Does Spieth seem to be playing faster?

Maybe Spieth WAS on the clock on 12 and it got in his head.

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?

      A 5400 yd course is not that short for gents driving it 160 yards considering the approach shot lengths they are going to be faced with on Par 4s.  Also, for the course you are referring to I estimate the Par 4s have to average longer than 260 yds, because the Par 5s are 800 yds or so, and if there are four Par 3s averaging 130 the total is 1320 yds.  This leaves 4080 yds remaining for 12 Par 4s.  That is an average of 340 per hole. Anyway, if there are super seniors driving it only 160ish and breaking 80 consistently, they must be elite/exceptional in other aspects of their games.  I play a lot of golf with 65-75 yr old seniors on a 5400 yd course.  They all drive it 180-200 or so, but many are slicers and poor iron players.  None can break 80. I am 66 and drive it 200 yds.  My average score is 76.  On that course my average approach shot on Par 4s is 125 yds.  The ten Par 4s average 313 yds.  By that comparison the 160 yd driver of the ball would have 165 left when attempting GIR on those holes.

      Womens League .Golf Top Level Domain Name

      By iacas ·

      I don't think you can snag lpga.golf without the actual LPGA having a reasonable claim to it. You can find a ton of articles of things like this, but basically: 5 Domain Name Battles of the Early Web At the dawn of the world wide web, early adopters were scooping up domain names like crazy. Which led to quite a few battles over everything from MTV.com You could buy it, though, and hope the LPGA will give you a thousand bucks for it, or tickets to an event, or something like that. It'd certainly be cheaper than suing you to get it back, even though they'd likely win. As for whether women and golfers can learn that ".golf" is a valid domain, I think that's up to you knowing your audience. My daughter has natalie.golf and I have erik.golf.
