Given the conviction of each player I'm surprised Berger didn't play two balls

How would forumers have handled the same scenario?

Throw clubs in the lake and storm off in a hissy fit. Return later to sheepishly retrieve clubs, phone, wallet, car keys.
 
Looks like JT has borrowed his shoes from Coco the clown. ?
For me, I'm getting pedal pushers and high heels.
Whatever, it looks completely ridiculous.
But given the way the no-marks have already started getting twitchy, he must have a decent chance of winning tomorrow.

“The no marks” ? What a complimentary soul you are. Certainly looks like Davis Riley was twitchy with a 62 ? cracking round. JT definitely in with chance though - could be a good final round.

haha. Obviously I'm in the perfect position to judge from my lofty 9.6 handicap....
I also think it will be an entertaining final round. I suspect that the ahem... less experienced players who've barely won anything... will contribute to the up and down nature of it!
 
Why does Bryson get two club lengths for a free drop? Is that a rule for the pros?
I’ve often said pros should play it as it lies or take a penalty. Hit it into a grandstand, tough.

Yes, see what you mean, but if the course was being played as designed the
grandstand wouldn't be there to impede a swing. ( I know they sometimes help the wayward shot, but that is why the pros have the relief that they do have.)
But why two club lengths? As Kaz says!
 
Why not make it, if you are up against the stands , have a drop. Actually in the stands, penalty shot.

The stands are stopping the balls going further from the hole.
 
Just seen the first days results. Can I presume Niemann had a shocker, or was McNealy just on fire?! 8&6 is virtually unheard of!

Usually love watching this, but not sure I'll get to catch any sadly.
 
As per usual TV coverage completely failing to understand matchplay. You'd think John Rahm was playing himself - seeing lots of him and nothing of his opponent.

Already lost count of the times they've cut away from putts for halves.... frustrating to watch.
 
In general, American TV golf coverage is just bad. Even in strokeplay events they would appear to concentrate on “known players” that are performing worse than a “no name” that is playing well, and fairly high up the leaderboard.

Very true, also lost count of the times a player like Doug Ghim seems to appear 1 off the lead teeing off 17, despite never having been seen in the first 3.9 days of the event.

I'm going to try and keep track to see if particular sponsors players get prefered coverage...

Danny Willets masters win was another example hardly seen him until Spieths meltdown
