Too bad for Lowry that his win will be overshadowed by Koepka bludgeoning Holmes to death with his putter.

Now “live” for birdie at 7 when I watched Westwood attempt that putt a minute ago

Does anyone else hate the new major championship order? I feel like I'm getting cheated.

I’m with you. I just don’t care about the FexEx “playoffs”. I want another major in August.

I mean I might be ok with the order if they pushed out the British Open to August. Mostly, I'm just irritated that this is the last major championship of the year and it's only July 21st.

Tour officials felt they had to adjust their schedule to avoid going head to head with the NFL in the fall. The TV numbers will indicate whether or not it was a smart move.

I like that the PGA moved up because they can go to a lot more southern courses, though I don’t like that it will regularly be at the new course they’re building in Frisco.

Would the fedex cup be more entertaining if the first rounds were on courses that provided more of a test and played on some of the historically US Open courses?

Why? It has a chance to be an amazing course.

Don’t mind the new order.

What I do feel cheated by is watching a commercial every 5 minutes.

Maybe they'll start promoting it better now that the majors are all over by July. I'm open to caring I just don't at this point.

Yeah not missing much today unfortunately. I'm thinking today won't be a ratings bonanza.

I guess that I'm in the minority. I understand that the networks have to show commercials to generate revenue to offset the production costs. If you want a telecast without commercials it will be pay per view. At least now on most of the commercials they show the play through on the left side of the screen. If you miss an important shot while they are in a break you will see it on tape when they return.
