Right, that's why he finished runner-up in a playoff the last time this tournament was played here.

Jordan Spieth went to Catholic School and graduated from a prep school and has probably been a wonderkid in golf ever since his talents were recognized as a kid. Richard Sherman is from Compton

Jesus Spieth is on fire right now. Reminds me of what Tiger did on the back nine at Medinah in 2006 on Saturday when he made a charge.

He is really good ... But that's not how you spell his first name. ;). He's not THAT good.

PGA Site says today is 7501.

I guess four par-5s will do that. But where the guys are really killing is those shorter par-4s. Anything under or around 400, these guys are sticking it within a few feet. And all four of the par-5s are reachable.

Yep, roughly the field is playing the par 5's at -1.5, which is about what they're playing the entire course, so the rest of the holes added up are about even par.

If the PGA renamed the 11th as a par 4 (563yds, playing 4.35 stroke average), the field would be just a tad under par today, and USGA-like.

Spieth is so intense. He yells at his balls in a panic because it's only cresting a hill to 10ft instead of getting to 5 feet lol


I use to play in a league with a guy who would whisper at his balls. You could barely hear him asking them to quit itching.

We have an annoying request by CBS to call Dish subscribers, scrolling across the screen in huge capital letters.

"My ball is on top of a rock in the hazard, do I get some sort of relief?"

      So, Newey is out at Red Bull. Where does he go in a year? Is Max still with RBR in 2026? Hmmmm.

      My Favorite Putts

      By Clemsonfan ·

      August 2010 Woodfin Ridge 18th hole Playing in a large tournament with a slew of friends and the last day was two man best ball. The 18th, when it was bent grass, was very fast due to a steep slope on the right side. I had seen many people over the years putt off the green from above the hole. I hit a great drive and 3W to 30’ left of the hole. With everyone watching my partner hit it way too fast and never high enough and his ball rolled all the way to the bottom of the green.  I hit mine much higher and the ball came to rest about 20” above the hole. Then it slowly started trickling towards the hole for a walkoff eagle! Nobody said anything except my partner who was yelling pretty loudly. I looked at the crowd and told them it was okay to clap because it was a great putt, and they gave me a bunch of polite golf claps and brought me a beer!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Clemsonfan ·

      Day 127: 5/2/24 Stack Full Speed spectrum training session 6/24. Training speed was 5 mph higher than previous high, as was e-speed. Still not as high as I have done in previous programs, but just 1 mph lower. Battling through a neck issue, and possible trigger fingers. Happy with results.

      Day 49. Played 9 from tees a bit beyond my comfort zone and was humbled. Hit a couple good shots so will take that at least.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By saevel25 ·

      +12 47, and never lost a ball or had a penalty. Got the snap hooks off the tee for the first 3 holes. So, playing the punch out game. Probably had like 20 putts. Bad short game day. The greens were weirdly firm but slow. I just don’t get spin out of the rough. I had a SW, with good height hit middle half of the green and end up almost off the back of the green. I know what I was doing with the full swing. Bad habits creeping in.
