I don't think Zinger & Curtis like each other

Curtis could throw some shade when he wanted . Him and Superman have something in common, back to back USOpen.

 

[Gandolf]

I don't think Zinger & Curtis like each other

They're both multi-network retreads.

 

[Gandolf]

Justin a big disappointment today

 

[pressitup]

If Special K can pull out a win and Rahm can get into Top5, I might get out of this weekend.
Don't think I won a matchup.

 

[Gandolf]

Might be the shot that wins the tournament right there.

 

[Gandolf]

Azinger is moving to NBC, I think in time for the Open.

His lie sucks

 

[ProV1Colt]

Is every shot a beauty?
Is that the only adjective he knows

 

[Gandolf]

His lie sucks

Only 20 feet away

 

[bones]

talking about the 3 wood...the putt is left & he's been struggling off the tee

 

[bones]

going to come down to 17 for Gary I say

 

[takeit]

Someone needs to tell Rose he is playing at sea level and it's cold

 

[bones]

I think he just not hitting it well...2 days row

 

[Gandolf]

Rose has been in bunkers on about a quarter of the holes this week.

 

[takeit]

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.

Played today. Shot a 44 on the front and a 38 on the back. I need to warm up with 9. lol

 

[bones]

Damnit...almost 3 shot lead and now a little knee knocker

 

[Gandolf]

I realize its an iconic course but about half the holes at Pebble seem fairly pedestrian, namely 1, 2, 3, 5, 11, 12, 13, 15 and 16. 30 players under par....I think its past its prime as a major championship course.

 

[Teapot9]

Gary got this.... he’s been steady Eddie for the vast majority of the day.... Kansas cool

 

[bones]

did Gary's ball roll in divot on 16?

That is akin to blasphemy as you know.

 

[Gandolf]

That is akin to blasphemy as you know.

Well aware. But 15 and 16 are a bit of a joke coming down the stretch. Irons off the tee, short irons in.

No wind, kinda wet. Players falling off.

I wouldn’t say past it’s prime yet.

 

[bones]

did Gary's ball roll in divot on 16?

They say zero...like they did not watch shot

 

[takeit]

did Gary's ball roll in divot on 16?

Yep. They need to change the rules as no one should be penalized (hitting out of a divot) in the fairway

 

[bones]

Tee shot on 17 is what Gary has left. He pars 17 he can make 18 relatively easy hole (pending Koepka eagle chance)

 

[Teapot9]

Par par and it’s a wrap for the pride and joy from TopCity

 

[bones]

bad

 

[Teapot9]

Oh boy

 

[takeit]

Do you chip it?

 

[Gandolf]

Do you chip it?

If green is back to front in slope you have to chip.

 

[takeit]

I do. I chip much better than I putt

 

[takeit]

WOW

 

[Teapot9]

Great touch.... had to chip there

 

[Gandolf]

Three irons and its over.

 

[bones]

Gary makes par on 17. He hits 4 iron, 6 iron wedge

 

[Gandolf]

Bet every golfer in the tourney would've taken -10 on Thursday morning, yet its going to lose.

 

[Teapot9]

Alright Gary just ease into this one and bring it back to Kansas

 

[bones]

7 iron?

 

[Gandolf]

Cinderella story....looks like he's got an 8 iron....

Jayhawks around the world are flying even higher tonight.

So glad he showed that he could close.

The guy is a player, like Reno said it’s always one round that does him in.

This is awesome. So happy for that guy and his family. Total class act.

 

[Gandolf]

Exclamation point!

 

[Teapot9]

 

[bones]

gotta sign the card...ask Di Vicenzo

 

[bones]

not one 3 putt...wow

 

[B.A.R.]

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

156-165

 

[B.A.R.]

Played today. Shot a 44 on the front and a 38 on the back. I need to warm up with 9. lol

Yeah, I need 7-8 to get going. I'm a back 9 player no doubt.

 

[Teapot9]

So basically no one here can warm up on the driving range?

I can, doesn't matter often.
