8:11 a.m.: As we wait for Brooks Koepka to start his second round, it's worth looking bad at a bit of a controversy he was involved in on Thursday. It happened on the par-5 15th hole, after Koepka hit his second shot safely on the green. Camera caught Koepka's caddie, Ricky Elliott, mouthing the word "five" as if to indicate "5-iron" was the club Koepka used, and Elliott seemed to be looking in the direction of Gary Woodland's caddie when saying it. Giving advice is a no-no in the Rules of Golf, so tournament officials question Koepka and Woodland after the round. When they determined that no advice was actually given at the time, the committee cleared Koepka of any wrong doing and his seven-under 65 stood.
