    How long will Justin's body hold up with that crazy swing?   McIlroy is breaking down right now.

    ^ Good question. Rory followed Tigers lead by doing a lot of heavy lifting and mass building exercises.  I'm all for it but it doesn't translate to longevity for golfers.  Even before he bulked up, Rory was hitting the balk 350+, so it's not like he gained distance. Look at Bubba.  Dude is not jacked up at all and still hits it with the best of them. DJ too.

    golf is great in that you don't ever have to retire.

    My mother in law who has had similar surgeries and is currently in one of those massive halo things after a surgery a few months ago is on almost the exact same regimen, minus the weed though that's not an option in PA

    Took a half day from work and have a 3:30 tee time.  Love the late Friday afternoon tee time.  80 and sunny out too.  Perfect.

    ^ I played this afternoon as well.  If you're in the Chicagoland area, I played the Highlands of Elgin.  It's out there a ways but it was an awesome links style course. I'd definitely recommend it.

    Nice.  I've never played a links style course...may have to check that out.  I played at Mount Prospect golf club yesterday...it's only about a mile from my house and a very nice course.  They just completed renovated it a couple years ago and it looks great.

    If I had that head of hair, I wouldn't cover it either.

    Couldn't get into the PGA event for some reason this week. Maybe it has something to do with Rory sabbatini being in contention. 

    Have watched a ton of the US Am. So fun to watch Riviera this way and I am all in on this Ghim kid.

    redman though. Eagle-birdie to finish two down. Stones

    Yeah I wasn't very into it this week either...rough field since it was the last week before the playoffs start up.

    Totally forgot about the US amateur.  That Ghim kid is from the suburb right next to where we live.  Just read about how he lost....brutal.

    So who wins the career slam first? Rory or Jordan?
