United States Open @ Torrey Pines Discussion Thread

Any information is good information. But you are correct it won’t be the same coming back. I don’t think enough emphasis is put on how poorly struck putts react to break. I purposely won’t watch guys putt who I play with on a regular basis for that very reason. Extremely misleading information… looking forward to a great weekend! Zalatoris didn’t have one birdie either round. Very shocking…

Phil played damn well. He missed about 3 relatively easy birdie putts very early.

He hit the ball great except for about 2 shots

Nothing pisses me off more than thinking I'll get a good read on a guys putting only to watch him knock it three feet offline and get no info. Or leave it 6 feet short.

 

[RBTrojan]

Nothing worse than a guy pulling a putt causing a false read… you pure a stroke and it doesn’t react the same… I love it when a guy says”that’s weird mine broke and yours didn’t”… I wonder why?

Same can be said for Xander. He missed two gimme birdie putts and should’ve birdied 18. He could easily be at -5. Dude was one of the best putters on tour and then goes to armlock before the US Open. What the hell. I bet he lost 4 strokes putting today.

0-4 in Open plays..let’s see if I can go for the sweep. Sat 2 ball plays-

Morikawa-109 over JT
Deki -136 over A Scott

 

[Inspekdah]

Mori at 25-1 with a little momentum looks decent. Sitting on Rahm 10-1 3x, Xander 18-1 1.5x, Mori 22-1 1.5x. Might just ride it out.

Not that there is any reason to bet Kisner in the US Open particularly with his results this year, but if you think of doing so you need to watch from 3:15 to 3:42.

Kisner tells you about his chances of victory..

Kisner is living up to his own prediction

 

[bones]

Was listening to PGA Tour Radio. Rahm has hit only 36% of fairways ( I think they said round #2, maybe the tourney). In any case, he has it under par both rounds.

If he improves driving, I think he's the winner. I want to bet him...but I am not

 

[DaddyMcIlhon]

This is gonna sound shitty but with Bland and Henley on top of the leaderboard the leaderboard really starts at Louis/Wolff -4. The former can win sure but highly unlikely they keep this up two more days. Anyone from +1 to -4 can win this. Rahm is the favorite but there’s plenty of guys around him who can make a move. My gut is telling me Scottie will make a move for some reason (why?) but I’m not betting it. I’ve got Xander, Brooks, Collin and added Rory last night at 40-1. Probably ride those 4 out and hope one of them pops. Good luck to everyone rest of the way.

I'd say Baker had the right club.

 

[RBTrojan]

The amount of shots hitting the stick is just incredible…. Sergio’s was just a ridiculously bad break

Never a better day for promoting hologram pins, it needs to happen sooner than later

fkg Wolff on 9

 

[Coolslaw1]

Rahm doesn't seem to have it today.

 

[GSlap]

Lol at Henley

 

[Coolslaw1]

took Bland at the + money for today.

 

[KJ]

Seeing a bit of folding on the horizon tomorrow

 

[bones]

Rahm doesn't seem to have it today.

Ditto Mr X...Rahm still has a chance for good round

 

[bones]

Bryson bringing it

 

[RBTrojan]

Big Beefy looks dialed in. Looked like he drove it into an old divot on the previous hole.

Russell Henley trying not to let his mind wonder

Holy shit she's cute but the toes look like roots of an oak

 

[KJ]

Henley just treating this like a muni

 

[GSlap]

Is that Henley's chick ?

wife...she's a successful artist in Charleston SC

That's a southern belle right there

 

[ProV1Colt]

Having some phone issues. Haven’t been on to much unless it loads.
Here I am.
what a good day today.
Fathers Day should be awesome!!

Love all the stories

 

[bones]

She's a strong powerful woman

 

[bones]

It depends on Wolff making birdie on 18 on whether I have a winning day

 

[bones]

after his 2nd shot it looks unlikely

 

[bones]

it stopped short?

 

[KJ]

Gotta chance, that thing got lucky to make the ridge

Wolff has not looked good today...all over the map

lip out

 

[pressitup]

sick of hearing all this mental health shit about athletes.
it's why cant win if you dont steel yourself

 

[SIGO]

Haven’t been able to watch a minute of this. Who we thinking wins it?

Bryson - I love when the world tries to ridicule success. Jealousy

I have a more nuanced opinion, but you are correct sir

 

[Rockfish]

Not in love with any of this, but I'll go with Rahm, Henley, and Morikawa

 

[Big daddy naught]

Thinking Louie wins it

 

[ScopeY]

Off memory,, nobody has beaten 67 (-4)

That would eliminate anyone not in the top 8

I dont think Hughes or Henley hold off as both are losing strokes off the tee first 3 days. This applies to scheffler too

Wolff/Rahm would need to be perfect and hope nobody above them improves, probably tough for them.

Leaves rory/bryson/louieooey

Rory the only one up there with losing strokes putting, which is the most variable stat...any return to the averages benefits him over the rest of the guys up there.

 

[ScopeY]

I may go rory/bryson...and a sprinkle on rahm/wolff

 

[B.A.R.]

Sprinkled a bit of Rahm...and DJ...

Bryson was sitting there at 2000 yesterday morning and I never hut submit. Damn... Think he obviously could be the guy.

Rory would be good for golf.

Louie is a deserving guy...

Obviously want something wild to happen and get X, Collin, DJ or Rahm to the top.

Happy Father's Day to all of ya.

You can get a Louie,Rory or Bryson Win ticket with my book for -125

 

[Ryno14]

Extremely juicy but I’m taking Rory -0.5 -170 over Henley R4

Crazy what one day will do

Yesterday I had Rahm/Louie/Xander vs field at +125/-150 v field available

 

[Timh]

I played adjusted ML before Round 4 on Rory +557 and Louie +305. GL fellas and Happy Father's Day.

 

[HUNT]

Lfg Rory and Rahm!
