McIlroy showed a lot of class with those comments after putting up an 80

This is the stuff that cracks me up:
Tiger's "new" putter is still a direct clone of a Ping Anser 2, just like his Scotty Cameron Newport. It's the Indian, not the arrow. |

Phil with a great round of -4 going duck hooks an IRON off the tee OB on 16...with a double fairway to his left...thus in turn killing all of his momentum.
Only Phil lol...SMH. |

That's just a mental error. You should never put yourself in the position where that's even an option on that hole.

Phil will always be undone in the Open by his inability to properly control distances with his irons. He's not good at it in regular conditions, and when you add in the wind and his trajectory, it only exacerbates his weakness.
He also hasn't been helped by several lip-outs, but to be honest, I'm not a big fan of the Stockton putting method. It's too steep. And a horrible approach on 17. |

He was actually putting well today...not striking it well though for the most part.
He just doesn't have the trajectory to do well at the Open...hits it way too high. |

He has flighted the ball down better than in the past, but he's so focused on piss pounding his irons that he doesn't do a good job of controlling the distance. I'm not a big fan of the forward press. You hit the ball very solid, but you tend to push or pull everything. |

That's why Phil has a higher loft on his putter now than in the past. |

And that's poor course management there, too.
If you're worried about hitting a flushed driver too far, hit a 3/4 chip cut with the big dog. It will go longer than the 3 wood, but not as far as one you nut. |

Heh! I'm watching the international feed of the British Open. No commercials for one, but the announcers are good and say stuff I have no idea what they're talking about. Westwood just made a long putt and the announcer said, "I wonder if that will light the blue paper under Westwood?" Huh?

You have to give it to Oosthuizen so far. That sad, you still have to think he's got a 78 in him tomorrow.

This is a virtuoso performance. No one has dominated a major like this since Tiger at St. Andrews in 2000.
