[crawdads]

Rose won in philly a couple years ago, perfect venue for him.

 

[twinkie13]

just missed

 

[twinkie13]

what is rose hitting with there?

was that a rescue?

 

[crawdads]

Anyone remember Augusta when Scott dunked it. Still one hole to play.

 

[twinkie13]

ill save everyone the trouble

 

[twinkie13]

how often at the US does an over par score win it?

 

[crawdads]

lmao. i started looking immediately. Thats a nice pic of her. Shes about average for tour standards.

[crawdads]

[KJ]

Ha. Still a losing week for me. The other play was really poor. Thanks though. Been a tough year. Down a few hundred after having 6 straight winning years.

 

[crawdads]

Gentlemen tonight is pure excellence. Almost like any nfl sunday, transition right into nba finals.

 

[crawdads]

 

[Toronto_Mike]

great call on Rose folks!

 

[crawdads]

Tim Mickelson ‏<s>@</s>goodwalkspoiled <small class="time"> 2m </small> Always proud to say I'm Phil's brother. He's a 7 time major champion in my book. 4 golf and 3 great kids. Happy Fathers Day Bro.


Great tweet.

‏<s>@</s>pgatour_brianw <small class="time"> 38s </small> Stricker not beaten up by play today, says golf is secondary in his life. Also, will skip British Open.

WTF

 

[Schrute]

So happy FIGJAM didn't win

 

[KJ]

So happy FIGJAM didn't win

:thumbsup2:

would be like the cubs winning the series, just can't have it

 

[Schrute]

I even pull against FIGJAM in the Ryder Cup

Blasphemy?

 

[KJ]

no, me too

 

[twinkie13]

[KJ]

[Schrute]

Great work GLB

 

[twinkie13]

Fuck I'm Good, Just Ask Me

fuck him

not being funny but he said this or this is just a slang term i never heard of

 

[KJ]

slang, from others on the tour. it's old but so true

 

[braves]

huuuuuge pet peeve of mine...

18th hole of a major championship should be a birdie hole. fuck, sucks all the drama out of the tourney when it isn't. Nbc should demand it. It's what made Torrey great in 2008

 

[braves]

par 4 521 yards, lol

 

[twinkie13]

yea braves I never thought about that but makes sense

I hate when majors are won in the clubhouse

 

[KJ]

he won it on the course, figgy lost it. not won in the clubhouse, lost on the course

i actually thought it was great after three kinda boring days

Honestly it kind of was a birdie hole. It just wan't labeled as such. It was a hole where 40% made 4 and 60% made 5. Sounds like a very birdieable par 5 to me though the number beside it indicated a par 4. Rose made a 4. FIGJAM made a 5 and lost by two. He essentially needed to eagle the hole to cause a playoff. No one made a 3 on the hole all day. It was a par 5 that was mis-labeled on the scorecard as a par 4. Great finishing hole IMO

so it wasn't a birdie hole, because they made it a par 4, add some yardage to it and make it a par 5.. it was the hardest hole on the course.

Right so you would have felt better if it were labeled a par 5 and the course was a par 71. Rose would have won at E and FIGJAM would have still been +2.

 

[braves]

no, I would have liked it better if the 18th was a hole you could score on, thought I made that clear in post 181

 

[braves]

 

[KJ]

i think the point is that scoring is subjective. u can always shoot one stroke better than the next guy, regardless of the label of par 4 or par 5

fwiw, the US Open should always be more "bogey" than "birdie" imo, especially on the finishing hole

 

[braves]

I understand that, I understand the USGA gets a hard on for it, I respect that, but the 18th the hardest hole on the course, ughh, I don't like it. Guess im in the minority

 

[twinkie13]

you know what i mean

Well I'm just happy Phil cemented his place as always the next best

More second place finishes in the US Open than total majors won

FIGJAM not so clutch

why? Is the US open supposed to make the pros look like hacks?

I am asking cuz I dont know

i agree with you....or at least what you are trying to say

 

[KJ]

yes, plain and simple

US Open is always tough, par is earned, not given

 

[braves]

who is better than him in this era besides tiger? Did anyone think he was better than Tiger

 

[twinkie13]

yes, plain and simple

US Open is always tough, par is earned, not given

same for British?

 

[twinkie13]

yes, plain and simple

US Open is always tough, par is earned, not given

also all I heard on Thursday was these guys were gonna shred this course and a -15 was gonna win it

what happened to make it a +1 win?

nicklaus was second place 19 times, was he clutch?
