Maybe we get a Phil/Rahmbo group tomorrow?


Phil will either be paired with DJ or Jhonattan Vegas.

Rahm will be paired with Spaun again or Lowry.

Golf uses the first in last out rule for weekend tee times.

It's absurd that's a two shot penalty with all the relief they give guys all the time. Either have anal rules or don't

Baghdad JimTiger knows the rules. He's just busy doing his usual LIV pimping.

Probably already been discussed, but what is Lowry complaining(mildly) about?

He takes a hack through longish grass right next to his ball and rips through some thick grass that’s his ball is resting on. The ball moved bc of it.

What’s there to argue?

Trying to argue its not clear that his swing moved the ball

Tough shite, take your practice swing more than a few inches away next time bro

My issue with the penalty is how many other players does that happen to and we don’t have the HD camera in super slow mo looking right at their ball.

Nobody spots that without NBC replaying it. I certainly didn’t live. I’ll give Lowry the benefit of the doubt that he didn’t notice in real time either.

It happened though. He caused the ball to move. Take your penalty and move on.

Really impressed with Gotterup. Won Scottish Open last week and had no plans to play this week (wasn’t eligible). Then had to scramble and get all arrangements made to get here. Lots of hangover was evident in Thursdays round (+1) and comes out today and shoots -6. Tied for 5th. A course he’s never played.

No idea how he ends up but just making the cut is a big deal then to be 5th is a massive achievement.

Did anyone hear Bryson’s interview after the round? He said he played exactly the same both days and shot 13 strokes different. Chalked it up to links golf. That’s a pretty douchey statement. He’s starting to become unlikeable. Front runner mentality.

In the spirit of things, I’m with you. But that perspective held up much stronger 20 years ago, I’d guess. I’d think it’s more fair nowadays. That shite is getting caught a lot, no?


And I agree, Lowry was looking down range as his club came through bc he was just envisioning his line/shot/stepping off to gather his shite.

But here’s the tidbit you want to focus on

The two-time U.S. Open champion didn't even feel he played that much better than on Thursday. The putts just dropped this time.

"There wasn’t much difference," he said. "That’s why links golf is the way links golf is."

Bryson lost 5.5 shots T2G on day 1, and gained 5.5 shots T2G on day 2.

Appears the big difference was in ball striking.

Matthew Fitzpatrick is what mute-comedian Ahren Belisle would look like if he could talk and didn’t have cerebral palsy.
