    Varner shooting 10 over beside him can't have helped Brooks.

    It's 11 over now I believe, poor guy!

    It'd be epic if Brooks tapped in for victory and gave the finger to the crowd

    I hope he has a short one and doesn't wait to tap it in like last year. Crowd deserve that.

    I'm glad he won in the end, i wouldn't have liked to see him collapse. But i'm also glad he got a bit of a reality check of what majors are all about. He certainly felt the pressure.

    Dj the only player to shoot 4 rounds in the 60s, is an amazing performance from himself tbf

    Happy for him. But it shows just how much in the mind golf is. DJ blitzing the course and then hes in contention and he sh1ts the bed. Then Brooks has some leeway and hes happy out and brings it home again.

    Same with Rory, about to miss the cut tournament over and has a good final 2 1/3 rounds.

    Good night.

    More so aimed at the fickle fans I think?

    Just round 3. He looked rock solid all week though...except today, which was your point really so I’ll stop being pedantic now!

    The bogeys on 16 and 17 from DJ completely took the pressure off Koepka, who was surely aware of what was going on due to the crowd/leaderboards. Would've been very interesting had DJ parred even one of those holes.

    Delighted for Brooks, he is the new king. No.1 in the world now too. If he wins in Pebble Beach it'll be great.

    Crazy to think Rory finished T8 when he was +7 at one stage in the 2nd round

    I suppose this will bring an end to the "Rory has most majors of the last x years"(Where x is Current year - 2011) any time someone questions Rory's game.
    :D

    They also seemed to be waiting on almost every hole to play. Professional golf is desperate for slow play.

    This may have been mentioned here already.

    Adam Scott (I think) was playing with Patrick Cantlay yesterday. The commentators were talking about Cantlay being a slow player in general. He was taking forever (60 seconds) addressing a putt and eventually backed off it. You could see Scott in the corner of the screen throwing his arms in the air and shaking his head. The more fellow pros complain about it the better and something might be done about it.

    I think players have go to stop being so gentlemanly about it and either call out their playing partners or play on without them and leave them behind if they are taking to long.

    Dustin Johnson at one of the events earlier in the year just walked to the next tee while Patrick Reed was taking ages over a putt.

    Totally agree with the sentiment, but didn’t someone get in trouble for doing that a few years ago ? Maybe Rory Sabbatini iirc. ?
