Spent yesterday at Chambers Bay. What a fantastic course, just stunning to behold and looks like so much fun to play. I will have to play it in a season or two when I'm ready. I have to say that there

Well, it's been ages since I posted here, former writer at TST. I spent the Tuesday practice round and Thursday at Chambers Bay. It is expansive. Beautiful views of the sound and a golf course that lo

If Spieth wins this is he ahead of where Tiger was at his age?

Yes. Tiger didn't have two majors at age 22, and Jordan turns 22 next month. Tiger's first major win was the '97 Masters. He wouldn't win another until he won the [S]2000 U.S. Open by 15.[/S] 1999 PGA. [i]Edit[/i] to get the right second major.

You forgot the 99 PGA.

You are correct; yes I did. I should have said: Tiger's first major win was the '97 Masters. He wouldn't win another until he won the 1999 PGA.

Yes. Spieth didn't go to college as long as Tiger either. [quote name="Shindig" url="/t/81357/2015-u-s-open-at-chambers-bay-discussion-thread/1500#post_1158533"] Yes.

The only good thing I can say about Fox is that I don't recall any of their announcers using the phrase "flair for the game."

The number of putts DJ just didn't make today is crazy. I can't believe he is going to let this one get away. I thought today was his day.

I'm a little curious to know of Chambers Bay had the bluegrass infestation at the time they chose it for the open. Then I might think that the USGA could deserve a little criticism. About the only way to get rid of that weed once it's entrenched is to tear up the greens and start over. Which isn't going to happen on a muni course like CB.

Huh? He won a NC with Texas.

Yeah Spieth went to Texas for 1.5 years. Tiger was at Stanford for 2.

      Greenside Chipping/Pitching vs Long Putts

      By snapfade ·

      I'll poke a dead horse here. I like chipping, always have. However, if its a relatively clean roll I'll putt. I choke down just a bit, in my head I'm taking a little flex out of the shaft seems to stay on line better because I usually need to give it some horsepower to get it rolling good. I had about a 20 yard or so chip in to save par the other night in league night. That was the end of my 4 hole even par stretch. All down hill after that.

      Greenside Chipping/Pitching vs Long Putts

      By bkuehn1952 ·

      This is a relevant topic, beyond the statistical nonsense. Generally, if I can use a putter and the grass is not long or uneven, I believe my results are better with the putter than another club.  Some of the green aprons, when dry, are virtually like a slightly slower green. There are other players who swear they get better results chipping from eerywhere other than the green. I suspect a short game guru has studied this and has a general recommendation.
