Already turned it off. Portrush got her skirt lifted.

I'm watching every minute of this one. Probably the last tournament of the year that matters for me.

Is tommy on the “ I’ll try out every bunker on the course “ tour?

[Jagpilotohio]

Unless something bizarre happens, all that’s left is to see if he beats Tigers -19 record for 72 holes

Brooks doesn’t like to practice for regular events...

[carrier street]

Jesus tapdancing Christ I forgot how slow JB plays. Watching him stand over the ball for as long as he does is infuriating.

lol, agreed!

Zzzzzzzzzzzzz........

Nail #1 ? Zinger. Please. Tone it down. No train smoke and no “ he must shave his back” when someone hits a long drive. We get it. You know words. A few. And can rearrange them to say different things. Sometimes.

[PumaAttack]

To be honest this has been a really boring major season. Outside Tigers win, all the other majors have had no drama or intrigue.

See you guys in April. GO BRUINS!

[Jagpilotohio]

Good lord. JB is imploding

[ebrasmus21]

Rickie will birdie each of his remaining holes to come in solo 2nd

[vjswing]

All credit to Lowry for dropping the hammer on this field, but TDF Stage 15 is way more compelling at this point. Will go back to golf once it's over.

If Tiger was minus 18 and leading by 6, you’d all be going nuts and ratings would be thru the roof.

Absolutely true. Which is why tiger is tiger and Shane is Shane.

If Shane Lowry had 15 majors we would probably be doing the same thing too...

But Ol Zinger (that’s what his best bros at the club call him) is in the know bruh.

Slowly imploding.

[PumaAttack]

NBC and Golf Channel have the worst golf presentation of any of the networks.

[sbjinx]

After the shaky start Lowy really righted his ship where everyone else is just hacking it around. Thought Tommy would make things interesting but it’s looking more and more like the majors are too much for him.

[codman]

See my post on page 57 about Koepka's practice routine yesterday. Maybe spanking 5 dozen brand new ProV1xs into the dunes, rather than down the range, has thrown his game off!!!

They are in Ireland.

[Jackhammer993]

Great week, not the last round I was hoping for but all good. Hopefully back nine is a celebration of Irish spirit. Some big wins this week. Shane Lowry, Royal Portrush, Open Championship. Not sure whatever happened to the USGA but the R&A have made so many great decisions on course set up. Masters still the best but Open Championship is an easy second followed distantly by US Open which is followed distantly by the PGA. Overall great year for golf.

[drbonesvt]

I know everyone is panned the -18 but the next player at -12 and no one else making a move ? Shane Playing like a boss , on the same course as the others and the next contenders soiling their britches

[No_Catchy_Nickname]

Nice kick there for Lowry. Even the course is helping him now.

Agreed, being from France, I'm heavily rooting for the yellow Jersey to remain as is until Paris, we haven't had a french winner since Bernard Hinault, it would be awesome!

[KaTooM]

“Playing through” or not, the commercial breaks are agonizing!

 

Four commercial breaks in 30 minutes in unacceptable!

Nope. This is why WRX is WRX.
