I think you could out Day in that category as well. His shot routine is not exactly speedy.

I absolutely would. I want to like both guys but their slowness is making it hard for me. My favorite player is Snedeker, not in a small part due to how fast he plays.

I like his demeanor a lot more after that interview.  Took his bad bounce and is moving on.  Would love to see this kid compete over the weekend.

Seems like Bubba and Rickie should take a page out of his book.

Did Phil make the cut?  Why is ESPN not showing him on 18?

Phil +7 teeing off at 18.

Agreed. I decently like Spieth but the amount that he and his caddie belabor every decision has got to stop. 

Yeah, but sometimes we forget he's only 22. DeChambeau is the same age and he's a little whiny out there, too. Rory was at 22 as well. Tiger was spitting, cursing and throwing clubs at 22. I think he'll mature with age. He's already matured a lot just from 21 to 22.

Long birdie putt for Phil.

I just never understood the super slow play. To me that just means more time to overthink the shot. Make up your mind, take a practice swing and rip it. Most players don't have that issue, why do some of them?

Watching him right now?

The coverage is atrocious. Who chooses what to screen and what not to?   Surely a non-golfer.???

I had that guy over to my place a few months ago.  He picked up my bowling ball and asked me what it is.  Clearly he isn't a golfer.

(I don't actually know;  I'm half watching coverage today while doing some work.  Will sit and watch intently tomorrow and of course Sunday)

I hope they put Spieth on the clock after his first tee shot tomorrow. Whiny little brat. 

COME ON RORS!!! I hope he steps on Jordan's neck tomorrow and doesn't let up till Sunday night.

How was Bryson whiny today, apart from your average look to the caddy and toss your hand up that every player does (including all of us)??

Are you a Nike rep or something.

I like Rory too, but come on.  One of only three under par today?

Mcilroy highlights package. McIlroy wears grey better than PM.

Why do all the greens look beat up? I have never noticed imperfection at AN like this year.

Spieth mentioned that in his post round interview...if I remember correctly he said they were "crusty"....not sure exactly what that means, but maybe they weren't rolling as true

Dried out more than usual,less receptive,hence the high scoring.

Yeah I heard that too. Just weird. When they zoom in on lag putts, you can see the greens are all jacked up. I have never noticed anything out of place on that course before.

I love when you get descriptive like this! LOL.

I didn't see this coming from Phil.  I really would have liked to have seen him play this weekend.
