Justin Thomas looks like he's suffering from severe constipation most of the time.

When is the tour going to start penalizing players for missing the fairway? In no way, shape, or form, should anyone hit only 6 fairways and shoot 7 under. As Heisenberg from Breaking Bad once said, just grow some f'ing balls, PGA Tour.

Agreed 

 

 

Slow the greens, grow the rough and dial back the ball.

Back to Kentucky. So soon too. 
 

Scottie can’t wait to see his bud Detective Gaddis.  

That's why the PGAT wasn't trashing Kentucky after the SS debacle ...... 🤣

Looking forward to seeing more of Thompson, Thorbjornsen, and Clanton.  Great golf swings.

 

And Ben Griffin had some personality in his post round interview, and we share similar eye problems!

This is the sole purpose of tournaments like these (JDC). The PGAT has two or three.

 

Cultivating and keeping the tour fresh is a strategy that's worked for the PGAT for years.

That's why they have 45 tournaments and not twelve.  🤣 Opposite field events are very important during the Major Championships. (even though WRXers only watch majors)🤣

Despite the July 4th holiday falling on a Thursday, leading to many days away for millions of Americans over the weekend, CBS Sports drew record ratings for the John Deere Classic.

Sunday’s final round, which saw Davis Thompson win his first PGA Tour title, averaged 2.102 million viewers—a 32% increase from a year ago, when Sepp Straka came from behind with an impressive 9-under 62 to win by two.

Thompson, meanwhile, won by four and held a commanding lead for almost the entire final round. Yet, despite the wide margin, CBS Sports delivered its most-watched John Deere Classic since 2015, when Jordan Spieth won this event for the second time. That final round drew 3.4 million, per Josh Carpenter of Sports Business Journal. Spieth’s victory that year also came three weeks after his U.S. Open title at Chambers Bay. Spieth narrowly missed out on a playoff at St. Andrew’s at The Open the following week—he was, without a doubt, the biggest story in golf that season.

This year, CBS’ audience peaked at 2.862 million during the 5:00 p.m. ET hour Paramount+, the streaming service for CBS Sports, also had its most-streamed John Deere Classic ever—impressive statistics given that the tournament had already been decided.

But more storylines arose in the Quad Cities outside of Thompson’s dominant win. Rising star Michael Thorbjornsen and Luke Clanton, an amateur from Florida State who has exceeded expectations, each carded 8-under 63s on Sunday to tie for second. Eric Cole, another PGA Tour fan favorite known for his durability and easy-going attitude, tied for seventh.
