2019 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach Discussion

Koepka would be my choice, but there's a reason nobody has won 3 in a row.

Rose has something like 34 one putts which is amazing. He's missed a ton of greens just short or in bunker

Woodland hit the ball almost perfectly yesterday

Rose, Koepka, Woodland, but rooting for Gary

Knew him through a friend that worked the bagroom at one of the 2 private clubs in Lawrence. He’s a year ahead of me. Guy was always nice and a class act. Slashed it around a few times together. All around athlete, played ball at Washburn in Topeka. What I find fascinating is that he really didn’t take the game seriously until after college. Dude could be the longest driver on tour but he prefers to keep it in the fairway on a regular basis.

Here’s to you Gary! Get it done. RCJ

 

[ProV1Colt]

anyone know what shows Rose is wearing?
Love the grey Nike

 

[ProV1Colt]

Molinari is wearing the grey Nike today.
Those are slick
And Koepka’s grey Nike pullover.
That’s my style.

Joe Buck & golf = fingernails & chalkboard

 

[ProV1Colt]

I hope we get a special rd out of someone today.

 

[Gandolf]

Rory falls off the map.

 

[LeRinkRat]

I hope we get a special rd out of someone today.

"The Mole" is out of his Hole. [-4] for tourney [-6] thru #8. both Koepka and Oosthuizen birdie the 1st to get to [-8]. OOPS!!! "Mole" a double for [-2] drops to [-4] on #9

 

[Gandolf]

Early statement for Rose. Feel like he’ll grab this trophy. Putter has been immaculate.

 

[LeRinkRat]

Good God Koepka is STRONG!!! drives in the fescue on #2 THEN in the fescue AGAIN his 2nd shot BUT whips it on 5 feet away and saves par. most players would break a wrist

 

[Teapot9]

Early statement for Rose. Feel like he’ll grab this trophy. Putter has been immaculate.

Lotta golf left......

Gary gets one and Rose gives one back

 

[takeit]

Really like the white pants / navy top outfits. It's a winners combo.

 

[takeit]

How far do you guys hit your 7 iron? I'm at 130ish.

 

[Gandolf]

Woodland just moved one ahead of Tiger 2000.

This is one heck of a Crosby!

 

[Gandolf]

How far do you guys hit your 7 iron? I'm at 130ish.

I play it to 160 in good conditions.

 

[Teapot9]

Really like the white pants / navy top outfits. It's a winners combo.

Agree. Winners wear dark colors.

But I’m all about the orange top and Wilson cap today.

 

[Teapot9]

How far do you guys hit your 7 iron? I'm at 130ish.

It’s my 170 club give or take

 

[takeit]

Whoever dressed Speith today was color blind

 

[ProV1Colt]

Brooks

 

[takeit]

mrtake is 185 with his 7 iron. bastard

 

[takeit]

so with these ctg contests, I don't even look at the score - I count points. Do you guys do it too?

 

[ProV1Colt]

Brooks May Eagle 6 the way he is hitting it today

 

[ProV1Colt]

I

i try

 

[ProV1Colt]

Damn Woodland expecting twins again?
He must have some swimmers

 

[Gandolf]

Ugly horseshoe Justin

 

[Teapot9]

So what happens if someone hits one of Fox’s greenside mics and it takes a ridiculous bounce?

 

[bones]

Damn Gary...please hold here for par.

Its hard to root for a non-major winner in this situation. The pressure is large

*Yes!

[Teapot9]

Woodland looks cool calm and collected out there. This stage isnt too big for the Jayhawk. This is his moment.

 

[Gandolf]

Kinda love playing just nine these days.

 

[ProV1Colt]

Kinda love playing just nine these days.

9 is perfect especially twilight in the summer

 

[ProV1Colt]

I keep waiting on Woodland to blow up. But he is in a zone today.

 

[takeit]

Kinda love playing just nine these days.

I feel like I hit my stride on or around hole 13 so 9 would be bad for me...

 

[Teapot9]

Everything Woodland is doing is smooth. He’s playing his game and playing against the course and not the field.

 

[Gandolf]

I feel like I hit my stride on or around hole 13 so 9 would be bad for me...

By 13 I'm either super into it trying to shoot a number or counting the holes to the end and trying Phil the Thrill hero shots.

 

[Gandolf]

Rose needs to club up one on every shot.

And here comes Koepka.

 

[Gandolf]

"Felt like a must make for Justin Rose to likely stay within....a couple."

What a linguist that Joe Buck.

 

[Teapot9]

Koepka is a robot when he wants to be. Unbelievable.

Nice. As I’m typing he goes into the greenside bunker.

 

[ProV1Colt]

And now it starts

 

[pressitup]

The banner the guy was just waving behind Woodland said, "Lennon murder truth.com"(not going to put it in a link)

Looks like Stephen King actually killed John Lennon. Who knew?

 

[bones]

Woodland looks quick from the top on his missed fairway at 9 & 11

 

[bones]

Rose needs to club up one on every shot.

And here comes Koepka.

2 days in a row

 

[Teapot9]

View attachment 40115I’m glad my old man has this kind of confidence in my abilities.

 

[Gandolf]

Pro shot there from Woodland.

 

[Gandolf]

FFS Rose you're at sea level

 

[Teapot9]

errant tee shot, that’s ok, he’ll make par

 

[bones]

errant tee shot, that’s ok, he’ll make par

Love your tude...but I think Gary is fading

 

[Gandolf]

Koepka rushed that wedge a bit.

Rose thinks he's already at Portrush and can bounce all his shots into the green.

 

[pressitup]

I don't remember 'zinger being such a bore as a color commentator.
