WhoopsFowler left the door open on the front 9 but JT and Kuch couldn’t do anything either. Hard to see him blowing this now.

Wow, I thought he made that bunker shot.Grace rickying the 17th.
Neither does Ricky. Bad drive on 18Grace doesn't want to win this.
Just take a wedge, get it out and accept bogey. (Or 4 from the fairway.)He should be OK but I don’t know why you would take that aggressive a line.
He made a ton of enormous putts today, even on the 11th. Good for him to grind this out.Great recovery for Ricky. Character building.
He made some gutsy putts.
Neat putter, must be from the peak Cameron era if it’s light too. You can just barely see the lead tape DJ put on the sole in one of the photos.Pretty awesome story about Gretzky's "Gordie Howe" putter:

They make it so hard to ignore the amateursCold, windy, good leaderboard and Pebble. Ignore the amateurs and we’ve got a good day.
6 hour pro-am rounds?Why doesn't Tiger play this course? He won an Open here. What a bum.
I'm just bitching. I knew picking him 1st was stupid, but I wanted to root for him. But only one start so far this year and tempering my happiness.6 hour pro-am rounds?
Something is up with his swing/back... he's hitting 3/4 punches on everything now.Casey melting down with the lead on Sunday? That was unexpected...
It's worth mentioning that every other group finished. Now, I'm not sure who caused them to be out of position, but if Phil is three up on 18 when the horn sounds, they finish.Yeah they both actually handled it well in the interviews. Both were right from their perspective and Phil admitted Casey made the right call from Casey’s POV.
I’m not sure they were out of position. I believe the group ahead of Phil finished after the horn blew. 17 is a par 3. My guess is while Phil’s group was finishing on 16 and deciding what to do, the group ahead of them was finishing on 17 and they ran someone to 18 to put a ball in play before the horn blew giving them the opportunity to finish.It's worth mentioning that every other group finished. Now, I'm not sure who caused them to be out of position, but if Phil is three up on 18 when the horn sounds, they finish.
Given the unique nature of this tournament, it's entirely possible that the amateur partners were the reason for the slow play. I'm still surprised that no one pointed out how far behind they were.
You're right that it won't...but any similarities between AT&T Pebble in February and USGA Pebble in June are purely geographical. (Just to give one obvious example: the drive Phil hit at #10 yesterday would have bounced maybe twice and disappeared over the cliff under normal conditions in a California summer, let alone US Open conditions.)This certainly won't reduce any hype for him going after the US Open title.
