July 20Jul 20 It’s so stress free for him. Play for par with a look a birdie. And now his putting has gotten good enough that a lot of the birdies are dropping.

July 20Jul 20 Hahah, I'm convinced the jeers from that crowd on his 2nd shot is why Scottie fist pumped that nice par putt.
July 20Jul 20 The only drama this year is whether Scottie can set the largest margin of victory since the 1800's Largest margins of victory at The Open: 13 strokes – Old Tom Morris, 1862 12 strokes – Young Tom Morris, 1870 11 strokes – Young Tom Morris, 1869 8 strokes – JH Taylor, 1900 and 1913 8 strokes – James Braid, 1908 8 strokes – Tiger Woods, 2000
July 20Jul 20 Wonder why nbc didn’t mention any of those guys and instead went with tiger as the largest MOV
July 20Jul 20 so which reporter is going to ask him "I know you've won 2 majors but how do you feel about your chances in the fedex cup playoffs?"
July 20Jul 20 He's deflating all these people on the course that are quipping at him saying, Rory is coming to get ya.
July 20Jul 20 Author Scottie finally showing that he's human on #8 May see lead shrink to 4 shots... Edited July 20Jul 20 by LTtxfan typo
July 20Jul 20 I love this sport so much. Come on Scottie (phew that hole was like his Waterloo) put it behind you, everyone is hungry.
July 20Jul 20 Double makes things a little interesting. Draining those two long pars probably still keeps him safe.
July 20Jul 20 Toying with the field now. Here’s 2 back. Just kidding, I’ll get them back now. It’s like his lead had him feeling comfortable playing some risky shots.

July 20Jul 20 Would like to see Scottie with a couple of birds or better yet an eagle to get to -18 and crush hopes.
July 20Jul 20 His feel for yardage is unmatched. When he switched clubs on the par 3, landed short, rolled close. Birdie. Wtf man, that's like when you're a kid, all you need is what the sprinkler head says and your eye. His game is so simple and on point.

July 20Jul 20 Gotterup trying to hold on to that extra $700k for solo 2nd, or whatever the math is. It's a chunk.
July 20Jul 20 Congrats Scottiford. Gets a chance to pick up the slam starting next year. Bryson with 65/68/64 to close. Shouldn't have shot that 78 Thursday 😐

Ben Hogan won 9 majors, including the career grand slam. Lee Trevino won 6. Bryon had 5.
