No thread on US Women's Open???  Shocking!

?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnbc-sports-production

favicon-16x16.png After an early 10, Nelly Korda shockingly shoots 80 at U.S. Women's Open

Korda made a 10 on her third hole Thursday and failed to break 80 at Lancaster Country Club.

I love watching Nelly, but she seems to struggle in our nation's Open.

That’s rough. After her incredible run lately she puts three balls in the water. Made me think of Tiger’s 10 at the 12th on Augusta, also with three submarines.

Round one had three amateurs in the top ten and 20 players shoot over 80, and the top player is already out of it? Ouch.

No complaints from me. Every  major should test every shot  a  golfer  has.

Same dumb schtick since joining.

It seems like any small mistake is exponentially exacerbated in the U.S. Open set up.  This tournament seems to be a very good test on identifying who makes the least mistakes - not who makes the best shots.

In this case they are  playing a  course where a  mistake  means a  bogey  instead  of a  par.

I am hoping Minjee Lee can put together another good round tomorrow and win her second U.S. Open Championship.

Of the remaining LPGA players, she would be the one I will be watching.  I was hoping Nelly would somehow pull off a miracle and make it into the weekend, but that 10 on par 3 on Thursday derailed her any chance of making it to the weekend.

Being  humbled  might  be good for  her  in the  long run

I presume you are referring to Nelly?

Seems like she cannot handle the USGA's set up for some reason.  I am rooting for her to figure it out soon and get her hands around that trophy.

Pretty solid play for Saso. I enjoyed it. Meechai took a beating. That’s a US OPEN right there!

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
