Woah, super chunk by Rose.

Reminded me of me. Very impressed by young Fitzpatrick. If he puts on a few pounds of muscle and adds 20 yards to his drives, he might be a bit special. aargh! While I'm typing this he's touched the ball at address and got a penalty.

The more I practise, the luckier I hope to get.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Awesome shot by Fitz on 9 though, would have been sweet to see a HiO

Doh, then misses the putt.

Tremendous morning leader board! Don't think a 1st timer wins it this week.

I'm really rooting for Rory, Henley, Dubuisson, Matsuyama, and Na. I would do a chicken dance if Matsuyama wins!

Don't tell Brendon Todd that. Guy's boring as hell to watch, but been playing very well since the Byron. Seems like a US Open style player.

I'm not sure if wearing a hat with a Logo might jeopardize their amateur status. Anyone?

No hat but does have the PING staff bag with his name on it ;-)

Damn you beat me to it

Not to sound like a stick in the mud, but these majors need Tiger to give them that special feel.

Not a stick in the mud. I completely agree.

I will still watch and follow but it just doesn't have the same allure.  I bet the TV ratings will show that mightly....  I haven't heard anyone talking about the US Open this year.

    • What brand is it? Are there actually items you can't buy online? If you want the Chinese stuff. I'd look closer to home first, even if they are also made in China. Some of the Temu stuff is stupid cheap and I'm not buying it.
    • For anyone in Europe, it seems they still got grips in stock here:  Puregrips   I may just order some myself. Having used only the Pure Pros I'm tempted to order DTX.
    • Day 323: another light day. Just putted on my mat for a bit. Working on start line and a good stroke. 
    • Day 143 - Made some swings working on shallow hands in the backswing, a good weight shift, and more hip turn in the downswing. 
    • Day 46: Really struggled today, maybe some fatigue from a long weekend with lots of yard work, family time, and two early rounds of golf. I just could not find the ball at all with full swings. Slow, fast, super slow, medium speed, it didn't matter. I was hitting all sorts of terrible shots; chunks, shanks, tops, pulls, pushes, basically every miss was a possibility. Stopped after about 20 balls and hit the mental reset and changed course to "still head" fundamental practice while making easy swings. Hit the ball well doing this. Stuck with it for about 15 balls, and then did a little pitching and chipping practice.
