    that was epic ... shoot 63 in the final pairing with 2 3-putt bogeys ... amazing ... think my heart stopped watching his drive on 18 ... go closer and closer to the bunker ... 310 yds with no tail wind on his 3 wood ...

    Well after my worst round of the year in then sweltering heat Sunday, your Juggler came storming back to tie a personal best 90 this morning. While happy with that outcome, can't help but be a bit perturbed that the elusive 80's still remains just outside of my grasp.

    One of these days...

    "Tonight, I'm going to do exactly the same thing I did the previous night," Jimenez said. "I go with my friends, we go to a nice diner with a nice bottle of Rioja and after that I'm going to have a bit, fat cigar with a nice malt whiskey."

    You have to love Miguel Angel Jimenez.

    I just came to this thread to post the same exact thing. Way too many commercials.

    I was at the PGA championship yesterday for the practice round. Beautiful course. If it rains and and the greens get softer you could see some really good scores. Might try to get a ticket for Saturday, as they say it will rain on Sunday.

    ha, yeah, just turned it on and saw him hitting the 5th shot from a fence. Haven't seen much but doesn't seem like a very exciting tournament so far.

    Going to be driving by Baltusrol tomorrow on our way up to Maine. Tried to get the wife to stop by for a few hours, but she's not interested. Boo

    I was there today following his group. Unbelievable. After he double bogeyed 7 we just assumed it wasn't his day. And then he just went on a tear. 7 out of 8 birdes or something like that? It was like seeing Jordan in his prime drop 50 or something. Dude was in the zone. Was fun watching Phil too....and Rory just forgot how to putt.

    Also---the course....eh. Not terribly impressed. Other than a few holes, there's not a lot of wow factor. Just seems kind of blah to me.

    Nice dude. That's sweet. I wanted to get to their but bad timing. Different game these guys are playing than you or I, huh? Crowds looked pretty deep on that group but sweet you got to see a lot of them

    Really on the course? Oh man. I like it. Lots of history on that course.

    Of course I managed to snag hospitality passes for yesterday. I think I saw about two hours of golf and then spent the remainder of the time drinking the free beer and food. What a drag. The walk back to the car was not fun.
    Looks like they will get it all in today.

    read somewhere that there has been something like 1.5 million PGA rounds and this has obviously never been done before.

    Olympic tournament gets started tomorrow. Think I'm going to throw some action down on Stenson and Rickie to win.
  • Empty GlassEmpty Glass Posts: 12,329
    Olympic golf:

    Do I pull for Bubba if he's tied going down the stretch? Tied with a non American. Let's just hope it's Rickie or Kuchar going for gold to make things easy.

    Read today that Bubba said he'd play for Bronze instead of risking it on 18 to go for gold. Somebody added the comment "you'd think with going by Bubba he wouldn't be such a pussy".

    :lol:

    Fuck Bubba

    Oh man, I didn't even think of that. I may actually have to root for Bubba this weekend. :anguished:

    Some really cool looking camera shots at this course with the mountains in the background.
  • Indifference71Indifference71 Posts: 14,841
    Rough start for the US. I guess we won't have to worry about rooting for Bubba. At least Kuchar put up a nice score.
  • Empty GlassEmpty Glass Posts: 12,329
    Getting my first look at the action. These greens certainly aren't flat.

    Alright now. Tuning in for the first time.Definitely looks like a cool course. I know it is supposed to be a phenomenal track.
  • Cliffy6745Cliffy6745 Posts: 33,827
    Oy +5 for Rickie
  • Indifference71Indifference71 Posts: 14,841
    Is there a cut here or does everyone play all 4 rounds?

    Would imagine with this small of a field, there isn't but I don't know. I don't think I have heard them mention anything about a cut either, but I haven't been paying that close attention.
