Cool to see Phil chatting with Jon’s lady while Jon stays loose. 

It only now dawns on me that Rahm won the Phil Mickelson award in college (update: no he didn't) and went to the same university as Phil (update: am confirming this)

If Rahm holds on for the win, will he be the first Basque major winner?

I am now hearing that Louis laid up to sixty nine yards.  Nice.

What a major!  This is easily one of the three best major championship weekends of 2021 so far.

Proud of Louis though.. except for tee shot on 17th he was ice all day. Did not fold like the other 'studs'.

Cannot agree more. Enjoyed it thoroughly. Rahm got his redemption so a great story there too..

At TST we have the no sixes challenge.  I have been thinking periodically and marking when I sometimes see pros with no fives (or worse).  Rahm came close:  his fourth and thirteenth holes were fives, the rest were four or lower. 

Maybe I should gather some examples of pros having all fours and below and make a thread.

Glad to see someone finally step up and take the tournament versus someone just hanging on.

Davis doesn't want to mention he was caddying yesterday and is presenting the trophy today?

Why don’t you like Rahm? Not that it matters. Curiosity. 

Just rubbed me the wrong way being a complete hothead douche.  He may have gotten “better” at controlling himself, but I still choose not to care for him.

I get it m, but at least he doesn’t take it out on others. People get hot sometimes when things matter to them. He’s not like EVR or others who throw clubs or hit tee markers—THAT kind of behavior does it for me.

He threw many a clubs 5-6 years ago and literally blew up on his caddie numerous times on camera.  Thats the Rahm that made me not interested in seeing him win big tournaments.  That’s all.  Just don’t care for him.  I guess we all have our preferences.  I am a huge fan of Jordan but others dislike him and seem to think he’s “whiny”.

Part of growing up. My hats off to him for growing and being better. We’re too quick to be unforgiving these days. We should recognize when a person makes a change for the better and not hold grudges.

I agree with you. I don’t find him whiny. I like him a lot. He’s very respectful and easy to root for. Class act.

    • Day 154 - Played 18 with some buddies. Started off pretty terrible, but put together some good holes. 
    • When it comes to set up routine in regards to alignment, I generally prefer my students to: 1) clubface, 2) chest and 3) feet. When the foot alignment happens before chest alignment, we tend to have issues.  I use this example often. I did an introductory flight for flight school, as a student gave me a certificate for it. As most new flyers are, I was staring at the instruments trying to be perfect. I was doing a 30 degree turn and didn’t realize the nose dropped. It had felt normal. The instructor said I had to learn what flat/level is in the air. Kind of a funny thing to say. He said to look at the horizon and nose and recognize their relationship, in order to determine level.  In golf, we see straight from behind the ball. But, when we set up to the ball, we lose what “straight” is. Have someone hold an alignment stick across your chest when you are in full set up and recognize where your lead shoulder is pointing in relation to your target. 
    • Day 86. Some technique work followed by short game practice. Need to learn to flight the wedges down more. 
    • Day 38 (8 Jun 24) - nephew’s HS graduation celebration about 2hrs from home  - took most of the day so did some mirror work this evening after getting fro the event.
