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.

I saw it too, was it Fitz?   I thought maybe that's how it's been and I didn't know.

He’s been doing it for about 5 years. 

god damn scottie, leave some pussy for the rest of us.

Hahah, I'm convinced the jeers from that crowd on his 2nd shot is why Scottie fist pumped that nice par putt. 

 

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

If Scottie had played the par 5s better this week, he’d be up by a dozen. 

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?"

He's deflating all these people on the course that are quipping at him saying, Rory is coming to get ya.

Scottie finally showing that he's human on #8

May see lead shrink to 4 shots...

I love this sport so much.

Come on Scottie (phew that hole was like his Waterloo) put it behind you, everyone is hungry. 

 

Double makes things a little interesting. Draining those two long pars probably still keeps him safe. 

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.

I wonder if they started "Morris-proofing" the courses back then

They didn’t just cut 18 holes into a goat pasture?

Old Tom Morris designed or remodeled about 75 golf courses throughout his life in the British Isles including Prestwick, the Old Course at St Andrews, Muirfield, Royal Portrush, and Carnoustie.

Would like to see Scottie with a couple of birds or better yet an eagle to get to -18 and crush hopes.  

There's one, -17.  Let us hear the  lamentations of their women.

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.

Lots of guys were dialed in for 3 rounds. They’re all fighting for 2nd behind the one guy that was dialed in for all four. 

Gotterup trying to hold on to that extra $700k for solo 2nd, or whatever the math is.  It's a chunk.

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 😐

He has a ways to go to be the best ever golfer from the state of Texas. Ben Hogan won 9 majors, including the career grand slam. Lee Trevino won 6. Bryon had 5. 

 

 

also i've wanted a spider putter for some time 

just need to pull the trigger
