double bogey spieth

xyzzzz__, Monday, 20 July 2015 15:32 (eight years ago) link

The greens aren't looking their best after the rain

inside, skeletons are always inside, that's obvious. (dowd), Monday, 20 July 2015 15:43 (eight years ago) link

Two birdies from spieth to recover.

aussie takeover at the mo.

not cool w/marc leishman winning this tbh

What's up with him?

This Year's Model Victim (Tom D.), Monday, 20 July 2015 16:05 (eight years ago) link

nothing in partic, i just have no thoughts about him where there are a lot of cool stories if other guys win

call all destroyer, Monday, 20 July 2015 16:30 (eight years ago) link

Scott is done for the year.

Leishman hanging on..

xyzzzz__, Monday, 20 July 2015 16:43 (eight years ago) link

Oops

Possibly Fingers (Tom D.), Monday, 20 July 2015 16:44 (eight years ago) link

Had to duck out for a dentist appointment...Double-bogey (four strokes from 100 feet?) and then two birdies--wow. The announcers seem to be indicating there just aren't enough scoring opportunities left for Spieth.

clemenza, Monday, 20 July 2015 16:46 (eight years ago) link

Zach Johnson in pole position tbh

Possibly Fingers (Tom D.), Monday, 20 July 2015 16:47 (eight years ago) link

wow insane shot out of the bunker by leishman, ugh

yeah the front 9 is where most of the birdies are

wisdom be leakin out my louche douche truths (k3vin k.), Monday, 20 July 2015 16:49 (eight years ago) link

Looking like a play-off right now.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 20 July 2015 17:01 (eight years ago) link

Yes--two to four guys.

clemenza, Monday, 20 July 2015 17:04 (eight years ago) link

oh shit spieth

wisdom be leakin out my louche douche truths (k3vin k.), Monday, 20 July 2015 17:08 (eight years ago) link

I felt the same way, but it sounds like he has a good story too--what is the story with his wife they keep referring to?

Way to go Spieth!

clemenza, Monday, 20 July 2015 17:08 (eight years ago) link

She almost died apparently.

Possibly Fingers (Tom D.), Monday, 20 July 2015 17:09 (eight years ago) link

It's a pretty good story tbh.

Possibly Fingers (Tom D.), Monday, 20 July 2015 17:10 (eight years ago) link

Amazing what Spieth is up to.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 20 July 2015 17:15 (eight years ago) link

Not bad, but what a putt to have to stand over.

clemenza, Monday, 20 July 2015 17:24 (eight years ago) link

Baseball analysts would have had a field day with the announcer there: "Statistically, this distance is not Spieth's strength, but he's such a clutch player, you can throw the stats out the window." And so he misses.

clemenza, Monday, 20 July 2015 17:29 (eight years ago) link

Weird--if Spieth sticks his like Day did, and if Day spins his like Spieth did, they're both close.

clemenza, Monday, 20 July 2015 17:39 (eight years ago) link

spieth gave that a good go

wisdom be leakin out my louche douche truths (k3vin k.), Monday, 20 July 2015 17:41 (eight years ago) link

couple of painful shots for spieth in those last few holes

call all destroyer, Monday, 20 July 2015 17:42 (eight years ago) link

Great try--I think Trevino passed Nicklaus much earlier in the round in '72. Contrary to the announcers, I think the pressure did get to him a little bit near the end, on the one putt and on the approach into 18. I'll root for Leishman now, but my interest has dwindled significantly.

clemenza, Monday, 20 July 2015 17:46 (eight years ago) link

Should have put money on Oosthuizen today.

Possibly Fingers (Tom D.), Monday, 20 July 2015 17:52 (eight years ago) link

Most folks I know had money on Oosthuizen. Not sure why - they may well have had money on lots of people.

wouldn't have wagered Zach would even be the highest-finishing Johnson tbqh

johnny crunch, Monday, 20 July 2015 18:33 (eight years ago) link

Doh, Johnson, 2nd shot @ 17

Possibly Fingers (Tom D.), Monday, 20 July 2015 18:33 (eight years ago) link

not the winner i wanted to see but zach is a good guy. actually worked at the last open in st andrews in another, now distant life, interviewed zach johnson and he was v generous with his time for a crappy kids' tv show.

doing my Objectives, handling some intense stuff (LocalGarda), Monday, 20 July 2015 19:10 (eight years ago) link

that's cool to know. i'm catching the end of the playoff now and his interview seems sincere and heartfelt. i totally forgot about him as a competitive golfer between his masters win and now but he beat the best in the game today.

call all destroyer, Tuesday, 21 July 2015 03:24 (eight years ago) link

gutted for louis but okay with zach winning. i like his old man game, punching most of his shots in, low wedges with hella spin, not much length off the tee.

pandemic, Tuesday, 21 July 2015 13:48 (eight years ago) link

two weeks pass...

Some really good golf the last few weekends. Lowry was so fun to watch yesterday with Bubba on his heels. Both guys took turns hitting crazy shots with trees in the way but Lowry hit two of the luckiest amazing shots I've seen to basically win.

huge buzz about him on all the irish sports shows and in the papers etc. i've heard a few kinda dumb "so what makes the irish people love shane lowry so much?" questions and it's like hmmm a large joker who loves his pints and openly says this - what is the secret of shane's appeal in ireland?
