Can’t complain about the coverage at all so far, there may be 80% less commercials than a typical event it seems. I’m sure it’ll pick up once we get out of early coverage, but thumbs up from this guy.

 

Agree...I just turn the volume down. The camera work has been solid and that is all I need. Plus no Faldo or Zinger so far. Don't forget that we all complained about Johnny Miller. The grass isn't always greener.

Sadly he will not.

If he gets paired with Noren the practice swing theater would be spectacular.

What is the point of having water on a lot of these holes if almost none of it is in play?

UFC as well if you are into that. Hockey, tennis, etc. It's great, especially for the degenerate gambler out there and you can't beat the price. Plus they make it very easy to cancel

 

Yeah. FFS, we're golfers. It's one of the more expensive sports to play on the planet. And people complain about the cost of ~one ProV1 per month for a subscription?

My money says one day they will move the tee up and not monkey with the 12 and 13 issue and create a gettable par five.

 

 

It is very awkward at the moment. I'm sure they must have deliberated long and hard before building that tee there but it really is a bad choice. They are constrained on the left by the boundary of the property and a road so there is nowhere to go over there. The only other option would be to move or severely alter the 12th green, which would be very expensive.

 

Of course that 13th tee will never get used except for a major championship, so maybe they figured everyone could just put up with it for the week.

Like BSC said, yes we do refer to the US Open as the Open. 

 

Seems in the UK they also used to refer to it as the British Open. 

We have already dealt with the issue of this plate ^^^ in years gone past. It's not an official product of Her Majesty's Empire Open, even if it's real, which I doubt.

 

Looks more like a bit of Chinese tat off Wish.

The real question is, Saturday AM?

Not gonna argue, it's not my money.. But, between the 4 of us in my family, we pay for 5 additional subs on top of internet.. I'm at my capacity.

My ESPN + app is only working about half the time this morning 😞

 

Mine won't load any of the feeds whatsoever on either TV. Spent 30 minutes troubleshooting it and finally turned them off. Lots of people with Amazon Firesticks have been bitching about the ESPN/+ app, so add me to the list.

Paying $6.99 to watch the little  circle spin

Classic Zalatoris putt.

[RedWings1]

I lost ESPN+ on Xfinity 15 minutes ago for my TV but the phone app is still working.

[teude]

Oh Spieth what a shot!

Spieth still lost with his putter.

Yeah - looks a bit shaky. Too bad. I was really rooting for him this week - a win would be epic. Only major left he needs for a career slam (something that, like, five golfers in history have ever managed to do).

Tiger laboring on the 18th green..... Is this the beginning of the end? 

[Christosterone]

[Hamsterdam84]

Anyone else keep hearing horns beeping on the ESPN+ broadcast?

[cvhookem63]

Tiger definitely has a noticeable limp now

call me crazy, but with Tiger not being able to push off his back leg, his swing is looking better than it has in years. He no longer gets stuck 

I noticed that when he came back from the back surgery leading up to his 2019 Masters win. All of his range and off-course swings looked so controlled, but he'd get to a tournament and just lash at it again. If his tempo is restricted due to his current limitations, it may actually yield some dividends even if he gives up some distance to the field as a result.

 Yeah it sounds like the back up beeps on a piece of equipment in reverse

Nonsense, he is perfectly fit according to his legion of worshipers here. Stop trying to stir up unrest.

[RareSight]

Looks like Tiger & Spieth are feeling the pressure with their ring-side seat to Rory’s imperious play.

[CasualLie]

It's early, but good to see that Rory actually has taken this challenge seriously.  Wedge game looking solid (Oops, spoke too soon, the approach on #1 was a clunker).  He had to be thinking beforehand "If I lose to Tiger....."  Ugh.  Spieth already said it out loud losing to Tiger at Masters was quite embarrassing.

Aren't they 'synonymous' 😂

Spieth leave a putt 1' short. From the gallery, "Gotta hit it!" 😂
