2014 PGA Championship Discussion Thread

Rory now tied for lead and has two reachable par-5s in the next 9 holes. Here's his chance to hit the gas pedal a little bit.

Just listening on my ipad to the PGA App........they were saying that there is definitely a difference how they mow the fairways.... At August they mow them Green to Tee whereas for the PGA, they mowed them Tee to Green. This most definitely will have an effect on play.

That's his job.

Sorry, I don't think that every comment that he makes to his caddie is intended as a complaint about the caddie.

Totally agree.  It's the type of relationship they have.  All caddies have different jobs.  Some read putts, some help with club selection, some are "yes men" and some are just sounding boards.  It works for them.  So what.

We don't have to like the way he talks, because he DOES sound like a whiny little you-know-what a lot of the time, but it's pretty clear that it's not DIRECTED at the caddie.

It would be amazing if Steve Stricker wins the PGA after being named Ryder Cup co-captain. I don't think he could do it, but I am certainly rooting for him.

It would be more amazing him winning the PGA with a torn labrum.

Hopefully he can get it it 9 or 10 under.

Really hope he goes on a tear over the next few years

[ChrisP]

I think scoring a little tough this morning with the rain. Nobody going super low...a few strong rounds out there (like Stricker) but not a lot. If it dries out later, guys this afternoon could have a field day.

Rory and Martin chatting with each other. Bubba chatting with the voices in his head.

Imagine if Rory stays on a tear and we get the Tiger from 2005 and 2006 back? Golf would be the best it ever was. Unfortunately, I don't see Tiger getting that form back.

Looking good for our lad Joost then?

Jeez Rory....and in the rain too

nice putt

[skydog]

I wouldn't mind if Rory wins again but I can't handle him running away with this one. Golf needs a good finish here on Sunday.

[brookter]

McIlroy 3 under for the first nine — and he's not been playing particularly well...

Out in 33!

Dammit.

I'd still call that a good finish. YMMV

Horrible putt and a dumb bogey to close the nive for Bubba after starting with 2 birds.
