Something going on between Gmac and Paula Creamer? She wished him luck on twitter a while ago. She wished no one else luck

If the 10 shot rule was in effect 100 players would have made the cut. Anyone of the 71 that made the cut can win it. Exciting weekend ahead

The greatest thing about this week is that I haven't heard a single word about Tiger all week. The commentators/TV networks have finally realised there's other golfers too

Oh, and by the way, I have you blocked for a reason.

Because when he reads of your lack of manlove for Tiger, it makes him weep openly.

Considering I'm actually a fan of Tiger and was merely stating that i'm glad we didn't get hours on end of commentators stating that a golfer wasn't there I find that very strange.

Ok. Just find that very strange because you always type something against Tiger. No one in the world would have guessed you were a "fan" of him by reading your posts.

And I do not have you blocked because of your posts about Tiger, I have you blocked because you insulted me for no reason a few weeks ago and I've just had it with internet idiots.

Show me where I have said something which would suggest I wasn't a fan.

OK, so now back to the golf tournament.........some compelling stuff....my thoughts at the 36 hole mark

1.  The names on the leaderboard and the fact that the margin is so tight is as good as we've seen in some time....going to be a great weekend

2.  The R&A; seems to be taking some heat for course set-up, but I think things will change over the weekend....we will see some (more) birdie holes on Saturday with the pins tucked on Sunday

3.  That back right pin placement on 16 on Sunday is going to provide huge drama (again).

4.  Deep down, I am really pulling for Sergio...can't really tell anyone why, just feel like it would be awesome for him to close one out....after that, I would like to see PMick get one so that he has a couple of shots at the Grand Slam before he is done......he will be 45 when he comes to my backyard (Chambers Bay) for the 2015 US Open....

5.  Chad Campbell is kind of flying under the radar atop the leaderboard -- a texas guy with a hard trap-draw swing that knifes through the wind

6.  Did T. Watson really go Ace, Birdie get into red numbers?  Is he ageless, or what?

7.  All that said, would there be a dry eye in all of Great Britian if Darren Clarke went on to win this thing?

Great weekend coming up boyz!!!!!!!!!!!

You just always are so pessimistic and your posts just sound like you're against Tiger. It would be easier to find a post where you would suggest you WERE a fan...I can't find any. And you also said Rory is your favorite.

Not that you can't like several golfers, but I just interpret your posts as non-confident and negative towards Tiger. Maybe not. If you are a real fan, then you're definitely the strangest Tiger fan I've ever seen.

But if I misinterpreted your posts...then that's my fault. Just the way you were coming across, that's all.

Still trying to find the post where you insulted me...got to search through tons of pages of your posts.

Yes back to the golf. I will ignore the idiot above insulting me and justifying it by making stuff up.

Tom Lewis paired with Lefty tomorrow. What a great first major he is having. It would be nice to see him play steady tomorrow. Does anyone have any links to tomorrows forecast at different periods of the day? I want to see will the field bunch up even more with decent weather in the morning and dreadful weather in the afternoon

I am really surprised that Lee Westwood missed the cut. I really thought he would bring his A-game with him this week and contend for the win. He was way off. Also thought McDowell, Harrington, and Donald would make the cut for sure but they all missed it as well.

I'm rooting for Miguel Angel Jimenez. Priceless!

There is another insult. I never insulted you. Why can't you just be polite?

You'll be searching for a while.

And Tiger was my favourite golfer until I started following Rory in a big way in 2005. Tiger is still easily in my top 5. Just because I don't think everything Tiger does is the best thing ever doesn't mean i'm not a fan.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      Day 1: 2/26/2025: So, I'm starting over on this again.  My son brought home the mother of all flu bugs from school. It raged though our house and knocked me on my butt for about 3 days.  Now, that I think I'm clear of the death plague my son gave me. I was able to rise early this morning and get some nice mirror work in. I felt stiff like a board for the first few swings, but loosened up and was able to get at least 20 minutes of first robotic slow swings and then gradually more fluid swings.  My focus was on the timing and fluidity of my priority pieces.

      My Swing (TN94z)

      By TN94z ·

      Working on some swing videos. What are you guys having the best luck with as far as devices used to record the swing?  I have a tripod with a magnet that I stick my phone on but it is somewhat of a pain because I have to remove the cover on my phone and when I pull it off the magnet the tripod head changes and moves position. I was thinking something more like an ipad maybe. On a different style tripod and maybe even set it up to mirror to a tv.
