Nice try by the tandem fishermen. But this tuna ain’t biting today.

Oh yeah, but it’s comforting to see even the best do that sometimes.

Cmon, man.

I guess the perceived attitude in many of his rounds, like it doesn't matter since he already has so much. its just my opinion based on what I see. his non caring, kinda smug way he carries himself out there.

[Frasier Crane]

this Rory performance reminiscent of WGC Firestone/Bridgestone (?) a few years ago with the driver and irons.

[challengers]

koepka such an awkward fella. he's got the fashion tag thing on his shoes now but it just looks awkward.

[caniac6]

Watching Rory walk up to 15, I find it sad to think they need armed police walking with these guys.

This is getting so much more interesting than it promised to be just half an hour ago.

[bladehunter]

Great putting by Rory.

[Frasier Crane]

WHAT A CLUTCH PUTT RORY!!! WOW.... I love how he's not standing over the ball a long time.... he takes a look, and putts.

[jmck]

Big boy putt there.

Yep. When he putts he wins often. Good to see Faxons advice earning him a lot of $.

I feel like he's had some extra juice going toe to toe with Brooks today.

Yep. He does seem to be tired of hearing about Brooks.

Great point.... it's like his last look at the putting line is the trigger.... he goes straight into the putting stroke after that look.

[jdl]

That'll do it.

[Lagavulin62]

Well nice to see another exciting winner.

He went on quite a run back when he was feeling really comfortable with the Stockton method. He's looked more and more comfortable with the Faxon method as this year has gone on. He could have himself quite another run coming up.

 

If he's feeling comfortable with the putter it takes a ton of pressure off the rest of his game and he starts swinging free and easy, and when he's swinging free and easy he can look close to unbeatable. Maybe he'll never be quite the grinder Bruce is (or Tiger was), but when he's really on (e.g., the Canadian Open) there's just no touching him. It's a thing a beauty.

[TheMoneyShot]

Rors is going to get it done!!

Great point about taking the pressure off the rest of the bag... a scary thought given how great he can be driving and hitting irons.

[Frasier Crane]

I hated the change to the scoring they made this year, but after watching this weekend, I think I like it!!! Seemed like there was more movement on the leaderboard and the cream rose to the top.

or when Brooks is indifferent.

When Rory does it on Sunday with a Major on the line he will get the props, this is a Payday event, does not really add to the legacy though.
