June 18, 20223 yr Tirico lecturing us on what’s good for the sport right before NBC takes its trillionth commercial break of the morning is pretty cool.

You fans will lose. Because you won’t see all the best guys together anymore. Maybe. But, it’s not guaranteed to play out that way. We shall see.

With all due respect, you have your LIV thread to discuss this topic. We're talking about the US Open up in here.

I started that thread so as not to overshadow the US Open. This was a direct response to a post on here (literally one of only three that’s been made since the tournament started today- counting my response and then yours, so… yeah not a single post about the golf today). Now on the tee from Louisville Kentucky, Justin Thompson. Good job starter. Edited June 18, 20223 yr by Wulaw Horn

Yeah they don’t have to get 156 guys through anymore so no more start times at 6:00 am central for big time players. Spieth still can’t putt. DJ looks sharp so far. I could see him shooting 66 today. That would put him 3 under- no idea if it would be contention or not with such a stacked leaderboard.

June 18, 20223 yr Why didn't JT get relief there? Imagine if Reed or Dechambeau had that lie. They would have bitched and bitched until the lady let them drop.

That was a stupid lack of relief. She sucks. Probably not doesn’t mean shouldn’t be no relief. Then the lackeys on tv slurp up the usga ruling. Terrible judgment. That could be catastrophic injury if it went badly and he stuck the club on descent or follow through. Good way to fuck up your wrists. It’s the middle of the fairway. You shouldn’t have to deal with that bullshit. There’s no way if I was playing with a dude- even in match play- that I wouldn’t give relief there.

June 18, 20223 yr Everyone on 5 in that front bunker had come 8-20 feet short and missed the putt on 5 near as I can tell. jordy with a made 15 footer!
June 18, 20223 yr I like this set up by the USGA. Couple eagle opportunities on the par 5’s, a drive-able par 4, thick rough, tough set up, but seemingly fair. So far they’ve done a good job with this tournament which doesn’t always happen. I say that as someone whose favorite tournament is the US Open.

Risking injury trying to hit that shot. It's relief in any game or tournament i've ever played. But none of those were USGA.

The USDA can be stupid. I’ve never met a golfer- and I’ve played with pros and plenty of college guys who wouldn’t automatically say that’s relief.

Wasn't watching yet
June 18, 20223 yr JT’s ball was near a drain but it didn’t interfere with his swing path or stance. He was honest about how he’d play the shot and relief didn’t apply. Most players would’ve lied about how they intended to play the shot
June 18, 20223 yr Just now, pops said: Dumb question amnesty.... what happened? Wasn't watching yet He hit a ball in the middle of the fairway that rolled down to a couple inches, maybe, from a big drain. His stance wasn’t affected bc the drain was between his feet and the ball. He chunked his shit, I’m sure because he was psychologically worried about injury. It was way to close to definitely say it didn’t or wouldn’t affect his shot imo.

Most players would’ve lied about how they intended to play the shot When they asked him if he was going to hit it he said “probably not.” Certainly wasn’t definitive.

June 18, 20223 yr 4 minutes ago, Revolution512 said: Rub of the green as they say and it’s a bitch To me rub of the green is a ball settling in a divot- or hitting a sprinkler head and bouncing out of play, or something like that- not a shitty ruling. but yeah- lots of shit you don’t control out there.

June 18, 20223 yr DeChambeau's slow play is such a beating... Takes 5 minutes to do his calculus calculations on approach into #13... then dumps it 40yds short into the pond in front of the green... 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Now BDC is +9
June 18, 20223 yr 15 minutes ago, Jive Turkey said: JT was not happy. Wow. That's crazy. You have no idea if that has a lip underneath it that is covered up by turf. That's relief all day for anyone I'm playing with. I agree with JTs sentiments.

June 18, 20223 yr Lol notah says 177 to the hole just as the nbc graphic goes up saying 199 to the hole.
June 18, 20223 yr Maybe he is used to meters and slipped back to that? 177 meters is like 193 yards, so that's closer at least

June 18, 20223 yr This course is going to eat some dudes alive today. Guessing the leading score doesn't move (or doesn't get lower I should say). Edited June 18, 20223 yr by ztejas

June 18, 20223 yr So we can't show either of Rory's approach shots on 3 but we can squeeze in some stupid footage of a caddy chasing a hat. Glad the broadcast is catered for wives and 12 year olds.

June 18, 20223 yr Why are birdies so easy to make after you just threw your round away by making a quad?
