Louis goes to minus nine with a birdie at four. Louis says I am good, and I can prove it.

Woodland needing to wake up jumps into the Sea.

Reavie went 4 5 4. He did not hear my prediction.

Koepka and woodland continue to shine.

10 and 13 there shortly

Koepka makes the putt. Minus 10. Three out of four holes birdied.

Woodland looking sad, nails the approach.

 

Nails it!!!

Maybe I’m in the minority here, but I’m disappointed that the US Open is not a true US Open this week. I understand the weather has a lot to do with it, but I also feel the USGA has given in a little bit to the players demands of making the setup easier.

I'm right there with you. Part of me wishes the USGA had said "You don't like playing for $12M? Then piss off. There are thousands who have tried to take your place. We've made some mistakes, yes, but not nearly as many as you think and we're trying to create a difficult test, not a PGA Tour course setup. Suck it up and play golf, or don't. We don't very much care."

It’s a birdie fest at the US Open. Players got their wish. They got a much easier Open.

[Joboggi]

The defense for Pebble is the sea breeze, which did not show up.

Koepka with his fourth birdie.

Rose into the rough, ball is just visible.

Woodland's approach says par is coming

Rose recovery is ok

they hired Jason Gore as the first-ever player relations director.

Whoever Jason Gore is, the dude earned his pay check. The article above is full of gushing player praise for Pebble this week.

Right now money is on Koepka.

Woodland taps in for par.

Rose PAR by a lip out

[HOF19]

Well ESPN will be happy …….Should be a lot of "good/great shots "  or birdie putt highlights from this US Open .

[Joboggi]

Rose schools woodland

Koepka shorts the bunker recovery

Woodland with shirt par putt

 

Louis just misses. That does not count though

[HOF19]

Baseball juices the ball ……PGA make the course more playable ….Myths or facts ?

[Zippo]

Nice job by Hovland!

[Joboggi]

Koepka par

Woodland par

Advantage woodland on the way to the park five sixth

Koepka at seven leaves a birdie try

Woodland drove at six in the fairway, in layup territory.

Rose abaft the bunkers on six

Koepka misses seven birdie try

Rose and Woodland should birdie six

No koepka birdie on Six and seven will be telling.

Woodland gets ball on the pitch, no birdie for you

Koepka will get at least a bogey or shoot a miracle at 8

Woodland in pot bunker looking at bogey.

Rose with a birdie try

Koepka will par. That could win him the cup

Woodland should par 7 after great recovery.

Koepka loses one at 8.

Rose misses birdie 12 footer goes by

That was Tiger's lowest single-round score in the U.S. Open in 10 years. Pretty wild coming after 4 bogeys in his first 6 holes and 54 holes of bleh.

Hard to believe the first 6 holes cost him all week. Scored +3 on them. Compare that to Woodland and Koepka who played them in -10.
