One of my friends had VIP tickets today and already left because of the rain, I told her I was very disappointed that she wasn't there to contribute to the boos.

Loved that the first-tee announcer didn’t quiet the crowd either. That was some sweet prolonged booing.

Just got home from brunch, it's 80F and sunny and hot af in DC, love to see these guys in miserable rain

Is it because of the rain or because of NY that the post-shot yells are obnoxious this weekend?

Played a scramble this morning half in miserable rain like this then in 65* and sunny. It looks like absolute hell at Oak Hill. I feel like I'd shoot 130 out there.

They had a segment on the broadcast of players estimating what a 18 handicap player would shoot at this course with the current setup and all the players they showcased were saying like 120-150. I understand the sentiment but if you tell a bogey golfer to hit nothing but mid irons and wedges I feel like they'd be able to average a double bogey or better on every hole.

If Rangers and Islanders fans have taught me anything its that New Yorkers love to boo and jeer and when they are miserable that grows exponentially. Probably helps that there are a couple LIV guys hanging around to focus that ire on.

A bogey golfer would require approximately two extra strokes per hole at this course? I find that difficult to believe. I guess if the weather was garbage like it has been.....maybe? Also....this has been a very entertaining PGA Championship so far. A crowded field of actual contenders and some fun side stories. And a look at the weather for tomorrow suggests that it's going to be 70 degrees and sunny for the final round tomorrow. I doubt it will be enough time to dry up the course.....but who knows. A badass course like this probably has a top notch drainage system.....so the course might even be dry tomorrow. Get out the industrial fans and give the kids all sponges and buckets.

I love the little ear piece walk-n-talks but what do the players think? Feel like it might be a bit distracting mental game wise.

I’m watching a lot of this round muted — what the heck was the ruling for Conners on 16?

Aggro posted:I’m watching a lot of this round muted — what the heck was the ruling for Conners on 16? He was attempting to hit out of a bunker but actually just rocketed it right into the grass lip of the bunker. So it became an embedded ball situation. He was allowed to drop one club length away from where the ball went in no closer to the hole. Because of the weirdness of the angle of the bunker it took a bit to decide where he could drop it that wasn't closer to the hole.

Aggro posted:I’m watching a lot of this round muted — what the heck was the ruling for Conners on 16? His ball was plugged/embedded in turf which lets him take free relief, within one club length, no closer to the hole. The rules official determined that the only way for him to take that relief without being in the bunker was to the right.

Looked like they couldn’t figure out how to get 1 club closer without just putting it back in the bunker, which would’ve been the funniest outcome.

gvibes posted:Did he straight blade that? That didn't look close to clearing. Not sure since the only angle they had on it was pretty low res but yeah it wasn't even remotely close to clearing. He was confused as hell when he couldn't see it in the air! Conners getting lucky though with Koepka missing a little and Hovland hitting some late game struggles.

He must have caught that very thin considering how he wasn’t even close to clearing the lip. These guys know what their typical launch angles are and what they’re capable of doing in a bunker and he would have dialed back a few clubs if he thought that lip was in play. I’d love to see Hovland make it interesting tomorrow but I think Brooksie hangs on with like a ho-hum 68 and wins it. Suprfli6 fucked around with this message at 00:10 on May 21, 2023 |

I dunno, I bet that same 18 has a round where they haven’t broken 100 in recent memory, and that’s on a 6200 yard muni, not tipped out to a cool 7400 yards in brutal conditions

I'm an okay golfer (high single digit handicap) and I'm almost positive I'd shoot triple digits there. I don't think some of you realize how brutal that rough would be to hit out of.

I hope Block has a good round tomorrow and gets in the top 10. Dudes biggest paycheck from a golf tourney was 75k and anything in the top 10 is gonna be 6 figures. Top 10 also gets him in next years Championship and tie 4 or better gets him into the Masters. He’s playing with Rory today, hope he just keeps his head down and does his thing.

Leaders teeing off now. Cam Smith currently leading the pool. He was the other person I was thinking of picking since he made the playoff with DJ last week and has had more consistent results on LIV this year.

Koepka has mentioned that he might not have gone to LIV if he hadn't been injured. So now LIV is going to have a major winner and legitimacy because of Koepka's knees.

Eh I don't think this changes anything fundamental about LIV. People want to watch Brooks play super tough major courses, not Pumpkin Ridge or whatever with a bunch of Paul Casey's.
