Bubba looks distracted and Rory and Martin are doing exactly the right thing - blanking him. Perhaps they should tell him that all they "want to do is play golf"

I don't suppose that's going to work though because Bubba doesn't care what people think about him. We know that of course because he told us himself. He looks mentally very fragile at the moment. Why does he keep puting himself in cross-hairs if he can't handle it? I'm not so sure myself that Rory sticking the first tee shot a symbolic 5yds past Bubba wasn't responsible for his hoik on the second into the forest

All I hope is that Rory jabs at him on 10 to pull out his driver.

Rory's chip on the 3rd was sweet.

That would be great. "Hey Bubba, how 'bout a little side action on this one? Longest drive ok for you?"

Yours in earnest, Jason.

The Good News for Tiger is that he is tied with Rich Beem. The bad news is that it isn't 2002 and we ain't at Hazeltine anymore.

I think the bad news here is he's tied with Rich Beem.

Pet Peeve: When two different streams go to commercial at the same time.

My son feels the same way when Sprout and the Baby channel go to commercials.

Baby channels shouldn't even have commercials. :pound:

What site are you streaming? I was streaming earlier but they kept looping Rory's group through the 3rd and 4th holes.

http://www.tsn.ca/live/golf/ - which features just Rory's group

and the TNT stream via Comcast cable.

Is something wrong with the audio on the PGA Live stream?

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

Seems to cut in and out. I just switched to the TSN stream that Crim posted.

Watching the PGA on TNT, I remember Verne Lundquist as the most popular Dallas Sports Anchor in the 70's ... Good guy on the tube and very diplomatic.. I almost did not recognize him a couple of years ago on television... he also hosted Dallas' version of Bowling for Dollars... long time ago.

Well, I had enough of this malfunctioning site. Sky Sports it is.

Well not only is there a 100% chance of thunderstorms tomorrow, the chances grew to 80% of heavy thunderstorms Saturday. Could be a messy, 2nd and 3rd round. Damn and I have to work Monday.

    • I think I like this hole.  It is a clear "Risk-Reward" choice.  Since most of the shots in your cone cleared the bunkers I would say they are a minor risk and not a big issue.  Playing the aggressive line may give you 70ish yards in from what looks to be playable rough while conservative play is 120ish from fairway.  I know you said 70 vs 120 is minor for you but how does the approach angle in impact your results?  I figure both strategies are playing for Birdie since holing out from either is mostly luck. Looking at your proximity hole I think it says @ 50 feet when hitting from the fairway from 100-150 and 40 feet if hitting 50-100 from the rough.  Neither of those is an easy birdie putt.   I like the approach angle from the rough between the bunkers & the adjacent tees over the angle from @ 120 in the fairway but I really do not like the idea of hitting onto the adjacent tee boxes and that may impact my confidence with making the shot.  Also, too far left may be a worse approach angle then from the fairway short of the bunkers. For me this may come down to how confident do I feel when I reach that tee box.  If I am stroking it well off the tee leading up to the hole I would try for over the bunkers and the better angle in but if I am struggling that day I would likely opt for the fairway to take more bad stuff out of play.
