    dumb question....how do they determine friday tee times? kisner was leading yesterday and has already finished today.

    I think the general rule is you play in the morning one day and in the afternoon the other day for 1st and 2nd round of tournaments.  So the guys who play Thursday afternoon generally play Friday morning.

    Yeah, they flip them.  First out Thursday is last out Friday and so on.

    I'm in this golf majors pool and you can only use each guy once for the year. ...payouts for each tournament and an overall champion.  It's all based on prize money.  I'm 3rd out of 40 going into this weekend.  Felt great about the 5 I picked for the PGA with Rory, Spieth, Hideki, JT and Hoffman.  Of course Spieth is dogshit when I finally used him.  Hopefully Hideki and JT stay near the top...could be looking at a big win if I'm the champion for the whole year.

    Yeah I'm in a full season one. Pick every week. It's great and I have liked my picks, but I'm doing terribly

    Should be an interesting day today. Hoping for an easier setup than yesterday. Would like to see some birdies.

    JT or Hideki for me. I like Kisner a lot, but he's not a major winner

    Punch it out and it's a 6 in the absolute worst case scenario. 9 times out of 10 it's a 5

    Agreed.  Yesterday I could have threaded it between two trees (but then again, it is me and I can't do that) so I punched out to the fairway.  Unfortunately, that does not mean my worst case scenario is a 6.  Ha.

    Grew up with a kid named Chris Stroud. Hope he's doing alright.

    Not a fan of this Chris Stroud in the least. Stupid pants, stupid putter and a suuuuuuper stupid pre shot routine.

    Good for him for getting here. Better not win.

    Yeah, Stroud looks ridiculous out there...the pants and shoes are awful.  Guy is in the final group in the 4th round of a major and he looks like a complete clown.

    Awful. And get the sunglasses of the back of his head. Either put them on your eyes or put them in the bag.
