I figured that out unfortunately- the NCAA website made it seem like you could stream all rounds. That’s disappointing...

I'd be taking a very relaxing break after that. Brutal schedule!

Smh- I shot an 86 yesterday from 5800 yards.... it’s amazing to watch these KIDS play such a different game. Finishing with a 500 yard par 4 and 575 yard par 5. I didn’t play a par 4 over 400 yards and the longest par 5 was 475... geez

My goodness, if Brock Everett makes it out on tour they will definitely have to add a shot clock.

We need more of these tournaments on TV!

College golfers are painfully slow all around ... it’s just brutal

Very true.

End of a great run for my Illini. Bad time to have their worst round of the season on Sunday. :(

AJGA, for whom I referee a couple of times a year, hands them off to D1 ready, willing, and able to play in 4:15. I see some of the very same players a couple of years later at NCAA events creeping around in 5:15. Sometimes on days in the Spring and the Autumn when we play 36 holes, the only way they get a move on is the onset of darkness. I've never seen pace-of-play enforced at an NCAA event. :swoon:

I believe there were 6 pace-of-play penalties on Saturday.

At the AJGA events, are the kids on their own on the course or is there a parent/coach with them on a regular basis?

Parents can follow them around but I think it would have to be a caddie if you want advice. I remember getting a green/yellow/red depending on how we were doing on pace.

I enjoyed watching it last night, that course looks like a good test. One thing I noticed was a lot of unique looking golf swings.

That's refreshing. I do a couple of NCAA invitationals each year and there's no effort beyond cajoling.

Caddies are not permitted. Parents are very closely watched to see that no advice is offered. Spectators usually remain on the cart paths but are always allowed (even encouraged) to help search for wayward golf balls. AJGA staff are all over the place and keep it moving. The AJGA system is impressive (There may be those who would say "oppressive.). :)

That's kind of what I suspected. Safe to say a big, big part of the slowdown when they reach this stage is overabundance of coaching that is constantly taking place?

"That's kind of what I suspected. Safe to say a big, big part of the slowdown when they reach this stage is overabundance of coaching that is constantly taking place?"

That's what I see. And, in the few events I do, it's not all coaches all the time. A few seem to micromanage, much like we've seen on TV these last two weeks. That can turn the player's allotted 40 seconds into a minute and 40 seconds in a flash.

End of a great run for my Illini. Bad time to have their worst round of the season on Sunday. :(

At least the mens golf team can get to an NCAA championship.

Seems like they had a fairway mower issue out there...

Imo that’s the problem. What good does it do to try and speed up a kid who knows they’re A. Playing 36 today and have nothing else to do when they finish , played 18 yesterday after traveling , and will finish the remaining round in the AM and start another 18 holes. Guys take a long time for 36 holes because they’ve just already mentally prepared for it to take that long and just wanna stay in a rhythm. There’s no rush to hit your shot on number 12 when you realize you still have 24 holes left on your day

Parkinson's Law vs the Rules of Golf. If the Committee does nothing, Parkinson wins. :)

Damn my gators totally fell apart. OKS looking good on their home course. must add some pressure vs knowing the course...

Funny enough, had A&M not folded in the last few holes and closed the deal (they had the lead early and late), OSU may not have made it as the #1 seed with home course advantage (agreed, it has to be a TON of pressure added). Bottom line, it's been really fun to watch the last few days. And sadly, my Illini are in the same boat as your Gators, so we can both dream of the "what if's?" I guess.

my two big guns on my Horns, both got beat, including the #1 ranked Amateur ( Doug Ghim) in the country, he squandered many birdie opportunities and then hooked a shot into the water with the match on the line...he also folded last year in the US Amateur to an opponent he should have beat

Roll Tide!

I didn't particularly like that Everett's coach went up and stood on the spot where he was supposed to hit the layup so that Brock could get a yardage with the laser. OMG, that kind of thing needs to stop. I never got that kind of help in HS.

This isn’t exactly HS either so you’re reasoning has ZERO merit.
