I may have set my alarm for 4am. I may also have set my alarm for Tiger's tee time. I'm not telling.

The player furthest away from the hole plays first.

Saturday of a major has been pure frustration for Tiger fans the last couple years, we'll see if today is any different. If they hit it close enough to the hole, they may elect to finish

I love Mahan, and other than Tiger/DJ, he's one of the few guys I'd love to see win.  However, everything he did yesterday was outside of the pressure of the final few groupings.  Today will be different for him, I believe.  Drastically different.  I think Stenson and Tiger will finish 1-2, not sure which order.

I know there's a four-hole aggregate playoff in the event of a tie, but ...

Which holes?  I've searched theopen.com and other places.  I must not be picking the right keywords.  Does anyone know?

Tiger's got to show it and go low. Just don't see it happening today.

Don't know about that, unless 'go low' is post a 69 or 70. Muirfield isn't a course where you have to light it up; you just have to hang on. Faldo won the Open in 1987 with 18 pars in the final round.

Not out of it yet. But he has to do what Poulter did at the turn - string some birds together.

He has to turn it around mentally first.

Nothing a birdie wouldn't cure.

No matter how badly I'm playing, once a birdie or a tough putt goes in, everything changes mentally.

As soon as he starts missing short putts right like he did last hole, it's over for him.

You may be right. But lots of golf left.

...and just like that, a Woods birdie & Westwood bogey & he's only two back.

LOTS of golf left.

ESPN ran it on the bottom of the screen:  1, 16, 17, 18

      My Swing (GolfLug)

      By GolfLug ·

      Slight adjustment. Turning a bit more over the ball. Not gonna lie, while still trail elbow getting too far behind me, I'm a happy camper at the moment. That's about as good as I can hit a golf ball.

      2024 U.S. Open at Pinehurst

      By GolfLug ·

      And if he wins (gasp) the British Open, the hat will be an homage to Mr. Morris. Equal opportunity opportunist. Heh.

      2024 U.S. Open at Pinehurst

      By iacas ·

      Still not happy with Bryson's lies. For example, just yesterday: The hat was because of Payne. Years ago he was on record as saying it's because of Ben Hogan. The wall at SMU for Payne Stewart that he says made him decide to go there… didn't exist until after he'd begun taking classes at SMU. Both lies feel awfully "convenient" because he won at Pinehurst.

      Launch Angle With Driver

      By saevel25 ·

      Launch angle is a mix of dynamic loft and angle of attack. Dynamic loft including the loft of the driver and how it is influence at impact by your swing and by the golf shaft.  Odds are you have a negative attack angle. Yes, hitting it low on the club face can decrease launch angle to. Unless you can get the full set of stats, hard to tell what is going on.  Depends on the width of your stance. Rory has a super wide stance, so his all position is inside his lead heel, but it is forward in his stance.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      Day 592, June 17, 2024 Played 18 holes pausing near the top of the backswing (may not have actually looked like a pause if you were watching me). Hit a 6I about 195 (flew the entire green) and a few other shots long, but… overall, pretty happy. Occasionally was lazy with the arms.
