Partly what others have said. Just seems to demand a very one dimensional style of golf to win here, but maybe that’s because BK is way out ahead doing what he does (which would probably be successful on most golf courses).

Ill probably get murdered for this but I feel like a few of the USPGA and US Open courses have been a bit samey of late. 

Maybe that’s because they use some of the same courses and players play a similar game nowadays because it works. Besides when DJ won his major, even Furyk as a shorter hitter was competitive. ZJ hung around on this one for a little while as did others. BK is just playing other worldly. The golf course doesn’t demand anything extra- he’s just doing it better than everyone else.

Bethpage Black begins with B and ends with K.  It was fairly obvious in retrospect.

Erin Hills, Chambers Bay, and Pinehurst are samey?

Honest question - why do the N.Y. fans like Phil so much?

You'd be amazed what some people will tolerate for an attractive partner.  For example, there was this girl who smoked like a chimney, but ...

Anyway, I'm getting off topic. 

Speaking of smoked, that opening drive by HV3!

That hundred grand I put on Harold Varner III is beginning to look better.

You bet on him to finish second?

Candy bars always look delicious, especially when balanced upon a professional athlete. 

For optimal results with a candy bar, though, drop it from several feet in the air.  That's why the ones you get from vending machines taste so good.

For the same reason all of Derek Jeter's smokeshow GFs put up with his chewing. If you have money and fame, they'll date you if you're missing teeth and have green hair.

Also, you'd have to be nuts to put a hundred grand on Varner. I don't think the guy has even posted a top-10.

The biggest disappointment in this tournament is the fact that I'm not getting a free driver.

I like that BK went over to help Varner find his ball. I like him a little bit more now.

Right.  He played "ready golf" and then waited until the 2:55 mark to help Varner find his ball.  Varner's caddie and he need to practice this routine... they were such rookies wasting their 3 minutes.  Both were walking/looking in the same spots.  The rest of us know you don't do that.  You spread out.  My foursome would have found his ball!

He’s not playing that bad given the conditions. Johnson just been playing really good today. Brooks should be able to hang on though.

Koepka-affiliated partisans upset that we were willing DJ into the win. ;-)
