jeongeun lee6 just played one of the greatest rounds i've ever seen. admittedly no wind but 61 at a major championship is remarkable. leads the evian by 7 shots with the morning wave finished round 2. conditions perfect so perhaps someone can eat into her lead.

i don't see the upside to joining the saudi-backed league, but then, i'm not raking in the blood money

thats the only upside. and for guys that have fallen out of the top spot contention week to week they can rake it in pretty easily i would think.

they got bryson and reed now too...
― Spottie, Wednesday, 8 June 2022 19:32 (one year ago) link
talor gooch and if he's healthy bryson are the only players who looked likely to win on the PGA tour in the next 12 months who the liv have signed up. maybe Kevin Na or Hudson Swofford in a start of the wraparound season weaker field event. DJ has been crap for the last year with the exception of the Ryder Cup. the liv format looks boring and the fields weak. but hey the money is astronomical. all these turds would have merrily played in apartheid era south Africa for sure.

unreal final rounds from both cams. that up and down on 17 was god tier. cam young could have legit finished birdie-birdie-eagle. hov was out of position all day and rory 2 putted every green
― oscar bravo, Sunday, 17 July 2022 18:08 (one year ago) link
kinda feel rory is trying to lean into the tiger way of winning majors too much, conservative golf let the others make mistakes etc but the fields are deeper and noone is ever gonna have the same debilitating effect that tiger had on other players games. like today it looked like rory did too much missing in the right place vs attacking. then again a couple of putts drop and I'm probably praising him for his control so whatever.enjoyed yesterday's play more until cam smith hit the back 9 Sunday.

kinda weird seeing so many guys go double-digits under par at a major
― mookieproof, Sunday, 17 July 2022 20:46 (one year ago) link
my favourite week of the year, alliss's voice in my head "down magnolia lane each april come the best in the game"
guess one of the 'big 3' scottie/rory/rahm are odds on to win this. sheffler is a low key killer scrambler and legit one of the best iron players from the rough i've ever seen. last year at the masters he one putted half the greens which is amazing. feels boring to predict that one of those 3 will win so i'll go for either finau or cam young.
would also like to see a resurgent jason day in the mix.
anyone except a LIV-er acceptable.

rahm 4 putted the first for double bogey and still shot 65. had it on a string.

the greed of sports orgs shouldnt depress me anymore but this totally does. as someone who spends many hours a week watching golf this really really pisses me off. wouldnt ever watch liv wouldnt ever want to. throws players who supported the pga/dp world under the bus when some of them turned down 100s of millions of dollars and reintegrates a bunch of shitheads happy to take money from people who murder journalists. fuck off moynahan.

Hadn't really caught up with the details of this until I listened to an interview with John Feinstein on the way home this afternoon. Hard not to come away thinking the PGA commissioner is a creep--dragging 9/11 families into it a year ago when it was expedient, getting Rory McIlroy to shill (and turn down lots of money), then a sudden 180.
― clemenza, Wednesday, 7 June 2023 21:23 (ten months ago) link

The mixture of golf and 9/11 throughout Jimmy Dunne's past and present is unbelievable.
