[WidespreadPanic]

Wonder why JT didn't go with the tie this year??!!?

Nice to see Tiger looking like a guy who's won 14 of these.

Guess we can hope he misses the cut

[legitimategolf]

Easy week for the caddies...no hills, and most divots disintegrate.

 

No raking bunkers as well?

[BiggErn]

Matsuyama got like 60 yards of run in the weeds

I think every flight Has a marshall following to do that for All the flight ..

I like Johnny Miller and all but now have to switch to featured group coverage. **** is getting serious now, must concentrate.

[larciel]

Tiger sticking with ardmore for a long time?

[rawdog]

Bryson's shoulder feeling better after that eagle.

[Lagavulin62]

The DeChambeau Project. Lose my pillow and screw up my shoulder, that’s it.

Player addressing ball? Sure, cut to commercial.

Just saw a clip of Herbert? putting and hitting another players poker chip ball marker with his ball. Probably wasn't going in but definitely stopped farther away from the hole then it would have.

 

Granted I don't think he hit it on the line he wanted to but why would you use a poker chip if your ball is in between another player and the hole and it's close enough it could hit it? I carry one, but always use a coin if I'm close to another player's line. Balls just usually roll right over the small flat markers.

 

Guess the player putting should have said something but seems like a no brainier.

I’ve been watch featured all morning. How many times has he said “trap draw”?

[Lagavulin62]

When the ball is in the middle of the bunker, it doesn’t “appear” to be there. It’s just there.

Got a video? That wasn't one of the five shots they've shown on Golf Channel in the last ten minutes.

Matsuyama from the baby gorse

[jerebear21]

really enjoying the dulcet tones of peter alliss.

[larciel]

Day needs a miracle to get that one out.

 

How did he do?

Watch the UK coverage. Lots of Golf, not too much talking heads, and we even have Butch and Beem for you Merkins who don’t do British accents.

 

Sad to hear that US tv is doing it’s best to murder another Major competition, and I suspect it’s why, in part, you guys live Augusta so much as it cuts all the commercial crap.

[DatSliceDoe]

Miller lecturing Koepka on how hard to hit a shot off your knees in a pot bunker. Insufferable.

[BiggErn]

He’s probably average. By pga standards he’s probably right in the middle. By WRX standards he’s probably at the bottom.

[deadsolid...shank]

Koepka getting “bunkered” right now. So easy to give strokes away quickly.

[jdl]

Brooks now with bomb and gouge, gouge, gouge game.

[ClarkGrswld4]

pissed away a good opportunity there

[larciel]

Us open champion has same sand shot as I have.

[Lagavulin62]

Gorilla Golf not great in pot bunkers.

[OBbogey5]

Moving this post over from the thread about things that bother me:

 

Camera angles nearer the greens: plant those cameras about 50 yds in front of the greens and point them at the greenside bunkers so we can watch the ball roll into them. As is, the lame behind the green tower cameras show the ever-so-slightest slit of the bunkers, and the ball rolling towards them, and then poof, gone! It’s a magic show..

[MilkyButterCuts]

That stinger, wow.
