Great memories

I went to a senior event at Loch Lloyd when they played here and followed a group with Lee Trevino and Chi Chi Rodriguez. What a day that was.

I can't stand the really slow players, they drive me crazy.

Brian Harmon, the waggle king, slowest golfer I've ever seen.

Really excited watching this US Open today.

If Bryson goes 2 under for the day, I think he wins.

One brutally tough course. Can't wait to see how the 13th destroys dreams.

Such a tough course to play. If you win this one you’ve earned it.

I love watching these types of courses. Hate how easy Valhalla was at the PGA Championship. The US Open should be difficult.

True, when I see final rounds in the -17 scores or so you know it’s to easy.

I think it will come down to DeChambeau or Mcilroy.

DeChambeau just ****ed up big time off the tee.

He is going to drop at least one

The course is definitely winning the battle right now.

scho63 06-16-2024 02:10 PM

I don't want to see Cantlay to win. Not a fan of his.

I hate the wire grass. It brings to much luck into the game. There's some luck when it comes to lies you get in the rough but the wire grass makes luck even more of a factor. And then I understand the greens and false fronts and false sides and false backs but you shouldn't hit it on the green and then have it roll off into a native area like what happened to Rory. That was messed up.

There is always a little bit of luck in every golf round. Even as a low handicapper I am surprised you feel that way.

Here comes Rory.

I think Pinehurst is one of the most overrated US Open courses. I loved Valhalla. Very beautiful and rewarded almost every good shot. There is a reason McIlroy and DeChambeau are leading with these dumb turtle shell greens. They just bomb it as far as they can and hit the shortest iron in they can which has a much better chance to hold the green.

I like watching Dechambeau but he's gotten very lucky with the lies in the waste areas when he misses the fairway. But having it head to head with Rory and Bryson has got to be the golf producers dream.
