De-sham-beau acts like he is totally innocent of of what's been going on.

No, he’s not. He knows what he’s doing—going back and forth with Brooks, just like Brooks is going back and forth with him, unless, of course, you’re referring to when all he did was walk by on a walkway during the interview. Look, they don’t like each other, and they are both poking at one another. Let’s sit back and enjoy it. I like both of them, albeit in different ways.

Bryson is not stupid, he knew exactly what he was doing. He knew that just his presence in his photobomb would be enough to anger b k. It was well orchestrated by Bryson, as childish as it was.

There is nothing in the video that even suggests that it was a photobomb. Stop making stuff up. Brooks heard stuff that irritated him. That’s all.

He’s trolling at this point. Nearly every remark he makes is either unfounded or a negative remark against him. I get it if you don’t like a guy, but at least try to be reasonably neutral when you have no evidence to support your thoughts.

To say my remark was unfounded is simply not true, nor is it rolling. I feel when a person is being interviewed on live television after a round you don't walk behind him and disturb the shoot, you find another way around so as not to interrupt, it's the respectful thing to do. You may feel differently, and that is your option, but I evidently feel differently than you that I thought he did it on purpose to disturb the interview.  This entire Petty Feud was originated by dechambeau when he criticized Koepka's physique back in January I think. Why did he open his mouth back then? It just shows his smart aleck ways. Also asking for relief from an ant hill was very unprofessional as well, as there was no anthill there. Now he is responsible for patrons being tossed from the memorial. It's like if you can't stand the heat stay out of the kitchen Bryson!

It goes beyond that. It’s years old. And the walkway was just there. The annoying thing was the metal spikes.

Ok, I didn't realize it was years old as you say. But I also think that Bryson is not ignorant and unaware what he was doing by walking behind bk with his metal spikes on. I'm not one much to believe in coincidences, I believe it was done purposely to p him off. Again, jmo, and others I would imagine.

Again… It’s a walkway.

Didn't it start with BK making some snide veiled remark about Bryson's pace of play?

So yes. I am struggling to tell if Koepka's pace of play complaint was valid or not however.

Bryson is known to play pretty slow. He has argued that with all the calculations he and his caddy make, he’s going pretty quickly. I’ve seen him play at a reasonable pace, and I’ve seen him play at snail’s pace. For me, I don’t mind BK’s comments; I like faster play.

Geeeeez man.  You just make crap up and have "feelings" and "opinions based on absolutely nothing. Here are the afcts:

1. Brooks is not a fan of Bryson.

2. It goes back a while.

3. Bryson kind of likes a little attention.

4. Bryson walked from an interview to his car or the locker-room or somewhere.

5. Billy Z adds a whole bunch of BS to fill in the blanks to invent a scenario based on how he "feels".

6. It isn't really that complicated.

Oh that explains why BK specifically said what he did. That is not really the most self-aware justification for slow play on BDC's part either. I think he needs a better publicity manager.

1)  a revelation everybody knows. 

2) Very specific

3) your opinion

4) yes, but enjoyed interrupting bk

5) sounds like you described your own approach. 

6) nobody ever said it was complicated. 

I'll make #7

7) it's not important enough to argue about. it's just fun discussion that is not worth dis'g anybody for.

They are both being gross at the moment. PIP was silly idea and we are seeing the consequences of it now.

This what the tour wanted apparently when it came up with PIP. This whole Bryson-Brooks feud reminds me of the one between the Magnificent Muraco and Superfly Snuka back in the early 1980s that got the WWF mainstream media attention and put them on a huge popularity roll after Vince McMahon took over from his father.

He talks about “the interview” and Bryson some in this video clip. He said he thinks it’s great for the game, and he also said that Bryson didn’t say anything to him to upset him, but that Bryson was “really loud” when he walked by him. FYI, the comments are dispersed throughout the video a bit as different questions are asked by reporters.

I think its ridiculous that fans are being tossed from something the players themselves started and are actively encouraging. This is the logical next step for taking their petty (made for media) feud to social media.  They created this atmosphere and they should end it but probably won't because it will be the "you bit off more than you can chew" scenario. Before I get lit up, anyone remember El Nino getting heckled by the NY crowd? Monty, Poulter, Sabbitinni, or Glen "All" Day? I never saw police calming the crowds.  

Ejecting fans is the right of the sponsor, and if someone is yelling in the middle of someone's backswing then throw them out. But for participating in the aftermath of "living in your head rent free gate", not so much.

    • I was laid off two months ago. Good severance, a 90 day layoff announcement regulation the company wanted to avoid so technically I'm still on the payroll for a few weeks, and a bunch of banked PTO, so I'm in a great spot and working on a startup idea I've been batting around with my brother for a while. That means I've got time to get to the gym! I'm at like 60-75 minutes 5x a week of strength training, and either a run or a bunch of time playing soccer or tennis with my daughter on the weekends. Stronger than I've been in forever. Up ~5 pounds of (noticeable!) muscle!
    • Do you have examples of exceptional scores versus their established handicap indexes?
    • Day 539, April 23, 2024 Mirror work once again. When I get back to swings, I'll just do it A. LOT.
    • A bit of background. The Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) runs an annual event known as "Team Play." It is a wildly popular match play competition where Men's Clubs across the region put together teams of 20+ golfers together to compete against other clubs in a 16 vs. 16 match. In any given year, approximately 80-100 clubs will participate. Each club is grouped into "pods" of 4, and will play 6 total matches - one home and one away match against the other 3 clubs. The winning club from each pod advances to the Team Play Playoffs - a single elimination format - until a winner is crowned.  Antelope Valley Country Club just advanced to the championship match for the 3rd consecutive year. They won the championship in both 2022 and 2023.  Based on my review of the match history from the past 3 years (linked below), they have won 21 consecutive team matches. Keep in mind, these are handicapped matches, so this is not just a case where a group of sticks bands together to dominate the poor amateurs other SoCal clubs. Even if these guys are grinders who never quit, play their best under pressure and routinely putt the lights out, the law of averages still say that a streak of that nature is mathematically impossible.  Is there any plausible explanation beyond institutionalized sandbagging throughout the club?
