All the buttheads that said they can't stand the tournament and won't watch anymore are probably still watching.. Chambers Bay provided a change.. and true entertainment which is exactly what Golf is for the viewer.

Eh, the drama was there (and it was fantastic) but the combination of Fox's coverage and the outrageous bounces and rolls the course gave made it pretty frustrating to watch at times. But I certainly wouldn't go as far to say I won't me watching anymore; that's just silly.

Trying to find an excuse for DJ. They go to a playoff tomorrow and Spieth probably wins it with clutchness anyway?????????

Well possiblly, unfortunately we weren't able to find out because YOU MISSED A ****ING 4 FOOT PUTT AND 3 PUTTED FROM 10 FEET YOU ****ING LOSER DUSTIN JOHNSON. Sorry bout that.

Nice top 10 leaderboard.

I scoffed here earlier in week when pundits promised a good leaderboard because they said Chambers Bay will whittle out anyone not at the top of their game- and that only big names will remain in top 10.

I humbly admit I'll never doubt golf pundits again.

Oops: left off Cameron Smith T4

I would bet no.


Yeah, but I'm betting no one has won it with a first round of 77 either.

I've played golf in Myrtle several times with a guy who is close friends with Neal Lancaster and was one of his original sponsors.  Lancaster's two 29s in the US Open has to be one of the oddest stats in golf.

Oosthuizen beat Spieth by 8 strokes over the final 3 days. Beat DJ by 12.

Problem is it's a 4 day tourney.

Dustin doesn't appear at awards ceremony; has left the grounds, no interviews.

Poor dude.

199 is a record last 54 holes...and No one has ever shot that low the last three days at all ever... So the answer is no... Loren Roberts I think holds the lowest final 54 not to win with 203 in 1994... 29 ties Vijay Singh's second Nine in the second round in 2003... I wanna say it's the first six under 29 in U.S. Open history... [quote name="HawkNballs" url="/t/81357/2015-u-s-open-at-chambers-bay-discussion-thread/1800#post_1158878"]Is 29 a record 9?[/quote]

I hope Rory crushes Spieth at St. Andrews. That kid really believes he will win all four majors this year. He is not even joking. He really believes it. Crazy.

And his first two rounds were with Fowler and Woods.

Again, Neal Lancaster shot 29 twice.  In back-to-back years.  Although I don't know about the -6, I doubt Lancaster did it both times on a Par 34.

    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
