They didn't bother asking Kisner anything about his round in the post round interview, just about Jason Day. Ouch.

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

The line that Dustin just took was stupid! Unless, of course, you can get away with it.  Sheesh!

Looks like it will be a good finish with potentially 10 or more with a chance to win. I'll say E to +1 has a chance.

What is up with Jason?  Great back nine, but the commentators seem to be riding him like a rodeo clown.  Oosthuizen is the one they should be talking up.  Was a member of the disaster group Thursday, and has shot 66 two days in a row now.

And, apparently, Oosthuizen missed five putts inside 10 feet today.  He could have a size-able lead right now.

The cameras were on Jason all day,hoping he would take another collywobble.

Pathetic.

You're aware he literally collapsed yesterday, right?

Jordan should feel great about his position. He hit approaches on 15-18 that would have been the best in any of the last four groups. He knows that he had an off putting day. That's not likely to happen two days in a row. Holly has to be the worst possible post-round interviewer in golf history. Could your questions be any more meaningless?

Yeah, but Phil was showing her some LUV on Thursday.

No wonder he's always got a grin......

I get severe vertigo about twice a year for no reason. (Doctors assume its from multiple concussions) anyway, Jason Days body mannerisms are EXACTLY like mine when I get it, and I have a hard time walking 20 feet. This is crazy. Id imagine playing CB with vertigo as hell on earth.

Judging by the look on her face Phil has a sleeve of noodles in his pocket.

Pretty impressive.....there have been 7 rounds of major championship golf this year and Spieth has held the lead in 6 of them. McIlroy achieved a similar feat in '11 when he lead three Masters rounds and went wire-to-wire at the US Open.

Personally, I'm rooting for Jordan tomorrow, not just because I have money on him (well, that's the main reason), but I want to see him go to The Open with a shot at the Grand Slam. It's like Joe DiMaggio's hitting streak....you know it's probably never going to happen (in this case, the Grand Slam), but yet you still hang on to that glimmer of hope that it just could.

I am now a Jason Day fan.


I had a bout of dizziness recently ... all I wanted to do was clutch a doorknob or table  - can't imagine being out there on a golf course with an imbalance issue.    I'm all in on the JD bandwagon  tomorrow

I've had the concussion wobbles and if it's anything like vertigo then I can't even imagine grabbing a doorknob let alone hitting a golf ball. I hope that he can get that worked out.

You won't agree because you don't like him, but the grand slam was achieved by Tiger IMO. He held all four major titles and won them consecutively. The "within a calendar year" thing is an odd limiter to place on things. It's probably tougher to win them over a 10 month span than it is to win them over a five-month span.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.
