god dam Phil ALWAYS misses those "gimmes"

[pjsnyc]

Ughh, I've been waiting a loooong time for this. What a debacle.

Haven't seen any highlights (working) but I see Weir shot a 64?!?! By looking at his stats his irons must have been deadly. 13/18 greens and 25 putts. All this with a driving avg at 255. It boggles the mind to think how good some rounds are.

I think he may have set a new professional record for the number of hybrids hit in one round.

I agree with 1par, Weir was out of his mind. he only hit 6 of his first 13 fairways, and yet he shoots at 64 at the Black Course, amazing. He did a great job of keeping his composure after that missed gimme for Bogey on 15 to drop to -4. He is in great position for the weekend.

Go AK!!......

Why does Chris Berman keep saying "Oh man, birding the 15th is like making an eagle, right Roger?"...

It's pissing me off because an eagle you get -2 on one hole, a birdie is -1. They are not the same. Stop saying making a birdie is like making an eagle just because it's a difficult hole.

Besides Sergio, yes, I am rooting for Rocco.

3-putting from 4 feet doesnt help!

[wrx_junki]

Looks like we'll see some continued play today. Some slight downpour for the rest of the people still out there and should let up while the new pairings are made!

If an amateur wins, do they get the prize money?

[Elvisliveson]

If an amateur wins, do they get the prize money?

Is this a serious question?

[Chilli Dipper]

They don't get the money. That's what makes them amateurs.

[MI Rob]

Anyone else see the guy (not sure who it was) hit in the deep rough next to the green, swing and the ball went nowhere so he hit it down into the sand and holed it? Haha that was great.
Who was it I cannot remember the name?

[lobsterzilla]

it was Nathan Tyler ... great bunker shot, haha he took like 4 seconds to hit it, fantastic


Johnny Miller just called David Duval "supple" and said he has a better golfing build now that he's fatter HAHAHAHHA



anyone know when round 3 is going to t off ?

holy shit .....


did ya'll see the record for consecutive majors ? Phil is the current leader at 61 straight ... Jack holds the all time lead at 146 straight majors


Phil would have to play every single major through the 2030 British open and would be 60 by that time ..

[iacas]
