Gotta commend Westwood today for how he has handled playing terribly and being a great partner with DJ. Good stuff to see.

After all of that talk about how the rain on Thursday would take the bite out of Oakmont, it looks like only three players will finish under par for the championship.

Much shout outs to Jim Furyk who somehow finished in T-2 when everybody else shit themselves :content:

That's how it usually works out for him.

Ok.  Credit where it's due.  I've gotta commend Fox on their camera work following Paulina walking with DJ to the scorer's tent...

Are they assessing the penalty and does it matter for the contest?

I don't think that word means what you think it does.

Unknown and no.  If everyone not in holes out their next stroke, he still wins by multiple shots.

Definitely got, but getting to age where that outfit is borderline

Does the penalty stroke change the result of the Sun Mountain contest? Or is it @phillyk either way?

I don't think so, unless it somehow DQs Dustin.  He's at -5 or -4 (now -4, they said as I'm typing this) and the only entries with him at #1 were over par, -2, and -4.  If he had parred #18, it would maybe be an issue (I don't know the tiebreaker if he won at -3).
