I think my line would be -165 EDog, +190 Ivey

I agree...I woudl guess that the 3rd round would be tougher than the 4th. Hes bound to get a second wind, he can take his time on each shot, and since hes got so much margin-for-error scorewise he should be fine. If he blows it now it will be because of some catastrophe...losing his swing completely, cramp, pulled muscle, etc.

Don't agree on the second wind comment, he's just gonna be dog ass tired for the rest of the day. The extra time to play the 4th round could be the x-factor though. If he's got about 6 hours and can take his time and rest a bit, then he's got a much better shot.

Didn't that one dude, who's now a golf commentator basically pass out while playing TWO rounds in the US Open in a single day back in the 60's or 70's?

i think you're talking about Ken Venturi in the '64 Open, pretty that was the year.

Imagine what his caddie felt like

This is an awesome prop bet. LOL at all the poker players claiming it's impossible to walk that far. Go EDOG!!!

I certainly think he could walk the distance, just not sure with the heat and carrying even a Sunday bag that he could shoot under 100 all 4 rounds. I for one hope he does it, it would be a legendary prop bet win as far as I am concerned, I just don't think he can pull it off.

Pretty sure noone's claimed that he can't walk it, some (including myself) think that fatigue will really set in and his swing will start to breakdown. Back in high school I could run a 4:40 mile so was in pretty solid shape and I played for the golf team and practiced a ton. I tried playing 45 holes in a 10 hour period and by the end I could tell I was really falling apart. I suspect the same will happen to E-Dog over these last 27 holes. I'm pretty impressed with his score over the front 9 of round 3 to be honest.
