    Day-spieth final group Sunday at major. Doesn't get much better

    Serious question...who you want tomorrow? Just curious, you're a Day guy (I'm pulling for him to win one) and a Olympic guy (should pull USA). Not trying to be a dick, just want to know your thoughts. It's a tough one.
    I'd like to see Spieth win and then go on and win the Fedex Cup, sealing the most impressive season ever.
    Even if he did. That's a pretty bold statement.

    Tiger had 9 wins in one season and won more than half the tournaments he played in in another. Don't think jack really had too many crazy seasons with how little he played, burnt am sure hogan and arnie have some pretty solid seasons too. That said, 3 majors gets you up there pretty quickly
    Yeah it's bold but if he wins tomorrow and takes down the fedex cup, he has to be in the conversation. I just tried to find a solid ranking of best golf season and came up with this. Take it for what it is but it's impressive for his age. Blows away what Tiger did at 22.

    I don't disagree at all
    Guys would kill just to have the amount of top tens this guy has posted since he started. His game seems to be so much more consistent than Rory's too. I like watching him play.
    no doubt. He is obviously awesome. Something about the whole "aw shucks" thing kind of annoys me but his second shot on 13 in the final round of the masters is by far my favorite shot of the year.

    I love Rory's swing.

    No one has ever won the 3 U.S. Majors in one year. Spieth can

    3 majors in a year is 3 majors in a year, regardless of where it's played.

    Hell of a year for him regardless of what happens tomorrow. A lot of good players under 30 on tour right now. Golf is in a good spot

    Hopefully Day holds on. Will be a nice payout on my 10/1 bet on him for the tourney. Day/Spieth final pairing is going to be awesome.

    Also...tony finau. For the simple fact that a big break contestant winning a major would be something

    he grew up maybe 10 miles west of where I'm at in a super depressed part of town. definitely not a golf hotbed. good story.
