146th Open Championship at Royal Birkdale

[jmck]

this is ridiculous...should not be allowed. should be within 5 minutes after ball is found. new rule needed

 

Yeah, I mean it's one thing to get the ruling right, but seems unfair to Kuchar. Dude's gotta be ice cold by now after waiting on all that nonsense.

[Vindog]

If this group was warned before, what now?!

 

Absolutely nothing. I understand The frustration, but why should Spieth to be penalized more because of the tour vans location?

[nix]

I thought that was great to watch.

[the bishop]

I just realized Spieth actually has a logo

looks like the logo for the game show Beat Shazam

[salt]

Jordan will chip in to make Kuchar really angry

[OBbogey5]

Is his crazy head, Spieth appears that nothing is lost. He's perfectly fine with what's happened.

[moonshine]

Can you imagine all the people that lose the ending on DVR because of this?

[baloo]

I just left my TV for 20 minutes. Come back and Speith still hasn't hit his approach...

[KYMAR]

I saw His tee shot live.

 

Went in the kitchen, cut up and fried some mushrooms, an onion, and a green pepper, I sauteed all with some oil and a few hot pepper flakes, I then whisked up 4 large eggs, after the shroom, onion, and peppers were nicely browned, I added the eggs and in a few minutes had a delicious omelette.

 

I returned in time to see his next shot.

[hogans71]

If Spieth gets free relief because of that cable cam, that would be the most ridiculous bullxxxx ever

 

I can't believe what I'm watching either...

 

Now the worst drop, BY FAR, was tiger's Firestone drop from the freaking roof..

 

 

where do you think Tiger should have dropped it at? your house?

 

I'm good with stroke and distance on that one.

[salt]

His 30 minutes multiplied by all the viewers in the world. He stole my 30 minutes of sleeping time.

UA has really poor marketing if it took me watching JS hit a shot from the tour trucks to realize he actually had a logo.

[OBbogey5]

It's going to be a one shot swing, and Spieth feeling better than ever.

[fr0sty]

Ok...at least the commentators explained everything pretty well, seemed legit, but took waaaaay too long. Speith will get a bogey probably, but Kuch has a birdie put.

[BlackDiamondPar5]

I wish the rule allowed a golfer to walk back towards the tee and drop anywhere on that line instead of this.

[Pworld]

Yea, this was entertaining. Every other sport has had some crazy drama in the championships, why leave golf out?!?!

[North Texas]

No, he really shouldn't have gone back to the tee. Jeez, people pay attention.

[bscinstnct]

Man, kuck never drops those.

[nix]

Kuchar was having to wait, but he just watched his opponent run up and down a mountain like 10 times and get super stressed and distracted. Kuchar is the winner, not the loser in this situation.

[bladehunter]

Studid is right he should have hit another ball from the tee, they should not have allowed him to hold up the tournament for 30 minutes.

 

Lol. His choice per rules. Studio doesn't know what he's talking about. Miller is wrong. Hitting that tee ball again would have been twice as stressful as that escape shot. Th mind of a scrambler doesn't fear the shot from the odd place. But the tee shot that doesn't suit his eye will always be feared more.

[mosesgolf]

Time for the PGA Tour to implement a shot clock. BS how long he took to hit his shot.

[TheYipS]

Wow. Any chance Speith wins this? He really looks out of sorts.

This has a speith win written all over it!

[Freight-train]

Now I'm not feeling bad rooting against JS. Hope he misses that putt

[fr0sty]

Insane bogey!

[pheenomz4774]

37 minute bogey!!! Spieth still has a great shot!!

[triplebogeyblues]

There is no karma. There is no justice. OJ goes free and Spieth makes that putt.

[OBbogey5]

Spieth lives in distress. That's his comfort zone. All advantage Spieth. And he manufactured the whole thing

[bladehunter]

His 30 minutes multiplied by all the viewers in the world. He stole my 30 minutes of sleeping time.

 

 

Hit off and pop in bed. Problem solved.

[North Texas]

Doesn't make bogey if he goes back to the tee. Can't believe anyone really thought that was the best option.

[Vindog]

No, he really shouldn't have gone back to the tee. Jeez, people pay attention.

 

Exactly. Why hit 3 from the tee rather than 3 from 250 ahead?
