I didn’t know his Abuela passed away. I read somewhere that she raised him. He played well in tough conditions and took the penalty news well too.

They have been switching camera angles or panning up above the ball when players are placing their ball on their ballmarks.

I bet they start to pan away on chips now too.

Whether or not that was a penalty. Rules problems like this are bad for business. Watch for a subtle switch in camera angles in the upcoming weeks.

I assume you're referencing DL3 with this.  While it's true his dad was a country club employee, he was a fairly renown and respected teaching pro. 

I mean, technically Arnold Palmer was also the son of a country club employee :-)

I don’t think that is able to be seen by any person’s perspective without camera aid.

Looks like no penalty and the infraction falls under the Anna Nordqvist Rule.😁...2017 USWO and the cameraman handed Brittany Lang her 1st major.

Rahm should thank Anna....a fellow Sun Devil.

Did everyone see Rahm's wife's wedding ring?....YUGE and I assume near flawless too.

Huh? Rather minimizing it. His dad was a pro and played in the 1964 Masters and was a nationally known instructor. Davis came from money. I’m just saying he had everything he needed...nice clubs, nice course to play ....just saying he had all the advantages many kids don’t. No biggie. He’s a bore either way.

I am not a John Rahm fan but that was not a Patrick Reed moment...

With the long rough that probably happened 100 times this week, but no cameramen were doing close-ups.  Must have been Bryson's favorite camera guy.  😀

I know you try/claim to be the forum's FUNNY BOY

Kudos....Candidate for Post of the Year!....LMAO.

Looks like the penalty has been assessed, costing Rahm 40% of his victory margin.

I find DL III to be kind of bland too.He was a good player, but he just isn't very exciting on air. I really hope Colin Montgomerie will become a color analyst once he retires from the Champions Tour. I know some people don't like him. However, he knows the game and actually has a sense of humor.

Rahm handled all of that really well. 

True, but to be fair it is pretty easy to handle the assessment of penalty strokes well when you've already won, and by enough that no penalty assessment will change that.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

They have had him on Sky here in the UK. He's unbearable - almost as bad as Faldo.

What if they allowed him to swear and use those great Scottish insults during the broadcast? That would be fun.

I'm curious if the pace of play has been affected by not having spectators.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

Bryson hitting the 357 yard bomb...

I like that Jordan wanted him to go for it. Not trying to egg him on, but was glad to see him go for it.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
