The Open

[Wazmankg]

They appear to be tearing up Royal St. Georges.. the Open layout that apparently nobody likes. At this pace the cut will be under par.

 

[Montalban]

Every time they show DeChambeau in the British today he's in the high rough. When will that dude learn that there is another way to play these courses.

I loved the interview with the greenskeeper. he looks like an aging rock star more than a golf superintendent.

Really surprised at the scores with the winds they were facing.

Most of that scoring happened from the morning groups before the wind kicked up.

One of the announcers said the greens were running at about 10 on the stimpmeter. That's much slower than these guys are used to.

Course is tearing Phil's ass up.

I was going to say. I only watched for a little but the wind looked pretty strong when I turned it on.

Just a complete faggot move by Speith at 18. Unforgivable

 

[Montalban]

The leaders are playing very cautiously and tentative. -12 will win it

 

[Wazmankg]

Louis Oo has started choking early I see. Morikawa up by 3 now. There's still the back to play, but I think we can call it now.

Aren't playing conditions ideal for that venue?

Someone should kick that course's ass.

That putt on 10 to stay at -14 was HUGE…

They sort of are though nobody is going nuts yet. Several 65s so far including Koepka and DeChambeau.

I think he's going to be special. He's only been on tour for 2 years, one being the Covid year. This would be his 2nd win in only 8 majors played with 2 other top 10s.

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

As huge as that par putt by Morikawa on 10 was… that birdie putt on 14 was massive.

Still up by 1…

 

[gohusk]

Fuck this guy plays slow. They're like 2 holes behind the group ahead.

 

[Wazmankg]

Looks like Louis Oo won't finish 2nd again so at least they won't be able to add this one to his list of almosts.

Not really. I’m watching the British feed and Spieth is on 17 right now while Morikawa is teeing off on 16.

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

Spieth misses Birdie on 17…

Morikawa Par’s 16…

That might just do it. The kid is making zero mistakes.

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

That was as close to a perfect final round of golf in a major as I’ve ever seen. The kid just didn’t make mistakes and made clutch putts when he needed to make them.
