Rodgers, who has struggled to translate the promise he showed as amateur world number one into professional success over the last three years, plundered eight birdies in a seven-under-par 64 at TPC Deere Run in Silvis. The 25-year-old ended his second round on a sour note with a three-putt bogey at the last but his 13-under total of 129 was enough for the two-stroke cushion over fellow American Bryson DeChambeau, who shot a 65 to stand clear in second place....

Stadia is focused on cloud-based gaming and has promised 4k gaming to its users. Unfortunately, 4k gaming is not always guaranteed, and with Xbox venturing into cloud-based gaming some players have begun to think that the platform may be destined for failure.
