2016 Dean & DeLuca / The COLONIAL

[PGArox]

I said it very early in the Day-McIlroy-Spieth thread, but those guys are far too close to each other to say one is better than the others.

 

When Jordan is doing his thing, well ... you're seeing it right here. The guy just has an uncanny knack of getting the ball into the hole.

[DrOptimtor]

What a putting clinic those last couple of holes.. rediculous

[Forged4ever]

That's a back 9 30.

Hey Shilg's THIS Kid's a Back Niner!!!

 

Oh Lord, I'm insufferable :)

 

I almost hate myself sometimes...

 

Almost :)

 

Golfingly Yours,

RP

[SwooshLT]

And can we stop with the "below average distance " thing? 9i from 170 on last states otherwise....

[pennsargus]

That was nutz!!

Just like Tiger did for years. Tiger always seemed to make the long puts when the tournament was on the line.

[golfgirlrobin]

Very happy for Jordan.

 

Even happier to read an entire tournament day's worth of comments without a single reference to how slow he plays. Admirable restraint, gentlemen.

[Roadking2003]

More wins than Tiger at age 22 is an awesome stat. I'm beginning to think he is the real deal.

 

I also like how he has won or played well on a wide variety of courses. Bombers courses like Augusta, shot makers courses like Colonial and scrubland bump and run at the US Open last year.

[dlygrisse]

So ya think this kid has a decent chance on those Oakmont greens?

[SwooshLT]

And I've said in many threads....GOLF is in great hands! We'll get JD, YJS and rors to battle soon for a title (hopefully a major )

[ayylmao]

Still needs to fine-tune his tee shots. Otherwise I think he'll struggle.

He's been to town twice-

 

Later edit: 05/29/16, 6:29pm-> I stand corrected. Once. He had another one day trip that he had to cancel. Apologies. HaHa, she's my friggin fact check also, lol. Thanks Sweetheart :) RP II

 

Have a nice holiday :)

 

My Best,

This is true, but I don't think Oakmont fairways are as narrow as Colonial.

[Frankensteins Monster]

Can't believe Jordan's back 9.

Amazing. Simply amazing.

Now that the monkey's off his back for getting past Augusta,

Time to put himself there for the U.S. Open.

Love seeing him always there with a chance to win.

Augusta's ghost isn't there anymore.

You just have to love it.

Someone needs to tell these guys that grey pants don't go well with 80 degrees and 70% humidity. As my wife called it, swamp Word not allowed.

[carn9698]

Those guys 4-8 in the world need to step up. These 3 are winning so much. Scott stopped the trend early in the year. Fowler DJ Stenson Rose and Bubba need to up their effort.

I'm guessing you are referencing Kyle Riefers major swamp a** in those plaid pants? Those things must have been cotton or soemthing that was bad!

I brought it up earlier, Riefers had a SEVERELY ADVANCED case of it... A case so advanced we wondered whether or not he was having 'technical difficulties' after the opening tee shot.

[DTXgolfer12]

Called it!

[KYMAR]

I almost came in earlier to comment on Kyle doing his best Chris Berman pebble beach pro am Impersonation. Seriously Bro, Your Boys needed water wings.

 

And honestly Reifers clothes are just ugly. Shirt too but those pants look like something a bus boy At Chili's would wear. Oh well, at least No ankle elastic was involved

 

Now I want Chili's.

 

Called it!

 

Clutch man. Way to pick out the dark horse.

Indeed. Haha. Not a good look and certainly can't be comfortable feeling like you've peed your pants for 5 hours.

We were fearful of something a bit more ominous... Like Saturday night celebrating of being in the top 5 got out-of-hand and he was bearing the brunt of too many tall boys in our humid Texas afternoon.

[runningmarvel]

Jesus Christ!

I love the kid though this might be a tad over the top as he's only 22yo-

 

Let's wait a year or two :)

 

Wait an Effin minute, LMAO

 

I stand corrected-

 

Haha, F*** the door, I'm staying, lmao

 

Fairways & Greens My Friend,

RP

I call up to the man Jesus Christ and it's you who's first to reply - now who's over the top Richard? ;)

You got me, I'm a huge JDay fan boy - just you wait

I used to think Jordan was having a good week putting. Then last year I thought he was having a great season putting. It has to end soon right? He has made me a believer. What Hogan was to ball striking Jordan is to putting. He is just the next level.

That's it honestly, I completely agree.

 

He's unbelievable around the greens. He can get up and down from a trash can simply because all he has to do is out the ball on the green, it's got more than a chance to go in from there.

 

This is why he can win anywhere. As long as the course has putting greens, he's got a pretty damn good shot at being on top of the leaderboard.

Just how many putts did Spieth have today, I never heard an announcer mention it.

[rgk5]

Just how many putts did Spieth have today, I never heard an announcer mention it.

 

15 front and 9 on the back.

Haha. The guy needs to avoid the wool or 100% cotton duds in the humidity, that's for sure.
