I believe oh that might be the best of the day here at 17 from Daniel Burger that’s pretty fancy man stand up there and hit that shot he has another really nice

Looking birdie here surprisingly we haven’t seen a lot of putts for birdie from over here short and right we’ve seen a lot of them from past the hole nice two and we go back to the bear trap and Aaron battley B short with his t-shot interesting choice to putt here Denny

McCarthy chipped his when you’re a good putter like like badley think he chose wisely I think so yeah Cameron Champ for birdie at the eighth yeah P looks like he goes right to left but at the end it just wants to break back it does Cameron got it

Perfectly at the ninth he’s back there somewhere there we go well he has to cut this shot which he likes to do oh okay what a shot from there from the way rough what a shot Chad Remy was the first to post to S under 64 sh Kim

Followed him up to the top spot Andrew Novak and Company including chess and Hadley at six under or at five under I should say all those numbers there and Shane Lowry there he is guy lives just down the road Matthew pavon thanks for watching the PJ Tour on
