I was glad to see Casey in the mix again. Some reason I have always liked the golfer. Too bad he lost it today.

Same for me. Paul seems like a genuine good bloke.

Yeah he really does. Kinda reminds me of Kuchar always smiling and polite

I wonder if there has been an all-lefty final pairing at a PGA Tour event before Bubba and Langley here now.

What was the deal with Bubba's FW putt on 18?  I was on the phone and noticed they kept repeating the putt.  It looked like he touched the ball, but it only oscillated a tiny bit.

The club did touch the ball, but as there was no movement, there was no penalty. Jack said he had probably done the same thing 10,000 times in his career and only been penalized "once or twice ."

Don't want to take over this thread but just wanted to point out that Henrik Stenson and Victor Dubuisson are battling it out for the Nordea Masters on the golf channel right now. Victor one hole ahead of Stenson and up by one.

Henrik royally screwed up the Par 5 18th hole.

We will now have a 3 person play-off between Thongchai Jaidee, Victor Dubuisson, and Stephen Gallacher.

Thongchai Jaidee wins the Nordea Master with birdie on first play-off hole.

Nice analysis from Peter Kostis!

I was just gonna ask you guys what you thought. I couldn't see much difference in the hip turn between coach and Els though. Maybe I need to see that side by side again.

That little musical bit is cute. Help me Kostis!

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

Pretty big difference IMO. Kostis was also right about kicking in the right knee and not being open enough at impact.

I defer to you. I think Els's black pants made it harder to see.

I agree it was tough to see Els' hip turn with the black pants, but the analysis was good! Exciting action going on today. Matsuyama and Scott are both playing great. Bubba is all over the place.

I love watching Adam and Hideki's swings. Absolutely perfect. Na was in prime position in the 18th fairway, and he fatted it. If he can get up-and-down for his par, it will be interesting to see whether 13-under will hold up against the other contenders.

Self penalties - He said he only "took a penalty" once or twice - or something like that.

Hopefully, with Jack's commentary to reference, people won't make a stink on this one.....

Na is in the clubhouse at 13-under. That means Hideki, Bubba, or Adam will need to shoot under par on the back nine to win it. Somebody must have told Chris Kirk that he could get into AQ position in the Ryder Cup standings with a high finish: he went on a huge three-hole run to get to 11-under and solo fifth.

    • Oh yea, now I remember reading about you on TMZ!
    • Of course there's not a simple or knowable answer here. But the whole Caitlin Clark phenomenon is a nice example IMO. Suddenly there was wall to wall media coverage and national attention and... the women's tournament got similar ratings to the men's and much higher ratings than the men in the final four. With every indication that there will be some portion of the uptick that remains going forward. And there's the whole element that Sue Bird brought up. That basketball needed a pretty enough white superstar guard. One who looks like the "cute little white girls" that describes most of the soccer USWNT that's been able to achieve much higher popularity than any version of women's basketball, which is dominated by black players and none of any race who could be described as little... I do think women's sports are in a good place to start taking off more though. It's really only in the coming 5-10 years that the majority of girls will start to come of age with post Title IX grandmothers (as in their grandmothers were allowed to be serious athletes). I don't follow men's or women's basketball much, but in golf for sure the women's tour has gotten much deeper over the past 20 years and only looks to keep going in that direction. I've heard the same about women's basketball. And the patriarchal attitudes that socialized girls out of sports and everyone out of women's sports fandom aren't gone but have def diminished.

    • I have nothing to add other than I freaking love her swing and I think she's hot as hell and some of my golfing buddies disagree so I fought them
    • I’m not sure I agree. It’s just what the majority find more entertaining. Most people prefer women’s gymnastics over men in the Olympics. How much hype is there with the men’s compared to the women’s? I bet you can rattle off several big names in women’s gymnastics and only a handful of men. Women’s tennis …same thing. And sure enough, their purses are the same. However, WNBA, awful…LPGA, not near as much interest than PGA. Don’t think it’s really that complicated IMO.
