Officially rooting against Clark now after his bitching about darkness.

His arse wasn’t bitching with that club twirl that would’ve made 2000 Tiger envious was he.

Team Rickie for me today.

He didn’t tee off till 3:40, which is ridiculous, and caused them to finish in the dark. It was a valid complaint and now you’re rooting against him because of it…..you sound smart

They finished before sunset, which is plenty of light

Sunset was at 8:03 yesterday in LA, tee off was 3:40. You gotta figure at least a 4 1/2 hour round, so they planned to finish past sunset. Not good planning on whoever sets tee times. A US Open round shouldn't finish in darkness. Don't blame players for bitching. I like Fowler and Clark, so either would be fine for me.

Hope there isn't a playoff this afternoon. Although they tee off slightly earlier, if it goes more than the two holes, they will be fricked.

He’s got a valid point. They scheduled tee times that late….there wasn’t a delay that caused it so it’s dumb as hell

No, it's a two hole aggregate score playoff now.

Never mind, I didn’t realize that rule changed several years ago.

August 2014-present




Hmm, interesting

I want Rickie to do it so bad. But man he has been so volatile this tournament with birdie/bogey. I hope it doesn’t fall apart

Changed in 2018 to a 2 hole aggregate so that the champion would be crowned on Sunday. They forgot to allow for enough daylight if it goes to one this year.

How the hell was Rory's ball embedded and why after he dropped it the first time, did he pick it up and redrop? If they say that was embedded, then every ball in the deep rough was embedded. Some bullshite going on with that ruling. He's the only player that would have received that.

Jesus Christ people. The ball flew into the bank. Not hard to imagine that it creased the surface. Same thing happened multiple times at the PGA.
