    I'll never understand the Spieth hate. To me it's refreshing to see a guy who doesn't consistently hit it 300+ yards still be able to dominate as much as he does. He's like the Greg Maddox of golf.

    Spieth's scrambling ability and mental toughness rivals Tiger. What an unbelievable back nine.

    too funny that the big wig presenting the trophy has the usual bad British teeth.

    no offense, Brits :wink:

    So formal too. How about some high fives on the way in.

    Nice speech.

    Then the photo session. :lol:

    That took some brass balls. To make that 5 then go birdie (almost ace)-eagle-birdie-birdie. Insane

    Absolutely gutted for Kuchar. That would have been a life changing win. So close

    That was incredible.  To make a 5 there and then finish that way....his putting was out of this world.

    Oh man I wanted to cry for Kuchar...that was brutal.  That whole fiasco with Spieth's drop and him having to wait 15-20 mins between shots was just awful luck.  I still think he'll get one soon..

    I can't imagine the amount of focus needed to almost ace the next hole and then eagle the one after that after the 25 minute bogey. He's amazing.

    I am surprised there isn't a penalty for taking 30 minutes on a hole.  There should be.  

    Any one of us would be kicked off a course taking 30 minutes to play a hole.  A shot so terrible that it creates 20 minutes of delay should have more than a 1 stroke penalty attached.

    I agree with this.  I didn't want to note it in my original comments as I didn't want to come off as a complete Spieth hater, but I thought that situation was borderline unacceptable.  The groups in front played a hole and a half in the time it took for 1 shot.

    Granted much of that had to do with rules officials figuring everything out, it seemed, but there is no way that should be allowed.  That was way too much time to figure it out.

    It's not like the guy is a fast player as it is, though none of them really are
