Paul Casey is taking a large step in nailing down a place in the Olympics.

Nations get two players to the Olympics next month, using no more than four when they’re one of the best 15 in the entire world. This is the last week until the 60-man area is set.

The major British participant will be Tyrrell Hatton, who hasn’t indicated if he intends to visit Tokyo.

Jordan Spieth is playing Casey. He had four birdies on the front , together with a bogey on No. 4 if he missed the fairway. Spieth was over for the championship.

It might be a symptom of adequate scoring chances for the remainder of the area. Casey and Spieth is going to be accomplished with the next round about 90 minutes prior to the last group even tees off.
