    Whoever it was in the PGA admin who paired De chambollox and Day together must need their heads examined, I don't like Casey but kind of felt sorry for him being paired with those two

    ^
    I know what we'll do, we'll put the two slow guys together then its only one slow group!


    oh...wait...


  • Registered Users Posts: 471 ✭✭PhuckHugh22


    Paul Casey is every bit as slow as both of them guys.

    Actually, there is logic to putting slow players together. It gives them a taste of their only medicine and forces them to speed up in order to avoid being put on the clock and possibly penalised.

    Koepka has the right idea. Slows down early on or goes to the toilet or something so the whole group is placed on the clock. Then they are forced to play at his normal pace.

    If there is one thing in Golf I despise, it is slow play, and you can definitely see it filtering through to some club players following what some of the pro players are doing. I can understand that some shots at crucial times in tournaments need more attention, but some lads absolutely take the p1ss


  • Registered Users Posts: 797 ✭✭✭SeeMoreBut


    I can't stand slow golfers. I don't care who they are. Yes they can all have a slow shot but consistent slow I can't support that player and Dunner is in that group


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,524 ✭✭✭Deeper Blue


    JB Holmes seems to always get lambasted for slow play yet media darlings Day and Rose are just as bad yet it's never mentioned


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,524 ✭✭✭Deeper Blue


    Final round 64 for Viktor Hovland in his 2nd event as a pro, currently T7. Had a good debut last week also. I heard Rich Beem during the US open predicting that he'd make the Ryder cup next year, one to watch for sure, it'll be interesting to see how he gets on.

    Big win for Nate Lashley who has a fairly heartbreaking backstory

    https://eu.usatoday.com/story/sports/golf/2019/06/29/rocket-mortgage-classic-nate-lashley-personal-loss/39639931/
    While a junior at Arizona, his parents and girlfriend were killed in a plane crash on their way home from watching him compete at the 2004 NCAA West Regional.

    Yeah, absolutely delighted for Lashley. It could be the start of something really special too. He was pretty awesome this week.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,079 ✭✭✭Dbu


    Just shows how someones life can change in 7 days.
    They have just finished 1,2 on the PGA tour yesterday

    This was last Monday 24th June, taken from Monday qualifying on twitter


    'On mon these 2 guys were playing at a course about an hr away from Detroit CC After the round there was 1 media member and maybe 10 fans. When they posted Redman's score up on handwritten scoreboard and he got a few handshakes. Lashley walked directly to his car'

    Has Wolfe dropped JP for good? Or is it just for this week?

    Pretty short lived relationship if so.

    This is a bit of a cracker tonight


  • Registered Users Posts: 871 ✭✭✭Remind me


    Unreal finish


  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭✭ Mira Melodic Tour


    That was insane would have been great to see the last eagle putt drop but wow


  • Registered Users Posts: 379 ✭✭rooney30


    A sucker punch to De Chambeau, It was beautiful




  • Has Wolfe dropped JP for good? Or is it just for this week?

    Looks like he dropped him.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,067 ✭✭✭bigtimecharlie


    That was some finish. Bryson was too cocky thinking that the youngsters don't know how to win. Nice to see him getting stuffed.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,524 ✭✭✭Deeper Blue


    Great finish, this Wolff lad has been given a huge buildup, didn't take him long to justify it :eek:

    Great finish. Someone on here tipping him to do big things a couple of months ago. Brilliant shout now!!




  • Wolff's swing is absolutely ridiculous looking. But he is in a good position at impact so that's the main thing I suppose. Mad looking swing though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,719 ✭✭✭ionadnapokot


    Bump for the Sunday showdown
    Nice leaderboard to keep the interest going into the eve

  • Registered Users Posts: 21,099 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Koepka makes birdie, Rory misses an easy putt for what would be a great up and down. Can't afford to do that


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,961 ✭✭✭bren2001


    Is this on the red button? Sky golf showing the senior open

    Flicking inbetween at moment, with emphasis on Senior Open


  • Registered Users Posts: 736 ✭✭✭TCM


    Rory misses 3ft birdie putt on p5 third. Koepka gets birdie. Intimidating McIlroy already.

    Koepka hit an 8 iron 210 yards on the last par 3!! That’s just ridiculous.
