Thank fucking god he missed that.

I stepped away. you gotta be talking about reed.

for whatever reason, koepka is about my last choice to win this.

maybe fleetwood sneaks in? I doubt it. needed that last putt.

Fleetwood. Didn’t want him setting the us open record with these pins today.

but then you could have quit having to hear about johnny miller

Koepka’s gonna deserve this.

DJ falling apart early. I have money on Fleetwood so I hope he catches him.

Caught DJ but not Koepka... Fleetwood second with a rush...

crazy that koepka has 4 PGA wins and 2 are US Opens.

Cliffy6745 · June 2018

That’s a big boy win. Dude is giddy

Land in Scotland in two weeks! I was planning on canceling that part of the trip but American Airlines has told me that would cost $3,000, so I am not canceling. I have booked no hotels or courses as I was planning to cancel. I believe my only shot at the Old Course will be an early, early arrival and hoping to be placed in a group. I don't want to waste time though and not play since I'll only be there 3.5 days. I'll be in St. Andrews though so it can't be all bad. I love it that sunrise is 4:24am and sunset is 10:00pm though! I'll be by myself so I figure it may be easier to get paired up with a twosome or threesome.

Sweet. Hope you get out on the Old Course.
Dress warm.

I bought some rain gear but probably not good enough. Makes it tough to pack when going from 80's to 50's.

That's sweet. The Old Course is definitely a bucket list for me, but from what I understand it won't be one of the more enjoyable rounds from a purely golf round standpoint. It takes a couple times playing to "get it", apparently.

That said, have read a good amount on golf over there and the local muni tracks are some of the most fun courses to play. That said, tons of options from anything on the British Rota, to mid level courses to munis. There are a number of sites dedicated to tourists playing golf in Scotland or Ireland, so check them out when you book.

Cobb’s creek, a pretty historic but dump of a course looks like it may be getting restored. Would be pretty amazing news. I have only played it a couple time and while it is an absolute dump, it’s a glorious, championship, track

Cliffy6745 · June 2018

Players love this tournament now. Hell of a field

The Juggler · June 2018

FINALLY driving the ball well and playing good golf again for first time since last year. I wish I can bottle this for the rest of my life.

Hope you get on. If you can't get on there, I've heard the Castle course is really cool and a nice track, so hopefully you can play one of the courses around there at least. I'm hoping to go over there next year possibly to play some courses. I'll be playing Chambers Bay during my PJ Seattle trip and really looking forward to it. Just hope I don't completely fall apart in my round.

This past Saturday, my girlfriend and I went to go eat at a Mexican restaurant down the street from our house for lunch. The hostess was taking us to our table and sat us next to a table with like 4 kids and 3 adults and I look over at the table as I sit down and it was Brandt Snedeker and his wife. I leaned over to my girlfriend and I was like "hey, that's Brandt Snedeker" and of course her response was "who?". As I was trying to tell her he was a pro golfer and was from the area she gave me a look like I she doesn't care, so I just said nevermind, you've ruined the moment lol

I think Snedecker is a good dude, but that name is right out of caddyshack.
