    He's gotta be DQ'd right?  That was absurd.  
    He has to be but sounds like they’re not gonna. He needs to do it himself. His laughing and all after. Fuck that guy. Don’t embarrass this country’s championship.

    His most coveted tournament is gonna be a highlight full of 2nds and that...good
    Wow.  Fuck the USGA.  He should be DQ'd as soon as he steps off the 18th green.

    I just can't believe that's only a 2 stroke penalty.  That should be an automatic DQ.  So many strange rules in golf.

    Fucking love this. Fuck these guys. If it’s not a birdie fest, they’re soft. Tom Watson loved difficult conditions because half the field was out of it before they hit a shot. No good shots are being unfairly punished.

    I was coming on here to ask if anyone actually gave a shit about that McKelson play and I guess soemone does, lol.

    What's the big deal?  How is this making it a "mockery" like that Ass-Jack Joe Buck said?

    Oh hey look. DJ is hitting better shots and isn’t scoring like dog shit. But yeah, the course is unfair...

    i haven't seen the entire tourney, seen some play, but to bitch and moan that the course is too hard... i call BS.  Adapt your game and play on... face the challenge head on and see where you fall.   Its awesome seeing them struggle and deal with the conditions... DJ class act.. he knows what its about.

    beer is good...happy fathers day gang!

    Every time there is a US open match in NY it chews up the competition, whether it be Shinecock or Bethpage black, the courses are just harder and the pros are not prepared for it.

    Anybody remember John Dalys 15 on a hole?  That was great, lol.

    Phil Mickelson running after that putt is the only redeeming thing about this year's U.S. Open.  In my opinion just call it and move on to the next tournament.

    I actually like to see the pros suffer.  For years I've played on subpar courses out in the desert or off the beaten path and accepted it as such.  These guys get a little bit of displacement and they fall apart.

    I love it.

    For the record I always played better on better maintained courses too, go figure...

    Boom. Correct. The course is in fine shape. It burned out. It was slow yesterday and now it’s too fast. Man up

    Not posted here in a long while and have not read what was posted.   Phil was a knucklehead at first thought, but probably was just smarter than most and saved strokes.  The USGA is a cumdumpster with their setups.  Get over yourselves.  A good shot should be rewarded, not punished by grass cut too short and gravity

    Scrolled back and read a few and my PSU boy Cliffs differs from me...oh well.  I stand firm, the USGA is a shitshow.  Make it tough, but make it fair

    I like the course being hard, but not because the greens are a clusterfuck.   It seems like you could make every course difficult by drying out the greens.   

    I would rather there be trees, penalizing rough, water hazards, risk/reward shots.  Not greens that are shit.  Chambers Bay gets a lot of grief but greens equally as bad on this top course of all time.  Fire Mike Davis.
