2016 US Open Discussion Thread

Danny Lee has been in the top 3 or 4 for the entire coverage, havnt seen any tv time yet

The PGATourLive guys are ten times better than Fox. This is really sad.

 

To be fair, they've got a new group of guys and handling hours of rain delays is a tough deal at the best of things. At a regular tournament they'd go to some kind of alternative coverage and they wouldn't have had to fill this kind of time.

 

I want to be fair and I can put up with a lot, but it's hard to watch when they keep cutting away from a ball in motion with faltering commentary. Even in replay scenarios, they camera work is not working. I understand the dilemma Fox is in, biting off more than they can chew, but maybe they should have cut their teeth on the web.com before ordering up a major.

Dechambaea is gone. That is OB.

[Golfnutgalen]

Bryson in free fall mode after reaching 3-under...

[porkpistol]

Bout to be delayed again.

[peachfuzz]

Bryson with the meltdown.

[North Texas]

DeChambeau having to go back to the tee in this situation might fall into the category of a stupid rule.

[ayylmao]

Why didn't he get the ball himself?

[toc]

I missed the explanation, why didn't he play his provisional?

[North Texas]

Can only hit a provisional for a ball that is lost or OB. Since he found his original ball, it fell into the unplayable category.

[Tate]

His provisional was for a lost ball or OB. He found his ball and determined it was unplayable.

[Golfnutgalen]

I missed the explanation, why didn't he play his provisional?

 

Because they found his original ball. You have to play the original or go back and re-tee in that instance.

 

Whoa Rory, that was one of his rare rushed duck-hook swings. He hasn't done that much in the last couple years.

[jmck]

You see that last putt from Rory? His feet were set up way to the left of his line. Took it back right on his line, then immediately pulled it to the left along his foot line. Perfect camera angle to see it. Ugh.

[ECUPirate]

Back to back double bogeys for DeChambeau.

[Arpeggi]

Rickie Fowler. Overrated.

Gotcha thanks, last thing I heard them say was that there was OB down the right of the fairway then my kids started screaming lol

Meanwhile, I have to watch Mr. Puma, Mr. Nike, and Willet butcher their rounds.

[QuigleyDU]

Rickie Fowler. Overrated.

 

how so??

[carn9698]

Spieth behaves like such a brat. It is embarrassing.

 

Throwing clubs on the first nine on Thursday? Naughty, naughty. Jordan Alexander... sounds like you need to activate your under armour.

Maybe add a sports shrink to the team...

the guy is hard to watch because of his antics. If he was in my 4ball my regular pals would make so much fun of his ways that he would walk off for sure.

 

would be pretty hard to tease a guy consistently beating you by 20 shots a round ...

in my 4 ball it would not matter trust me. It's more important to us that you do not act like a dick! He is embarrassing. Sorry but it needs saying.

[Konklifer]

Can see the steam coming out of BAD's ears.

[rtran]

is Jordan the new bubba????

dechammwammmm youre outta there!!!

[Black'N'Gold]

Why didn't he get the ball himself?

 

This is what I was wondering as well. Really annoyed me that he made the old guy crawl on his hands and knees to fetch his ball while he just stood there.

Irony.

 

Or jealousy.

Which hole was that?

[Konklifer]

Who are the announcers for the Spieth group?

[edgerat]

Put the old BRAKES on that pitch!

[Roadking2003]

Still looking for the hole where Spieth threw his club.

[peachfuzz]

Featured bogeyfest #2...

[PZero]

Rickie Fowler. Overrated.

 

how so??

 

Because he has a tattoo?

[toadstyle]
