I enjoyed Phil the announcer but does it not seem weird from a COVID perspective that they just let him in the booth?

If you grouped Tiger with two random club pros, you still wouldn’t be able to put together a group using the rest of the field that could equal his group’s majors or PGA Tour wins totals.

The rules are made up and the points don’t matter

A lot can change but fun to think it’s feasible Koepka & Bryson get paired at this point 👹

Agreed.  When Finch said "we learn to not make predictions" or whatever, I wanted him to reply with "well, what's the fun in that?" Also, he's gone now so he doesn't get to gloat, but he did say Li would birdie 6 and/OR 7, and he just did exactly that sooooo ...

 Kind of gave me a refreshing Tony Romo vibe.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Haha. He thought he was Karl Malone. 

I turned it off when they started pouring on the commercials. This is the first round I’ve watched for more than an hour since like, last year? The whole production, while I realize it’s a hard job, I just hate the announcing, and the shot selection and everything about network broadcast golf. Pretty much what the No Laying Up guys say. I can’t go two minutes without rolling my eyes. Don’t ever DJ Ian Baker Finch.

NLU make really good points. 

If you missed watching yesterday with ESPN, I’m sorry- coverage was sooo good!

Also, I really enjoyed when Phil was in the booth. He gave good insights about what was actually happening—and why some players struggle or are better than others at certain skills (Finau’s putting for instance)

I even enjoyed Bryson's 95 foot putt although I kind of feel about Bryson like @Vinskfeels about Koepka! :-)

I think it's set up to be an interesting day tomorrow.

Looking forwards to the final round.  DJ leading and Koepka with a chance to 3-peat. 

I hope DJ shows up and Koepka starts off with a snowman.

I put money down on DJ right from the start ...covering like 6 of the top 9 coming into the last day ... 

my wallet wants Champ / Scottie to pull out their first majors ...

 As long as DJ puts alway Brooks I'll be happy ....getting far too big for his boots

I like that the rough is penalizing wayward drives. It’s not quite Bethpage USO bad but enough. And the lack of sand in the bunkers keeping them from spinning the ball. 

I think Mickelson made a lot of great points and was a breath of fresh air but he could dial it down a little. 

Not rooting for anyone in particular, just hoping for a lot of guys battling it out at the end.

Good point Turtleback.  My bad.  Yes, it takes a Gaussian distribution to achieve a bell curve.  Sometimes there can be skewed distribution that doesn't produce a bell curve, then you end up with what I would call a multi-modal distribution or graph.  Sorta like the distribution of my golf shots.

You can call it whatever you want, but the extreme ends of a normal distribution have been thoroughly analyzed and has nothing to do with a "multi-modal distribution" which is something completely different.  Don't become the Leo Gorcey of math terms.

I had that exact same comparison.  I like them both as announcers.  Which is kind of ironic as t was a fan of neither as players.

      Golf Tips for Hitting Longer Driver (Tips for Both Men and Women)

      By Wilkerson Allen ·

      Hi everyone, I'm looking to improve my driving distance. I’ve been playing golf for a few years now, and while my accuracy has gotten better, I’m still struggling to get the distance I want off the tee. I play regularly with both men and women, so any advice that applies to both would be fantastic. For some context, I’ve tried adjusting my stance and swing, but I feel like I might be missing some key golf techniques or drills. Has anyone here successfully increased their driving distance? What specific tips or changes worked for you? Whether it's about grip, posture, swing mechanics, or even mental approach, I’m open to all suggestions! Looking forward to hearing your experiences and advice! Thanks!

      My Swing (klineka)

      By iacas ·

      I don't know… The TaylorMade Tiger Woods grinds were decent. I like narrow soles with a lot of bounce (lots of camber) and good heel/toe relief.

      Day 33 (3 Jun 24) - In between working on my bass guitar and its wiring issues, I was able to take the putter and roll some putts on the carpet in the shop.  Spent time with the lead arm as I usually putt with it tucked close  and then doing the lead arm chicken wing.  Interesting how the feel and pace is different.  Had seen a fellow golfer using it last week when we were playing.  Overall it was good to do an easy day of putting for pace and overall distance control from 10' in.
