    Shot the most fucked up 84 today. Went 42 / 42. Took a 7 on 2. Had 3 - 3 putts on the back. Iron game was never so solid.

    Get to course and there are no carts. Guy says he has to wait for some to come in. Background on Empty, anything over 3 hours is too long. Yep, 3. I hate waiting. So I can see this has 5.5 ... 6 hours written on it. I decided to calm down and play each shot as it comes. It worked.

    Limp writing putts pisses me off though

    Tiger is awesome. A foursome with Dustin Johnson, Tiger and Alice Cooper would be awesome.

    God damn

    Tiger couldn't get anything from the putter but by far the best he has been in a very long time tee to green today it seems

    Fuck him. Comes in well back in a weak field.

    Was really hoping David Hearn could get his first win! Good effort David! Canada is proud of ya.
    Who hasn't left an 12 footer for birdie short on 18? At least he didn't three putt to lose like Mr. Paulina Gretzky

    Streb shot a 5-under 65 in the final round by making five birdie putts on the back nine with a 56-degree wedge after breaking his putter on the ninth hole. The putter broke when Streb tossed it at his bag next to the green.

    That is wild...lol. I can't put with a flatstick and this guy makes five birdies with a sand wedge

    Could have potentially won though. 3 putted on 17 from 15 or so. Was pretty wild watching him. Seemed comfortable

    He is a young man from the UK, how could he not be playing soccer? People expect athletes to live in bubble wrap away from their sport.
    Everyone was freaking out when Tom Brady was cliff jumping. Who cares? It's their life.

    Don't hear anyone admonishing Eddie Vedder for almost drowning in a storm near Hawaii (Seattle concert in Dec 2103). He was doing what he loves and had a close call. Let people learn from their own mistakes.

    Rory missing the British Open is unfortunate, but hardly a life changing event.

    I don't care if Rory has guys throw axes at his head trying to pick the apple off the top of his head. The point was, it was two weeks from the Open.

    He's probably played soccer before every major and nothing happened. Still, I play the Monday after and not days before.

    Playing soccer before the Open seems pretty tame when compared to blowing your fingers off with fireworks.

    DJ off to a great start at -7. Spieth right up there at -5 as well. Was tempted to bet Johnson to win, but didnt pull the trigger.

    Anyone ever heard of this dude named tiger? Who the hell would name their kid tiger? Anyway, when scoring opportunities were there for the taking at St. Andrews, he sucked. This dude named tiger better hope the wind doesn't pick up friday. He'll be screwed, especially since he can't score well under ideal conditions.

    In response to tiger saying that he doesn't have an AARP card yet when asked if he was pondering retirement, the AARP tweeted "it's better to be over 50 than to shoot over par!"

    Funny

    I turned it on at about 3:00 ET. Took me awhile to figure out the time difference and dwindling light. I have been in Scotland where it's still kinda light at midnight.

    well, tiger can play a few more holes and slam the trunk.

    I was all messed up last night. Couldn't sleep and threw it on at 1 am. In a daze I didn't realize it was a weather delay. Thought I was watching the second round. Took me 3 holes to realize it was a replay of round 1.
