I like the matchplay format for a change, but at the same time, maybe its not worth it. You have too many snoozers too deep into the tournament. This course also is kinda mehhhh.

I'm sorry, but this tournament is Dudsville. Seriously, either John Senden, Danny Willett, Timmy Fleetwood or Gary Woodland is going to be in the final? Going to be some thrilling golf tonight. I can't wait (sarcasm off). Maybe we'll get lucky and we'll at least get a Rory-Rickie semifinal tomorrow morning. If Rory weren't still alive, their ratings would be worse than the I Love Lucy re-runs on TV Land.

Yeah but they've played well and deserve it.

I think MAJ did the right thing in questioning the drop.  He was well within his rights.  What these guys were playing for is World Ranking Points and FedEx Cup points.  This could be important as I think bradley missed the four tournament playoffs last year by just a few points, but I didn't look it up and I don't have total recall.  Bradley and his caddie were the ones who started the melee.

Well I was wrong as usual.  Keegan easily made the tournament.  Something happened last year when he called a penalty on himself and he didn't move on as a result.  For some reason I am just not a Keegan fan.

Absolutely.

We're watching the top 64 players in the world.

Some disrespect being shown to the lesser known players...and it's Tommy Fleetwood not "Timmy".

OOPS!! I forgot again,it's all about ratings and not great golf.

"NBC on suicide watch" hahaha!

All about opinions of course and I respect all the opinions on here.

Someone should tell Keegen Bradley to stop having a game of tiddlywinks before every shot he plays.

"You want to delay us some more'was the key comment.And the caddie turning his back on Jimenez was very disrespectful.

They had a chance to square it away on 18 but it didn't happen. Never happen now.

Rory and Casey just teed off.

So assuming Rory wins today...he will have played close to 36 holes...hop on a jet immediately after his round and watch the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight ringside in Vegas.....take a jet immediately back to San Fran around 1 or 2 in the morning.....then tee off around 7 am tomorrow morning for another 36 holes of golf. Then of course he has to fly cross country tomorrow night to prepare for the Players. Good luck with that.

So what happens if he has to go extra holes tonight? Do they delay the Mayweather fight just for Rory?

From the PGA website regarding the Cadillac purse:

"The purse distribution for the event will be similar to past years, but payments for the players who do not advance beyond pool play will be based on the player’s record within the pool play round."

So there may some money involved in even the dullest of matches.  I have no idea of past years payout.

I have no idea of past years payout.

It worked the same way a stroke play purse would work if 64 players made the cut, and 32 finished T33, and another 16 finished T17, etc.

Just saw the Jiminez and Bradly spat, and read this thread.  I never liked either of these guys and am glad that hey failed to move to the next rounds.

NBC dropped the coverage at 11 and I don't have cable! Two putts to finish out the hole, they can't hold the coverage for two putts!? Maybe I was the only one watching as I'm clearly too cheap to order the fight.

Did they suspend play before the hole was finished?

No, they finished the hole. McIlroy lipped out and Casey lipped in. All square, play suspended till tomorrow.

    • I too, like @GolfLug, remember great wedge, iron shots, or my missed putts, more than my made putts. My most memorable recently, would be: #17 Old Course St. Andrews (last year) I had been putting awful all day (I started 3 putt, 4 putt, 3 putt, 3 putt), but found a putting stroke on the back 9 and was 1 under on the back going into 16 and of course I 3-putted it for a bogey. Got to 17 and my playing partner just hit it into the hotel, so I went a little more left and decided to not try and hit it over the hotel.  And as soon as my ball was in the air, I heard one of the other caddies do the chicken noise.  LOL My shot was a little more left than I wanted, about 185 yards, I hit a 6-iron and it was drawing right at the flag.  The pin was just to the right of he bunker and towards the front of the green. My ball hit short (and just missed going into said bunker) and stopped about 15 feet left of the hole. Had a little left to right break and as soon as I hit it, I knew it was in.  Birdie on the road hole, looked at the caddie and said not bad for a Chicken.  Parred 18 (missed 10 foot birdie putt) for a 35 on the back 9 at the Old Course. #18 Springfield G&CC Last year while playing in our season long match play event, my partner and I get the 18th hole needing to win the match to move on into the knockout round.  We are tied going into 18.  A tie and we lose on overall points by .5.  Our teaching pro is on the other team (very good golfer), so we were pretty sure we needed a birdie to have a chance to win the match, I hit on of the best drives I hit all day and had about 135 yards to the pin, but it was in a place where you didn't really want to be long.  So I hit a PW and it landed just short of the flag but released about 12 feet past the hole, so have a devilish putt coming back down the hill.  Our competitors were away and the pro missed his birdie putt by inches, I thought it was in when he hit it.  So after reading the putt, which probably had a 2 cup left to right break, I made the putt to win the match.   #15 Springfield G&CC A few years back, was playing in the first round of the Club Championship (against the previous years runner-up) and my putter was balky all day.  Got to the 15 hole, 2nd Par 5 on back, and was 3-down with 4 to play.  We both hit good drives, both hit good second shots and we both hit decent 3rd shots.  I was about 15 feet and he was just a hair longer.  He missed his putt, I had another slider putt down the hill, with about a foot of right to left break and made the putt.  I birded the next hole, to go 1 down, but not a memorable putt as I only needed a bogey to beat him on that hole, he had all kinds of issues going on.  Lost on 17, as he birdied it, right after I missed mine to lose 2&1.

    • Ok so as of this point the bug persists. We figured out that I can select the tees (gold or blue) manually and it resets the back 9 scorecard to the Lake course, but as soon as I add #10 manually, it automatically sets the back 9 as Ridge and no amount of playing around with the tees changes it. And it still doesn't save #10 when I sign off. Andy from support said he will speak to the tech team about it, but it seems there isn't anything either of us can do at this point. I've accepted that #10 is simply lost. I now have 17 correct holes and that's going to have to be good enough.
