I'm using the terms of the person I was responding to. They said Spieth will playing "boring" golf.
The Open Championship- Carnoustie

Fair enough for today, but I feel like there is a perception that Spieth is a boring player but to me the guy has been involved in some of the more dramatic moments since he’s turned pro.
So, who are the 7 golfers that stayed in the "party house" this year that they keep talking about? Spieth, Fowler, JT, Kisner for sure. Kuchar? Who else?
Edit: Oh yeah, Dufner was another one. That's 5.

Still going to need Spieth and Xander to falter a bit. Going to have to have vintage Tiger to emerge today to steal a shot or 2 from the field.
Can someone explain the “Hogan’s Alley” lore? From the way I understand it, he hit his drive on 6 in the fairway all 4 rounds... is there more??
There are two houses next to each other. They brought the chef from the Floridian to cook for them
The key for Tiger right now is there aren’t 6-8 guys in those 3 strokes he’s back. Granted a bunch are lurking, but there is a huge difference between 3 back in 3rd place and 3 back in 7th place. He won’t need as much help if he can get to 9 or 10.
I read a Tweet that said something along the lines of "Rickie Fowler translated into Spanish is Sergio Garcia."
He hit it in the small alley of fairway between the rough and the bunkers, something like a 25 yard wide slot.
Not really, supposedly, he started his tee shot out over the out of bounds markers and let the wind bring it back into the fairway. Only British Open that Hogan ever played, and he won, which is some of the reason it's remembered so vividly.
Dustin Johnson and Jimmy Walker, too. I don't think Kuchar was there. Not sure about Dufner.
Leaders still have to play 6, and neither of them have the length to get over those bunkers, so they both need to get a bit lucky, and neither will be anywhere near where Tiger was after their 2nd shots. That's a HUGE birdie today.
Yeah, you could see from the tracer on Tigers second that he totally smoked it... amazing shot
If they are going split screen, leave the golf as the larger screen and play the commercial audio. If you’re giving us the choice to watch either side, whey are they assuming we’re watching the ad?
Really, we're getting the split screen while the leaders hit one of the most important tee shots on the course?
