I think the wind is supposed to die down a bit as the day goes on, but still be a factor. I love it.
Na.Does it make me a bad person that I am rooting for Kevin Na to hit every shot into the fescue?
Fox just did a little feature on it--it was originally a "bye hole" that they built because they had the space, but ended up using it when they realized how much of a US Open hole it could be. Pretty interesting.The players probably hate it, but 9 is a fun little hole with this pin placement and the wind blowing.
Had never heard of a "bye hole" until that feature. This story lists a few others.Fox just did a little feature on it--it was originally a "bye hole" that they built because they had the space, but ended up using it when they realized how much of a US Open hole it could be. Pretty interesting.
They can't be surprised people are annoyed by the sound. It's worse than the Vuvulela's from the World Cup 7 years ago.That airplane. Wow.
Ask Phragle. He seems obsessed with his lips.Fleetwood put a bottle of sun screen on his lips here?
Phrasing.Harman's driver head looks enormous
We stopped for a while. But we're doing it again.Are we doing phrasing?
Took 2 holes. But I imagine we'll be seeing very little of Harman the rest of the way.If Harman still has the lead after 5 holes, I'll be shocked!
Was going to say that I think this is quickly becoming Koepka's to lose, but Fowler with a great save for par there.Koepka looks like he's really got it going in these conditions.
If Fowler keeps putting the way he has all week, nobody is going to run away from him. Him and Snedeker (shocking, I know) have been incredible with the flat stick.Was going to say that I think this is quickly becoming Koepka's to lose, but Fowler with a great save for par there.
So far, my hot take was pipin' cold.Took 2 holes. But I imagine we'll be seeing very little of Harman the rest of the way.
They are blowing it today, missing a lot of shots.Yea some of these camera angle choices on the greens are terrible and they go to the ones in the fairways too late.
If we get to the point where there are way way way too many people in the world, one way to start culling the population would be to just eradicate anyone who screams "Get In The Hole," on any tee shot, even the Par 3's.Lol "say hello to your mother to me" after Koepka's tee shot. Haven't heard that one before.
Yeah, very much so. This always happens. On Saturday, there's 25 guys within 4-5 shots. And then after 8 holes on Sunday, there remain 2 or 3.Feels like a 3 man race now- Koepka, Harman and Fowler.
The Masters is owned by the tyrants who run Augusta National, not the PGA or USGA. So they have free reign to eject anyone who does not act with what they feel is appropriate decorum. (Note: unsure why the USGA or PGA does not follow their lead for their tournaments.)What do they do at the Masters to prevent aholes from screaming at every shot and to prevent blimps loudly flying over the course? Fox and the USGA should watch and learn. It's not the horror show the first Fox telecast was, but it still sucks compared to a routine NBC or CBS telecast.
