Rom disgracing the red shirt ; )

He hits the driver 380+ and does not get to parallel. Mucho Macho. Putting is for sissies.

No he doesn't. No one on tour hits it that far without downhill downwind.

 

I think he was taking artistic license.

If Rahm beats DJ here, he has to be one of the favourites for the Masters. Tiger-like start to his PGA Tour career so far, comparisons with Woods coming into the 1997 Masters with 3 wins from turning pro in 1996.

 

Rahm is competing for the biggest events immediately, and if he wins this then his 5 events going into the Masters will be 1, t16, t5, t3, 1.

 

Lets pump the brakes a bit...

I agree 100% Golf Channel makes him a favorite, because the winner this week is always going to keep winning.

 

He looks good, has a strong record going, so has to be considered in the mix, but that tournament is wide open.

Jacobsen's "Smart play" comment on DJ's 63 yd approach is killing me. Rahm is chipping after a very good slash from the weeds. Why in the world is a 15 foot leave a "smart play" in that situation? They halved the hole with pars. Golf needs a major announcers overhaul. Zzzzzz fest every single week.

 

I agree. These guys in the golf media have been around for decades. They're old, tired and stale.

 

We're in a new generation with an exciting bunch of young guns lighting up golf. Bring that youth and excitement into golf media.

You guys see that piece on Texans?.......yea that's what's up boys.

 

Nice piece on Texas golf. Interesting that if you peruse the annual golf course rankings of Golf Digest or GOLF magazine, there are very few Texas courses in the top 100, and very few professional major championships hosted in Texas.

 

The heat has a lot to do with it. You won't see a major here because by the time the US Open or PGA rolls around it's 100+

Yup. I don't know if our climate allows it. The US Open is early enough that it might not be above 100, but no way the PGA is ever played here. I've heard Trinity Forest could be a potential US Open candidate. I think the Nelson will be there next year.

Looks like DJs not gonna submit to a Rahming as easily as I had expected... Time for Rahm to take off the gloves on the back

 

Oh he has gloves on? Well that explains his putting.

I've been saying for years that the PGA Championship should be moved to late September. August is just too brutal in the south and southeast. That would bring Texas into play.

C'mon Rahm! Make this interesting!

This thing is as good as over. Rahm hit the wall. Plain and simple. It would be Herculean if he came back. And DJ would have to help him. I don't see that happening.

Big issue with Match Play. Not enough golf actually being played, lots of time to kill.

 

And FWIW , Golf Channel'S LPGA coverage is pretty good, esp for a big event like this week
