That leaderboard is madness!!

Also,

LUUUKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEEEE

[Zwick]

Donald will win by 3 playing like this.

Watney with an 11 on the par 5 second!? How did that happen? (Shot Tracker looks kinda weird...)

[deasy55]

Watney got a 2 shot penalty on the 2nd for taking a swipe at the ground in the hazard while his ball was in it (testing the surface)

He's now +10 for the day. Fowler not doing much better.

Hard to know who will take this now.

Rickie Fowler sucks. Seriously, could the guy be near more leads and yet continue to blow up in the final round any more often than he seems to do?

Rickie sucks, until he doesn't anymore, but I'm not certain that day is coming any time soon.

No comment from Johnny Miller et al when Jason Day stuck his iron in the fairway?

+1 but at least he didn't wear all orange today

[deasy55]

+2. You can only use the "he's young" excuse for so long. Time for him to man up and actually do something that proves he's worth all the hype.

Chez Reavie mini meltdown happening here

[Zeph]

He played excellent golf until the last approach shot. 30 holes without a bogey, then bogies one of the easiest holes on the course.

Clutch putting by Simpson. The wife will be dropping the baby next

[Chilli Dipper]

The remnants of Tropical Storm Lee passed over my hometown this afternoon, and the local NBC affiliate bumped the entirety of the final round telecast in favor of four hours of weather alerts. I'll have to watch the recap on the Golf Channel tonight to find out how the final round went down.

Some people take longer to develop than others. That's all I can say.

Lebron James isn't finishing 4 quarters but is still considered possibly the top player in his sport. Rickie Fowler continues to choke in the final round but "sucks"? C'mon guys, you guys have surely seen his talent. He's taking longer to get there than most with his talent, but I would say he is far from being qualified for that word.

Okay, you convinced me.

Lebron James sucks too. :-)

[funkyfred72]

He has been at the top or near the top many times and hasn't gotten it done.  You're right, he doesn't suck.  After all he has gotten to the top of the leaderboards before.  But until he gets the job done, he will be known as a choke artist.  And you can't use experience as an excuse.  6 PGA Tour rookies have won this year.

I did not use experience as an excuse. I said that he's taking longer to develop than others. Especially his mental game. There's no doubt in my mind he deserves the title "choke artist". But with the amount of talent he has, you have to expect he'll acquire the mental game soon.

[funkyfred72]

I know you didn't use experience as an excuse.  I added the last two sentances.  Sorry, I should have clarified that.

LOL!

Agreed on Simpson's putting. He was pretty hot down the stretch and into extra holes.

[shades9323]

Webb should win more often because his wife is HAWT!!
