Wacko Zacko will have five feet for the outright lead (assuming no one gets to 14-under first). And he does it.

Still not catching on.

No.

I think the one prediction I made that will hold up is that about 8 or 9 years ago I said Sergio would never win a major. I got nervous back in 2008 or whatever, but… that was about it.

You're probably right. Not a big Sergio fan, but on the other hand I would like him to win.

Great final day so far!

You'd think there's a $100 bill hidden somewhere in that gorse bush. Paddy's the first to break.

I like how both the BBC and ESPN play the slow motion swings w/minimal pomp and circumstance. No Acme Smith Johnson Whiff-O-Matic perceptor.

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

Anyone but Zach Johnson please.

This was exactly what I was going to post. Please not Johnson, please not Johnson, please not Johnson.

This is just a circus.

I like Adam Scott and all but I won't be happy if he and his soon to be illegal putter stand in the way of history.

Zach's not going to have a wedge in his hand again until 18. He's going to be hanging on for dear life these last eight holes.

Anybody know how Jason Day is doing? Why aren't they showing his shots?

He's still -13.

Spieth is still the man to beat IMO, he finds ways to win when it is within his reach.

He's making lots of pars. Nothing attention-grabbing, but he's just birdied two in a row. Knee-knocker for Zacko to stay in the lead.

    • At address, I started to lean the shaft of my irons forward.  This immediately resulted in better compression and more distance (add some 10-15 yards on each iron). Feels great, feels like I'm make better contact.  But I'm also pulling it, it's going dead left.  When I examined my club face at address, with the shaft leaned forward, I can see that it's closed, so it makes sense that I'm pulling it.   So it seems that leaning the shaft forward at address inadvertently closes the face.  Is this true?  If so, and if you insist on leaning the shaft forward like this, can/should you just correct by also opening the face a little at address?

This seems like a move by him to secure the Ryder Cup spot, and hedge if LIV dies.   
    • Some dtl and fo normal and slowmo shots from today with a whiffle ball in the back yard. Trying not to overbend right elbow and it seems to have my arm lifting more too. 
    • Yeah.. for golfers like this Hick's law is real and a b**ch. Induces paralysis that hits crescendo causing a freeze every time they 'gather up' to pull the trigger. There's cognitive therapy if it's bad enough. 
    • At some point, the golfer is going to have to retrain their timing. When I exaggerate the right elbow stuff, I find myself at the P4 being like, "Uhhh, when does the downswing start." I am just hanging out at P4 for eternity because my backswing is usually like half a second longer. Half a second in the backswing feels like forever. Your tempo might be like 5:1 not 3:1. A 3:1 tempo is going to be very quick. It might be you need to speed up the backswing.
