U.S. Open

and some of the pin placements were ridiculous. A few of the guys talked about it. That course at that length is tough enough as it is, especially if the wind blows at all. Tricking it up with ungetable pin placements was unnecessary. They've done a much better job today it appears.

The USGA is going to take a hit for the condition of that course.

Fleetwood tearing it up early. Probably too much ground to make up but when he gets hot he can go low.

Meh, aside from yesterday I think it's been fine. They can't control the wind and when it blows there it's going to be very difficult.

It looks like the wind has just picked up too. Advantage guys who are already out there if the wind picks up considerably.

No they can't control the wind but they can do a better job of watering the greens.

He just left one short right in the mouth. He has a shot if he keeps stroking it like that.

Do you kiss your children with that filthy mouth?

You should have left that one in the bag. That's ok.. they can't all be gems I guess.

Patrick Reed 5' away from moving to -4 and 1 back on 2. Watch out for him if he gets rolling.

I was watching this yesterday on my computer with no sound. Listening to Joe Buck on the TV today makes me want to do it again.

 

[Zooky]

Here comes Patrick Reed.
Here comes Webb Simpson.

 

[Wazmankg]

Here comes Patrick Reed.

Yeah, he's knocking down flags so far... about to tie for the lead after 3.

 

[R.J. MacReady]

I'm not buying it. Had he let it roll he would have had a 20 yard pitch over the trap. So unless you maintain that Phil Mickelson, with 2 strokes, could not have put it within the 8' that he had after slapping the moving ball back up the hill, he did not help his score by doing what he did.

Watching his ball rolling down the hill was the moment Phil said "fuck it"... and ftr he's been my favorite player for > 20 years.

Yes, I do agree Phil did say fuck it.

 

[gohusk]

Unreal shot by DJ. Hitting that shot through that crap?

 

[gohusk]

WOW.

 

[gohusk]

Terrible bunker shot by Berger. I could hit shot like that. I know because I do hit that shot at least 3 times a round.

 

[Zooky]

Koepka is not backing down.

 

[gohusk]

Fleetwood absolutely on fire.

Don't see many 264 yard par-3's at Pop's Putt Around.

 

[gohusk]

Fucking rocks in the bunker. There's a course around here that does that. Great way to scratch up your wedge.

Yeah, some of the yardages are crazy, but the technology has really forced that because they hit it so far now. 246 was the longest one I've ever played and I thought that was ridiculous. I used to hit driver and even that wouldn't be enough for me these days.
