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?

    • Day 329 - More full swings, focusing on the finish. Started with half swings, finished with full swings.
    • Day 146: mirror work again. Working on the same backswing stuff. 
    • Didn’t get back to a decent routine in November and December as planned.  I really need to get up earlier and get to the 7 am CrossFit class… but I’m too tired. Right now getting in 3 times a week. Going to get some swing speed exercises in too.  January-April should be Monday - Friday, load up on supplements too.
    • “The stuff legends are made of…” 😁 As long as OEM’s keep replacing them…. But if it cracks 2 years in, you’re screwed on the warranty. the Cobra Dark Speed driver gets rave reviews.  Haven’t heard of breakage issues.  Taylormade now came out with the Qi35 heads.  Absolutely stunning but it’s a carbon fiber sole as well as the face and crown.  I guess we’ll see.
    • Day 71 - 2024-12-10 I spent three minutes trying to figure out when someone started calling me Yoda, even though he remains the only person to call me Yoda… then in a hotel room, I spent ten minutes while watching the 2019 Masters on YouTube (the TV doesn't have Golf Channel) working on my wrist conditions.
