Does Spieth seem to be playing faster?

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

No, I just think the camera's on his group less so we're not seeing as much of the double reads etc.

Does DJ just not read greens well?  Stroke looks great but the ball just misses by so much so often. 

I wonder how well his putter fits him when I see misses like that, actually. 

Jordan makes his first par since hole 4.

I have exactly the same feeling about Rory - can't see how two guys who regularly miss putts that most others make both have blade putters with the thinnest grips imaginable. You've got to imagine that it contributes to their issues.

I went to eat, and Spieth was leading by five. What the hell happened?!?!

Although I was really hoping that Danny Willett would be the leader in the clubhouse, in the hopes that Nantz' call would include the line, "Willett be enough?"

I feel bad for JS..  Oh well.

He'll have other chances. Could be a good learning experience on life not ending with one slip. Doesn't change the fact that he put himself in contention.

What I don't understand about that hole is why was the 3rd shot so far back from the hazard instead of right up against the margin so you could take the water out of play with a really lofted shot?

Jordan started the second nine 5-5-7 (bogey bogey quad).  It hurt.

Rae's Creek has become selective in utilizing its unique gravitational abilities. It picked Spieth on 12.

I'm thinking he wanted a fuller swing to avoid another chunked chip like on 18 yesterday.

Isn't it that they have a specific drop zone?

    • If you don't think this course is difficult enough you should just stop watching golf. Hovland is out, Scheffler just made the cut, Tiger has a lot of grinding to do to avoid an early weekend. I'm rooting for Ludvig or Rory. Cantlay can find a bush.
    • If you got space for it, a hitting net is also a good option that allows you to hit real balls. I do most of my full swing practice on a net st home these days. I find it very valuable to hit balls. I can do something different in ten rehersal swings and on the next full swing just do my normal swing. Muscle memory and having done something thousands of time is difficult to overcome. A combination of slow swings, testing new feelings and full swings is better than only swinging without a club. The better players and instructors can probably get more value out of swinging without hitting anything.
    • Detry making some good length putts today. Defying probability with a pretty good round. +4.3 strokes gained putting. Not sure this is sustainable.  Nicolas Echavarria, leading the field with +3.72 AVG strokes gained approach. He is -2.51 strokes gained putting.  Right now, I would put money on Aberg, Top 10 strokes gained putting, top 5 strokes gained approach and leading in strokes gained off the tee.  Rory's putter needs to heat up. Another all-around good play is Tony Finau, +1 to +2 strokes gained in putting, approach, around the green and off the tee.  Live Tournament Stats - U.S. Open Live strokes gained and traditional statistics from every round of this week’s PGA Tour event in a customizable table.    
    • Day 589, June 14, 2024 Played at Kahkwa Club today. I hit some really good shots, and some really bad ones, particularly warming up. I wasn't really in it but should have been. Dumb.
