2018 United States Open

[Sean2]

What will make the remaining holes difficult is not wind, or course set-up, but pressure.

[bruizer]

Did Finau shorten his swing??

[OldBridge]

And remember, if this goes to a playoff we get a two hole aggregate because the USGA had to find a horrible playoff substitute

[Sean2]

What do you do if you're Fleetwood right now? 2.5 hours is a huge amount of time to kill knowing you might have to go out and play two (plus?) holes for the US Open.

 

I think he should go out on the course, join some fans, and yell, "Mashed potatoes!", or "Bababooey!", or some such.

Hoe reminiscent of Corey Pavin was that shot of Fitzpatrick's.

 

I was thinking that too

 

Was also thinking that Pavin looked really old for a guy who was like 35 at the time. The "sleeping with the enemy" mustache just doesn't scream young man like it used to i guess

 

A lot of people forget Pavin moonlighted under the stage name John Oates in the 1980s. Only player to win a major and have a several #1 hits.

With all the debating and complaining about conditions, it seems to me I remember most of the people who comment in this forum were hoping for these type of conditions about a month ago. I love the idea of the winner being right around even par, I wish every tournament was this difficult

[deadsolid...shank]

Ugh, Finau. Can't afford a unforced error like that.

[Jagpilotohio]

Now who was it that posted a few pages back that it was set up so easy there would be 10 guys at 65 or better?

 

LOL!

[DatSliceDoe]

Looks like the conditions are finally what they should have been the rest of the tournament, barring wind and weather. Things are very fair now.

Leave me alone, I'm a family man!

It worked pretty well for him in the Masters when he dislocated the ankle, maybe he stuck with it.

LOL!

 

Gotta factor in pressure too. It's not just about course set-up.

[Pworld]

Dustin's best putt today was from the fairway.

Nerves are starting to show now aren't they? But I have to admit (especially to J Nelson) right now it's pretty darn good.

[Pworld]

The camera was as nervous as Brooks. Or was that the "heartbeat" cam?

[Singapore Joe]

That guy has pretty good short game. Wonder whether he's any good at driving the ball.

[QuigleyDU]

Fleet wood has this locked up. It is just a matter of how long it takes everyone else to bleed out.

That guy is in a giant bucket in the sky about 100ft high. It's windy.

If I were a betting man, I'd put down a pretty good wager on that being right.

 

I don't see anyone playing the last five or six in even or under par.

Plus, I always find that the that the sun is stronger way out east and it drains you more.

 

Or could be I always have an IV of vodka hooked in my arm when I out there ; )

Koepka is looking pretty calm right now, and has made some great par saves.

It will mean I will win the two bets I made at work. I gave two people 5 picks and I got the field. Neither picked fleetwood.

If the USGA had any b*lls the leader would be at +19 right now and they'd have let a lion loose on the grounds

At some point you run out of those, and the wind is picking up.

Is it zinger or buck that won’t stop breathing in their mic, I want to put on music and mute this.....

 

And really brooks, missing a fairway after another missed putt inside 15 ft. I was pullingormbrooks but I like the fleetwood story too....

[Dave230]

It's a 2-man show, outside chance DJ. Koepka playing very well, would be a thoroughly deserved win if he holds this out at +1.

Yeah, but those four and five foot par saves are likely to catch up to him.

[bscinstnct]

Watch Burger win it all

There is so much edited, recorded action. Guy hits a shot and immediately cuts to the ball landing on the green.

[Jagpilotohio]

This is going to be pretty darn anti climactic if everyone keeps wilting and The Hairy Holy one wins it just sitting in the clubhouse.
