  1. Cam Smith. Who was tracking to be a better player than the one you describe but hasn't done anything now since the Masters last year.
  2. What about Frisco? Semien with the rare sit and Joc leading off. Oh boy. Yeah you know it's bad when Semien sits.
  3. What about @B00M? Lets exhaust our options here.
  4. I've never seen this much hype for a round of golf. The guys on Golf Channel all sound like kids in a candy store. Tiger was Tiger but he didn't have a lot of great duels like this. In 2019 he started 2 back but the board was a lot more muddled. I feel like the hype that year didn't really get going until partway through Sunday where everyone is like "oh shit he may win this thing". Also - EVERYONE was cheering for Tiger. This thing feels pretty split and you have the PGA/LIV drama - the US Open drama - the career slam on the line - how electric they both were yesterday. I'm gonna be pretty crushed if Rory can't get this one - but this would jump Bryson up a tier to being a legit superstar and that's an agreeable consolation. Just please don't let it be fucking Conners or Aberg. That's not nearly as fun. He also started 4 over. But yeah I think there are good numbers out there today.
  5. We are the only East/West matchup today - play at 2:30 with the West teams. And I won't watch one fucking second.
  6. It's also video-game conditions today - which tends to help Rory.
  7. Here is what datagolf gives. Rory's # there is in line with what books are giving - Bryson's odds are a bit higher at an implied ~27% (mainly because datagolf underrates him since there aren't any PGA Tour data points). That's ~90% of it, Conners is getting ~5.5% in both places, books are giving Scottie and Aberg 2.5% (book's listed odds obviously don't have to add up to 100%) but they are getting less than that above. I think the main problem is you have to make up 6 shots on Rory but you also have to make up 4 shots on Bryson (or 7 and 5 if your SS). Which you mentioned. It's possible. Just extremely unlikely the winner isn't from the final group or Conners.
  8. He obviously has a great PR/social media team but he's also grown up a lot and is doing stuff that no other golfer is doing - which is why he's so popular. That and the winning/contending at Majors.
  9. That's fucking fantastic.
  10. He went straight at the pin on both of those holes. Just because the putts were a little short doesn't mean he was playing defensive. He was very clearly trying to make both of those putts.
  11. Oh you meant going into Saturday.
  12. Anyone have this bet slip?
  13. He'll wrap up by 11 - 11:15.
  14. Their gallery tomorrow is going to be fucking electric.
  15. God DAMN!
  16. Rory pissed he isn't going to shoot a 63.
  17. What the fuck Rose 😂
  18. I'm not sure I've ever seen Rory this dialed. Maybe like the 2011 US Open but he had much different energy back then. And Bryson keeping it close...
  19. Probably. He's a little fucked in the head.
  20. If he rolls this on 16 forget about it.
  21. That was some Tiger shit. No there's still a huge gap.
  22. Rory has been really impressive today even after the crazy start. Couple missed putts and some bad shots but no big numbers. Feel like he's playing a shot at a time and not letting the miscues stack up. Think he needs to score a bit more either down the stretch here or tomorrow. One of these guys lurking may have a 66, 67 in them tomorrow.
  23. Huge par save.
