    Great reaction from Rahmbo.
    I honestly don’t miss the fans at all.

    As much as I hate Jon Rahm, that was one of the greatest putts I have ever seen.

    And DJs was also one of the greatest putts I have ever seen :pac:

    That would take beating, a great finish, Rahm shot 130 in the last two rounds

    It was almost unbelievable!

    Hate Rahm though? The tantrums?

    Exactly. I know I am no angel on the golf course but I'm not slamming clubs around.

    I think DJ's putt was the better of the two despite being shorter.

    He needed it to keep the tournament going. Took his time surveying it and like all of his putts tried to get as close to dead pace as he could. Not just make sure it got there and hope the hole got in the way. It was absolutely amazing given the circumstances.

    Rahm admitted at the end he just picked a spot at the top of the hill and hoped he'd have a makeable par putt which was fair enough. Ultimate bonus going in.

    They compared DJ's to Tigers on the 17th in the players back in the day. That's BS. That was a Saturday afternoon. Not taking away that it was also amazing. Thought DJ's and Rahm's were better though.

    I think it was Paul’s mistake there. They agreed on a club and Paul took the wrong one out of the bag (3 iron) if memory serves me right.

    Caddy didn’t hand him the club.

    I’d have thought a pro would know the club when he’s holding it. Would they in general?

    Put it this way Harrington would know the difference!

    His 3 iron is a 4 iron that has been bent straight (prob by 5 degrees)

    When it goes 10 yrd farther for a pro, it's the club. The very club you bent to make it go 10 yards further!
    As if he didnt know what happened straight away.

    Casey is such a fake. Almost as bad as McIlroy.

    Again could you imagine Harrington carrying on like that or even Tiger?
    Not a chance.
    It's completely on the player.

    Pretty sure when I was younger and played tonnes I would have been pretty confident telling a club from looking at it, Casey should absolutely have known. Probably why he couldn't get that angry at the caddy

    I assume the whole point of the video was that the caddy handed him the wrong club? Isn't that why the caddy is looking so sheepish after the shot? Casey flushes the shot and presumably knows how far it should have went but when it one hops off the back he's a bit baffled, hence the face pulling. If that's how it went down then Casey took it very well.

    It's funny how two people can watch the exact same thing and see two different things!

    Did you see the discussion before he hit the shot?

    I did.
    What "carry on" do you think Casey did that the other golfers wouldn't do?
    What is fake about him, based on the video?

    It's obvious to me whats fake about it. His reaction. It went further than he thought! Why the confusion? It's the club!

    The video makes it look like that, but Casey was the one that pulled the club out of the bag. Funny how the snip of the video changes how people conceive it.

    Caddy probably looks sheepish because he didn't notice either.

    Yeah. "Longsocks" gave him the yardage. Casey pulled the club
    It's a modified 4-iron Mizuno JPX 919 Hot Metal Pro (With a straightened Nippon N.S. Pro Modus3 Tour shaft)

    He only put it in the bag the week before.
    edit
    He could have put it in a few wks before at St Jude. Definitely didnt have it when he won Valspar

    His reaction is "why did that perfect shot go 10 yards longer that it should have?"

    The confusion is that they didnt know they had the wrong club?

    Dont think I've ever seen a timer for time since a leader hit the fairway. Johnson only hit 2 so far today, think that's out of 12 by now.
