The Open @ Carnoustie (NO POLITICS)

[buckeyefl]

Do you think those that broadcast US golf know, no one wants to switch from live coverage to a shot of two dudes talking? Does not happen when watching Euro tour coverage.

A-friggin-men

 

I hate that we don't have the regular Euro tour personalities and producers.

I do. Problem is they don’t care. It’s all about them.

[MilkyButterCuts]

So there's 0% chance tiger wins. Right? I mean he has to go at least -7 to have a chance. Realistically -13 or 14 will be winner.

 

Tomorrow is supposed to be windy.

 

I think 11 under and a playoff.

 

Tiger needs a 65

 

That one extra shot would've gone a long way.

If the wind forecast holds up nobody is sniffing -13 or 14.

That was awesome

Broadcast is awful.

[Sean2]

Nothing against Kisner, but he's the only person in the mix that I don't want to see win it. For no particular reason other than he looks like a walking billboard out there. 5 sponsor logos in his shirt alone. Both sleeves, both sides of his chest, AND collar. Good God dude. How much sponsor $$$ do you need???

 

I was reminded of NASCAR. :-)

 

Seems like a nice guy though

I don’t blame Jordan. He doesn’t have time to sit there and commentate on other players. Next thing you know, Sandsy will be asking him about Tiger’s chances

[One Putter]

Jesus, what is with all the comments about Jordan's haircut? Is a nice tight fade all of a sudden a bad look?

[dlygrisse]

YJS is ssssooooooo annoyed by Steve sands. STFU Steve may be next.

[Sean2]

Is there a difference between "lead" and "outright lead"? That annoys me.

 

I have been saying that for a while. You either have the lead or you don't. There is nothing "outright" about it.

Someone has to pay for all those Miller Lites

I assume we're talking about Speith's, "I'm not paid" to do shot analysis comment?

 

What does YSJ stand for again? I think I missed that one.

[UncleJohn’sBand]

Again, I’ll say it, he lost in house rules Beer Pong where the loser shaves their head. Still has the tan lines from the old haircut.

 

People are worried about his iron play, his poor putting, and I’m legit concerned about a kid who went to UT who loses at Beer pong.

[dlygrisse]

Does Kisner have 9 logos above the waist? It’s like I’m watching Ricky Bobby play golf.

[Lagavulin62]

I have been saying that for a while. You either have the lead or you don't. There is nothing "outright" about it.

 

 

Thank you Sir.

No idea, maybe Your Savior Jordan?

[Dave230]

Can almost hand Spieth the jug today

 

Ask Danny Willet if they should give a Jordan the Jug yet.

 

Tomorrow the wind will blow. I like his chances but he got away with a few today. This will be fun. JS rarely makes it look easy.

 

Wind blows everyone away but Danny Willett (currently on -3), shoots a final round 67 and the clubhouse lead. Spieth leads by 3 on the last hole. Van de Velde?

[UncleJohn’sBand]

Also Callaway has to LOVE Xander playing and m3 driver still and his p770 irons.

Well you could be tied for the lead. They just want to make sure you are clear there isn’t an outright tie. :)

ya I miss looking at and listening to that pot bellied, gap toothed Kenny Schofield

[MountainGoat]

Spieth's ability to pull his game together when it matters most (in majors) is quite amazing.

[Mikey5e]

Phils Chrome soft commercial where he hits it through the TV screen glass after telling viewers to move to the side is a bit repulsive. Maybe because I think it's a lame attempt to make things right with the US Open debacle.

[Choclab]

I'm shocked he didn't

[bladehunter]

Jealousy.

[redfirebird08]

Did Hicks just say Tiger did not win 2006 Open? Sure sounded like it.

[manku]

As long as his shirt is tucked in, then it's acceptable country club attire!

It's one of those stupid sports announcing ticks that has become the norm. The other one that makes me irrationally angry is the constant use of "like a" in sports discussions. As in "When you're dealing with a player like a Tiger Woods..." THERE IS ONLY ONE OF HIM THERE IS ONLY ONE OF ANYBODY GO SLAM YOUR OWN HEAD IN A CAR DOOR.
