Man talk about a hard shot coming back after that. Holy smokes.Tiger tee's shot on 4 was quite poor.
If he doesn't bogey, it would be a miracle.Man talk about a hard shot coming back after that. Holy smokes.
That's incorrect. There is one person, and that person is me.Not a single person
Indeed. The only people rooting for Leish are people who picked him in Draft Kings or have him on their roster. That said, he always seems to be involved during the majors.That's incorrect. There is one person, and that person is me.

And I say, "Hallelujah."If he doesn't bogey, it would be a miracle.
You're right it does. When they have the cameras on shots from the pine straw it looks much more open.It is, although it always makes the trees look way more dense than they are in reality
Very sloppy across the board today. Irons. Woods. Everything.He’s done. His swing is a mess
He looked way better in the last two tournaments he played in. He looks awful compared to what he looked like a month ago.Can’t believe people actually thought he had a chance to win this thing. He’s back from the abyss but he’s still a long ways away and I doubt he ever approaches what he used to be.
Hype hurts.Phil and Tiger may both miss the weekend.
I'd bet a dozen top-flites that they both make the cut.Phil and Tiger may both miss the weekend.
Double major winner Zach Johnson is milquetoast but he's fun to root for.Zach Johnson...he just keeps turning up in majors. Can't say I've ever been a fan of his (negatively or positively), but to keep hanging with the younger, bigger hitters in today's game is impressive. Of course, it's still very early.
I can’t speak to others - and not to single your post out from the other similar ones - but I don’t like him and it’s got nothing to do with his game. I don’t care how you score, if you’re DJ bombing it that’s cool; if you’re Bubba creating crazy shot shapes that’s cool; if you’re Phil and you can flop a ball into a soup can hats cool too. And so on and so forth. He’s an amazing golfer and I’m not sure many people pin point his game as a reason to not like him as opposed to a reason not to be particularly impressed (which could be a distinction without a difference, ymmv).Hate is a bit strong. I think some of the reason people don't like following him is that he doesn't have any sort of dominant skill. He's a very talented player who is also an exceptional grinder who wears down the course and the competition, but doesn't excite anyone.
Regardless, I like the kid and wish we were watching him.
So you don't like him because his hat is blue?I can’t speak to others - and not to single your post out from the other similar ones - but I don’t like him and it’s got nothing to do with his game.

He’s an amazing golfer and I’m not sure many people pin point his game as a reason to not like him as opposed to a reason not to be particularly impressed (which could be a distinction without a difference, ymmv).
Speaking for myself, it’s hard to put a finger on. He seems prepackaged, like he was built in a PR conference room; he’s bland and milquetoast personality wise; and perhaps my biggest annoyance (which is partly not his own fault, since he gets so much camera coverage on course) are his histrionics after every shot. The ball has barely left the face of the club and he’s already complaining about it, on almost every shot; he needs a 3 minute conversation with his caddie before every shot; he spends half his round pouting if he plays poorly or if he plays well talks about the phenomenal shots he made after it.
It’s hard to explain, just like in life when someone rubs you the wrong way. It doesn’t always reduce to ‘he doesn’t hit it a country mile, so it’s not exciting’. He could hit it like Fred Funk or John Daly and it wouldn’t change either way for me. He’s a damn great golfer and seems like a good kid - the way he cares for his sister and family is really heart touching - and I’ll never root against* him, but I also don’t particularly expect myself to ever root for* him.
I can pretty much agree with it, especially the 2nd paragragh. For lack of a better example He's golf's Taylor Swift.I can’t speak to others - and not to single your post out from the other similar ones - but I don’t like him and it’s got nothing to do with his game.

I have no idea what your point is, but I love blue. I also have no idea why people get so worked up when others say they don’t like him. People love and hate every great golfer - Tiger, Phil, Bubba, Nicklaus, Miller, Faldo - for various reasons, a lot of which are just personal taste. Again, much like the guy in your group of friends that everyone loves but rubs you he wrong way and you don’t really care if he hangs out or not, even though he didn’t do anything to you personally. Weren’t you just complaining about Horschels pants or was that someone else?So you don't like him because his hat is blue?
I own blue hats. Love those too.You love blue but you hate blue hats then?
If you win a tournament and thank Jesus, you're dead to me. Who does he think he is, a football player? Plus, I hate his noseZach Johnson. Now there’s a guy that can go screw!
Yes, I said Speith can go screw. That’s exactly what I meant when I said ‘I’ll never root against him’.Zach Johnson. Now there’s a guy that can go screw!
He’s got a stupid putter too.If you win a tournament and thank Jesus, you're dead to me. Who does he think he is, a football player? Plus, I hate his nose
