Really exciting stuff today - this is what I love to see in majors.  Tough conditions, players trying to hang on.  Some really silly stuff going on on the greens, too - a very entertaining day.  I'm hoping Spieth can hang on.

Looks like a soccer ball haha but not sure.  He played the same ball at the Par 3 contest on Wednesday, but I didn't think he would play it on Thursday and Friday.  Great finishing hole for him tho

Is it just me or does the course not look quite as perfect as we are use to seeing, greens in particular?

Anyone else surprised about how poorly Rickie played this week?

Yes. He was in great form before this week.

Yes.

You don't expect someone of his caliber to be that far back in the pack.  Not making the cut, understandable, but a complete breakdown, it's sick.

I don't think the collective ages of the top 4 add up past 100.

Usually there's an old guy in the top 10, that's Søren Kjeldsen at 40 yo.

Watson used a 5W on his approach to 18.

Ugly for DeChambeau. Ugly and undeserved; he's played brilliantly.

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

What's in the bag: Callaway X2 Hot Driver, Titleist 915F 3 wood, X2 Hot 3 Hybrid, 3, 5-AW Apex Pro irons, 54*, 58* Cleveland RTX, Odyssey Versa 1 Putter

    • Has anyone played the new Maxfli forged irons? For the first time in I don't know how many years, they have come out with new clubs. From what I read, Maxfli was bought by Taylor Made a long time ago which then took all of their ball making technology and patents in order to get into that market. The club business was left to whither and the reorganized company, now a part of Dicks / Golfworks / Maltby, is producing these new clubs. (Their Tour X balls which I play are really good.) Anyway, I tried them both out at Golf Galaxy. There's a player's distance iron (XC-3) and a blade (XC-2) and both feel really, really nice, almost "Mizuno-like" in their soft buttery feel and they're a bargain at $800 for a set. I'm planning to ditch my Titleist's and want to go back to a forged iron. I almost pulled the trigger on the Mizuno Pro-245's last summer, but a damaged tendon sheath in my finger combined with a back injury messed up my golf game so I held off. Now the Pro-245's are no longer available, soon to be replaced by the MX-15. (At twice the price of the Maxfli's...that's what got my attention in the first place.) If anyone has played with the new Maxfli's or just tried them out like I did, let me know what you think.
