OT - PGA News and Notes

[KennyBanyeah]

Couple things to note here:

1) A lot of people have commented on how wide the fairways at LACC are; but how much is actually usable in these conditions?

2) That is some weak ass rough for a US Open! I could hit a 5-6 iron from both of those lies and expect good contact 90-95% of the time. Not USGA standard. SAD!

THIS is more like it.

It would be cool if Rory and Tiger immediately took that money and donated it to their favorite charity.

/or even 50% of it would be a good thing.

Rickie Fowler is -7 at the U.S. Open. I had to check my calendar and make sure this wasn’t 2014

 

[sbb122]

Fowler finished with an eight under 62, the lowest round ever at the U.S. Open and tied for the lowest round ever in a major.

Left it short.

You’re Rahm and Hovland at you shoot -1 and you’re like “we’re right there!” Nope, 7 back.

Looking at the opening round scores, is this the US Open or the John Deere Classic?

And he did. Two 62s in one day at the US Open?

The USGA is going to take a flame thrower to the greens tonight.
