Conners, 33, looked in discomfort as he received treatment during Saturday's round
'Little draw, didn’t miss a shot on the front nine and he missed a short one on 3 so could have been even lower. Pretty easy 3 under.
'But then he plugged his bunker shot and while trying to hit out of it, hurt his wrist. He was obviously in some pain as soon as he hit it and I didn’t think he’d play more honestly.
'It took like 20minutes for his physio to get to the green (don’t get me started on that terrible process).
'He gutted it out but was def out of rhythm coming in. Lots of wrists getting worked on this week after multiple shots of trying to get thru this thick rough.'
