PGA Players, ‘We just want it to be fair.’ What a dumb comment. They’re all playing the same course. It is fair. Doesn’t matter if the fairways are 5yds wide and 3’ rough. It’s the same for all the pl

It would be nice to see some more of the amateurs play. We see the pros almost every weekend

It's a major. The U.S. Open. I couldn't disagree more.

That’s a strong leaderboard. 6 out of the top 8 are major winners.

Tiger over the first 2 rounds was frustrating.  He did well to not be +10 his game is so bad.  Just don't think he's capable anymore when the courses demand accuracy. 

Huh?

He couldn't have shot much higher today, according to TigerTracker and others. And yeah, he's tops in GIR and top 15 in SG:ATG:

How nice is it to have prime time golf on Thursday and Friday that isn't the "Battle at Bighorn"? All courtesy of Fox. I have to say, when they cover a sporting event, they dive in head first!

The drop areas they have for balls up against the grandstands (like on 14), do they change the locations every day? Wouldn't they get pretty beat up?

IDK but I love seeing this.  They do this at the Open too where the drop areas have really long grass.  One of my pet peeves about pro tour golf is seeing a guy blow one way off the course and then get relief due to a grandstand or TV tower.

You could hear the iPhone default text chime as Phil was about to hit his 3rd just now on 18. One thing I've noticed going to a couple tournaments the past few years is how common that it. Lot of people don't bother to silence their f***ing phone.

After 34 holes he had one hole worse than par - (a double). Then he bogied his 35th and 36th holes. What tournament are you watching?

As they're fond of saying on TV, still a lot of golf to play. Maybe if I watch enough I can start to channel my inner Rory. Cheese but he's got a great swing...

Just don't channel your inner Patrick Reed.

Woodland seems like a mini Koepka. Has the same strut, same style and demeanor. Big hitter. Bores me a bit but he seems to be putting himself up there more in majors. Led after 36 at Bellerive too.

Honestly have no clue who is going to win this tournament. Pebble is a course where I feel like a surprise winner can ermerge like 2010, but there’s so many big names 3, 4, 5 and 6 back.

Maybe they can start charging the pros for range balls to really bring that feeling back.
