Stroud strives for maiden majorpublished at 18:23 British Summer Time 13 August 2017
So if that stat is going to continue and it is not going to be Kevin, what do we know about his playing partner today, Chris Stroud?
Well the 35-year-old Texan won only last week, at the Barracuda Championship in Reno, Nevada, in his 290th start on the PGA Tour. The world number 203 is another with no apparent major pedigree, missing the cut six times in his eight previous appearances.
But he has wielded that long putter to excellent effect in this Championship and until back to back bogeys at the final two holes last night, had dropped only five shots in the event.
