This. Especially when some of the guys ahead of him start to stumble. He could be tied for the lead or at least close to it by the end of the day.

Is there a place where you can follow a player hole by hole? I see this on every website for Tiger, like a hole-by-hole blog with live updates, but I can't find it for any other professional.

This happened what, 20 minutes ago, already on Vine. That funny looking putt, guy standing in bunker.

Funniest thing is the viewer's reaction.

With Zach plummeting down the leaderboard, I wonder if he will trash the R&A; after the round.

No, I would like to think he's classier than that.

Tell that to the USGA.

I believe after yesterdays round, Zach was confronted with Phil's comments.  I don't remember exactly what he said, but I thought he distanced himself from Phil somewhat by suggesting it was at least fair or something along those lines.

I think it's pretty hard for these guys to accept shooting around 80. Think about it Zach shot -19 last weekend today he might be close to 80 its probably hard for their egos to score like this.

Yeah it's one thing as an American to make statements about the USGA. It's another to go after the R&A.; At least it feels that way to me.

Expectations happened.  Also, I suspect (and this is pure conjecture) that the Open Championship actually will not be his favorite major throughout his career, despite his heritage.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
