I think he's doing this to avoid violating 10.2b(4) and 10.3b(3). Notice how he goes through his entire routine with his caddie in a position to check his alignment.  Caddie moves out, then he goes through the entire routine again, so that he meets the clarification of "if alignment help is given but the player backs away ..."

 

That makes sense, but I can see how that would be annoying to someone watching that all day

I love listening to the talking NBC/Golf Channel heads emphasize how the fans are under strict social distancing rules, as I then see consistent video of fans not practicing social distancing rules.

Hey wait a minute....those guys are both big hitters. No way they can be that far off the lead! They have such an advantage with their distances! Imagine how hard it must be for a shorter hitter like

My man Wolfe made the cut and is ONLY 9 back. Well, OK, he's 9 back but he's only 5 behind Koepka and Koepka's only 4 back...

Spieth is looking much better than he has in a long time. I hope he keeps it up, a win can help shake off the some of the stress of the past few years.

Yeah, guy is on 59 watch. (Oops i lied. Either way, its a good round) Needs to birdie 18. He said he feels good tee to green now, just needed more putts to fall and he’s clearly getting it today.

I really like Xander....but damn, hard not to pull for Spieth. I do think that if he plays well but loses he’ll still have a great kick to getting some of his mojo back. If he collapses....that’ll hurt bad. But If he wins....it will be so good for his morale I’d even gamble that he wins again this year.

Spieth playing well is good for golf. I firmly believe that. I forgot how well he can putt. Very cool to watch.

He holed quite a few great putts. Was nice to see.

I may be wrong, but I think the media trying to anoint him the next Tiger messed with his head and hurt is game.  I hope he can avoid similar issues if he starts to really get it going again.

Watching the replay this morning, Xander Schauffele is a very boring player to watch. Just plain dull.

Maybe,  but if I had his game I wouldn't care if somebody called me boring!   😏   Not everyone can be a PReed.

He's a machine. Most machines are boring to watch, except for a ferris wheel or a roller coaster.

Just like the days of McEnroe vs Ivan Lendl....I’d watch JM any day over Lendl. Just a pure bore.

Neither Jordan nor Xander golfing well enough to win.  Still 12 holes left so they are not out of it but they need a few good holes real quick.

I really want one of them to win.

The 2 leaders at the start of the day aren’t looking good. Down 3 now. They better start making some birdies. +2 ain’t going to get it done.

      Best Budget Golf Ball

      By NHpro ·

      Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.

      Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.

      Best Budget Golf Ball

      By NHpro ·

      Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.

      The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.

      7 Wood

      By ZenShot ·

      I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
