well all the people who predicted phil were right

I wish Sean had put up more of a fight. He was just a little teeny bit off all day, and the tournament was his for the taking, because Mickelson, despite putting on a very good show driving, wasn't playing lights out either.

The two-putt on 16, the bunker shot at 11, the missed putt at 15, the water balls at 17... Sean should have been leading going to 17 - he shouldn't have needed to fire at the flag. Oh well. Credit to Phil - this win was impressive. I'm not a Phil fan, but I greatly admire the way he played this tournament.

I'm not sure Sean should have had the lead going into 17 but I did feel bad for what happened there. Don't forget Phil missed some very makeable putts on the back nine as well. O'Hair did play very well all week but I just don't think he was quite ready for prime time. Even when the lead was one or two I always had the feeling that Phil was in total control and it seemed like the lead was more than that. I hope O'Hair builds on this, we sure need a young American to step up his game.

      I don't think anyone will really care.   It's your call.  Just be consistent.

      I agree, until we are watching the 18th hole in the dark or waiting for the champion to finish and it's been 5+ hours

      Question for the group. The course I normally play at has 27 holes - 3 9s that they use to for 18 in the various combinations. Is it okay to declare* if I’m playing front or back when I play 9 on this course? I’m figuring I need to declare before I play a shot. *meaning just say to myself that this is the back 9. Curious what people think. Of course, my only holes left are 13 and 17, so I’m going to declare the back 9 for the rest of the year. Probably only one or two more rounds though.

      This is my opinion as well. I would love to see the LPGA take the lead on this.    This.

      I agree in general. The one way in which the viewer will notice the pace of play is just that "it's been an hour and Nelly Korda or Scottie Scheffler have only played four holes." Or if for some reason they show a lot of shots of players just standing around when they could be showing golf shots. But I think Andy Johnson said it most recently/best, playing fast is a skill, too. I would love for pro golfers to play faster. You'd see the players you want to see hit more shots in the same time than they do now. So I don't disagree with the pace of play stuff, and hope they can find ways to do it. Heck, the LPGA should leap at the chance to differentiate itself in this way, IMO. So: I stand by what I said in that the TV viewer really doesn't notice much about pace of play. It's rare when they do. I support increasing the pace of play wholeheartedly. But my top five reasons don't include TV ratings or viewership.
