I missed Sectionals by 2 strokes this year.  I summarized my round here, if you or anyone is interested. June 4th is the day for Sectional Qualifying this year.  I'm not sure how many of the 500

This is kind of neat...each of the top 9 finishers had a final score (over par) that was equivalent to their finishing position:

He seems eager to give back that shot and then some on 12.

He may have changed his mind?  Putt coming up.

3-3-4 for three holes, so now 54 and 59 watch are out in the window in favor of 60 watch.

I agree, could not get close to players at practice range. Half of it was like watching home plate from the seats in front of third base. Some tee boxes, no access. The course is not great logistically speaking. Stretching out the holes, they cross each other which makes for weird routing. Don't even get me started on transportation.

 

Did they show Justin Thomas' 420 yard drive yesterday? That's worth replaying.

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

I guess he'll just have to hit a 420 yard drive again today. 

Third GIR out of 4 for Tiger.

Okay Tiger, don't three putt that tap-in... good.  Nice par. 

Huh, everyone in this group has a birdie, even though I was informed that only #5 was a birdie hole.  ;-) 

Keep it going group.  Would be nice if Tiger could complete the no-5s (or worse) challenge today.

I'm surprised Tiger doesn't just take an AK grip on his driver and use that instead of a 3-wood off the tee.  It's clear he could use the forgiveness that the driver has on some of these shots. (re: 14th hole tee shot)

Tiger breaking out the blue paint for his third shot, I wish I had poor shots that good, I'd be a lot better. 

There goes the no-5s challenge :-(

You know, most people here are golf fans. I honestly don't think there are that many fanboys or fangirls of any player. I just don't see it. But, feel free to keep digging. You don't even know how the media works. Players are interviewed. They say stuff. You're the one making up stories.

You're kidding aren't you???? This place is Tiger's main fan club, there's even pictures of him in the executive washroom..

 

But to be honest I can't recall him pulling a John Daly and walking off the course during or after a lousy round. Even if he shoots 80 today he'll man up and admit that he just didn't play good.

Live from the doghouse.

Nice bunker shot Tiger.  Save that par.

Some rain might make it easier to hold greens and go for flags.

Watching the live stream and it looks like they're playing in Ireland.  Also, what's with the inability to keep the cameras clean - must be a rookie crew.

USOpen.com commentators just said "broadcasting in 4K". The stream looks pretty sharp, but not sure if 4K refers to Directtv or stream.
