Anyone watching?  I like watching these events and the NCAA’s as well.  Match play is great to watch.

Is it on now?  I'd love to watch, a young man from my home club is now 2 up with 7 to play, I'd love to see it live.

I’m watching a recording of the Round of 32. Not sure if they are televising the Round of 16?

Wait, Round of 16 is tomorrow at 11:00 on Peacock, then at 12:00 on the Golf Channel.

No, the 16 is over, tomorrow is the round of 8, tee times starting at 930, semifinals begin at 200.  Ill have to record the telecast, I think I'm playing tomorrow.  My young friend won again this afternoon, really impressive play against some really good players.

I changed the title. Two things.

  • Please include the year, as this event occurs every year, so…
  • It's not the Men's U.S. Amateur. It's open to anyone, of any gender.

The U.S. Women's Amateur, on the other hands, is not. And includes the word "Women's."

Right. But they are televising it in the morning.  I don’t know why they do that? I suspect it’s the PGA.

Anyway, who are you watching/rooting for?

Alex Price plays at my home club, his dad is on the bag.  I've known his mom and dad for more than 25 years, great people, and Alex is a really nice kid.  Alex is the only Div III player still playing, a real underdog.

the past couple of weeks, I've been watching a lot of the NCAA's and Amateur Tournaments on the golf channel and i like watching them because even though they are "amateur's" they are so damn good!!!!!!!!   but even they do make some mistakes, but their fixes are good too!!       

I think a lot of it, for me anyways, is even though my golf game sucks!!  I'm always trying to learn from everyone!  even if they are on TV.  

But it also makes me think our game of golf has a damn good future because of these people

One of the strangest moments on Sunday was Ben Carr going for the green on the 13th after Bennett went OB.

I couldn’t believe Wilcox didn’t stop and talk to Carr after Bennett was lying 4 in the rough just off the green.

While not a Tin Cup moment, it sure would have been the time for the caddie to implore a wedge-wedge layup and win the hole.

I actually enjoyed this more than the BMW. Cantlay’s bunker shot on 18 was impressive. But my goodness he’s a bore. I was pulling for Carr, still a great fight to come back from down 5 to the 36th hole.

Felt the same way. A big wow moment for a missed opportunity!

      Was this the course with 9 blind shots in the first 9 holes?

      Woof. Not good. 8:40 to 8:50, blah. I know the grip is turned a bit to the left in that part of the video (face is closed a bit), but… no. Not that.

      Eh. You're tricking yourself. You can still miss right or left, and what you've created is a situation where you HAVE to miss (but the right amount) to make the putt. That's not for me.

      I can see a point in this.  If you play a straigth 3 footer with a square face aiming at the hole, you can miss both ways, with a close face or an open one. If you aim rigth an close the face at impact (like tiger used to do), physically you can still miss left or rigth but mentally you are only missing left (closed face) and having only 1 miss can give you a boost in confidence. I putt this way on fade putts and aim left and open the face on draw putts, never liked the uncerteinty of putting square to the target.  I apply something like this on approach shots, only use low or high shots and for middle shots I use a low shot with more loft ot a high shot with less loft. This shots are always what they meat low or high, a middle one can go a little towards the high and the low depending on the AoA of each shot making it mentally a little more uncertain what is going to be.
