Golf - Classic or Dud?

yea 66 not bad

66 on a Sunday in an Open (either one) to come from behind, I wonder how many times that's been done. Fewer than 10, I bet.

Especially after the disappointment of the US open, its pretty special.

next yrs us open is @ pinehurst, where phil has 1 of his 2nds (99 to payne stewart)

career grand slam would be p. sick

Lee Westwood just makes me sad.

Breaks me up everytime.. :-(

For the record: a *deep breath* first-time kind of gem from Peter Alliss: *ball hits the fairway and pulls back*..."oh that's bad"...*pulls back* "oh that's horrid"...*pulls back some more*"oh that's 'write-your-letter-to-the-Times' bad".

I didn't want to smash my TV anyway..

I know Tiger usually owns this course but he's two pars away from a 59 right now

oops that isn't accurate - he needs to birdie 18

crazy round. that par on 18 was amazing.

hot take: golf is a lot more exciting when tiger is playing

he is imploding rn tho :(

smh tiger

wow he was -3 when I last checked

YOOOO

matsuyama balling. tiger balling.

matsuyama is -71 over his past 4 tournaments

tiger sucking now

When you give no fucks

John Daly was at +100000 to win the PGA Championship — that means a $10 bet would pay $10,000 😂

And yes, I know he's only through 7 holes. It's still awesome.

wonder how much money he's got on himself :)

Amazing piece, especially as the UK and parts of the US state attack and deny trans and abortion rights.

* not the UK for abortion but certainly The Guardian UK publishes anti-trans rhetoric day and night. I wouldn't be all high and mighty about Saudi's crimes without a hint of reflection as to where that's coming from.

Looks like an exciting finish at the US open

huge fucking DUD, at least croquet has flamingos

that

was a great finish. so happy for Matt Fitzpatrick. Only missing 1 green in reg in the final round is some playing. scheffler and zalatoris were good. rahm was terrible.

i thought wills put on 18 was good as soon as it left the putter. matts shot out of the sand is an all timer

that 60 foot putt that fitzpatrick made earlier on was also pretty spectacular

*48 foot

yea crazy to put himself in that position in the sand on 18…. in his interview after winning he said the shot he had to least confidence in overall was a bunker long iron shot… good on him to pull it off

also hat tip to schlefflers front nine especially the approach to #1 out of the divot, great attitude and execution.

felt like the whole tournament was scotties to lose and he lost it on holes 10-14 on sat/sun. especially Saturday.

i thought wills put on 18 was good as soon as it left the putter.

Couldn't believe when it didn't go in...I didn't watch much, but the last few holes were great.

bye bye brooksy

rumors that xander and (gasp) morikawa are next

lets keep the golf chat to one thread

Agree--maybe a moderator could lock this one.
