I can't view live coverage on their website

Is it not live yet or is it because I am trying to view from Canada?

Yeah he is a great prospect also. Golf is in safe hands for the next 20 years at least with the amount of top young players. (Uihlein, Kaymer, McIlroy, Manassero, Johnson, Noh, Ishikawa etc) etc       )++

Sorry, didn't mean it that way.  but asking that question begs me to respond in that way although you read it defensively rather than objectively.

again, not condescending at all just pointing out the issue here.  A little bit off your game and you can shoot 90 in a hurry even if you are a + handicap and playing relatively well.

my apologies for the misunderstanding.

I was hoping K.J Choi would be doing better.

On another note, Michael Campbell did a lot better than I thought he would.

Honestly, I would just like to see an American, any American win. The Euros have been killing it at the majors lately.

Great first shot, Rory!  Now let's forget about the Masters and win this thing.

He did so by playing quality golf.  He did so under some pressure as he was in a playoff for the spot.  How else does one qualify?

This McIlroy, Johnson, Mickelson pairing is going to keep me entertained all evening. Mickelson in the water with his first shot

I think ESPN3 is limited to US only.

There's many different ways a person can qualify for the US Open. Thanks for letting me know that he qualified through one of the 36 hole qualifiers though in a snide manner. Cheers.

They say you can't win a major on Thursday, but can lose it on Thursday.  Phil is trying to lose it on the first hole!

Ever hear the saying "ask a silly question"?  There aren't any ways to qualify for the U.S. Open without playing quality golf.

How was it 'a silly question'? I asked how he qualified (eg 36 hole qualifier or amateur win etc). I was just curious. Jeez........I think it's pretty obvious that all the players playing in the US Open have a quality golf game...don't you think?

I would have thought that you asked a serious question if you had left off the second sentence. With your second sentence and your emoticon you come off as insinuating that he is not good enough to be in the open. 5 seconds on google would have given you the answer you were looking for.

    • Even injured Tiger had a more impressive career than Jack against much stiffer competition. This was confirmed by Jack quite a few times. You want to ignore that, but it’s fact.
    • Day 201 3-5 Wider backswing and higher. Practiced consisted of mostly backswing today. Wrist arching through downswing still a focus on full shots with a pause.  Will probably have a 2nd practice tonight blending wider backswing into more of full swing without pause at the top. 
    • Scooted over to the range today in the rain to see how it goes when I try to hit one. The rehearsals I think look reasonable, but then get worse when I try to hit the ball. I think it’s better than it was but still a ways to go. Including the rehearsals in these two videos. One dtl and one fo. I still don’t understand what I need to do on the way down to stop that fugly shoving outside of the hands. Seems unlikely that will just disappear when I get the backswing position right. I have a feeling that lack of understanding of the next step might be holding me back some.     
    • Of course, injuries suck, but that's no excuse. jack was competitive from 1962-1984 or so. 1979 wasn't very good sure (first winless season) but every other season during that timeline he was in the top 16 in the money list. That is a crazy long time. And notice I didn't even include 1986 because he was "only" 34th in the money list that year and 43rd the year prior.  Like you said yourself Tiger was injured what felt like more often than not post 2009. When he was healthy enough to play a full season he did really well (2012-2013, and 2018-2019).  I like Tiger too but you are seriously downplaying what Nicklaus did. Nicklaus was not normal, he is a crazy outlier just like Tiger.  The funny thing is Jack played a reduced schedule compared to his peers and yet he still played way more than Tiger up to his final win. I got him at 477 excluding amateur starts up to 1986 while Tiger is 364 if we exclude his am starts, 345 up to his last win at the Zozo. Just pointing that out because you said he only played a handful of events in those later years.
