CBS...your coverage sucks. Not only is Gary McCord not funny and Ian Baker-Finch the most boring thing ever, but there's a commercial every friggin' two minutes.

And someone may wanna tell CBS that Kevin Kisner is winning the golf tournament. They only have been showing a couple of his shots.

What horrible thing did I do in a prior life that I'm now having to listen to Micheal Breed as an analyst?  Ugh!

This is a very annoying leaderboard web page. An entire page worth and I get 3.5 names out of it. And that's before I scrolled down to the Mercedes ad which reduced it down to a total of 0 names.

And yet, it was a great, entertaining championship. I wonder how that happened on a goat track like that?!

That's a phenomenal stat about Kisner - before that putt, 32/32 putts made from inside 10 feet! There's some strokes gained...

Not necessarily.

True! It's like Seve and Phil. Both were/are incredible recovery shot artists. But both also got in trouble in the first place. :-)

I love when announcers treat grain on putting greens like it's some sort of magical force. 

"It will run out on the hill after the hole, since the grain changes there."

...or because it's downhill, dummy.

How many caddies of top 20 players would have stopped their pro from hitting that Day shot? any?

Bones would have used his "veto", that's for sure... ;-)

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

Don't use the wifi. Use your phone.

I'm at @NatalieB's Drive, Chip, and Putt Sub-Regional today. She doesn't even "play" until 1:30, and it's over two hours away, so hopefully I'll get to see the back nine. :-)

      My Swing (billchao)

      By DeadMan ·

      What's the case against blasting a driver at the green? I'm guessing it puts the penalty area/fescue too much into play, but if that's just standard rough around the green, there would be a good case for it. If it's not driver, then I agree with your approach. The one thing I would add is to shade your aim towards the bunkers vs. center of the fairway. Hitting out of a bunker is (marginally) better than a penalty drop.

      Yes, if you are gonna layup, then layup. No need to nickle and dime a few extra yards and bring bunker back into play.

      Last (Golf) Thing You Bought?

      By retoid ·

      Took my wedges in to get regripped and saw the local store had some leftover Pure grips, was pretty excited to see those still around. Got those put onto my wedges, I love these grips, they have such a great feel to them. Also picked up a brand new (opened and second hand) Cleveland Huntington Beach putter for a great price! About %50 of retail. It had been purchased by someone else who decided to buy a different putter and was never used. I love the feel of it.

      I’m not sure I’m following you. My current plan is to take the bunkers out of play completely and hit something like a 6i to 130-150 range.
