Patrick Cantlay

Makes Jason Day look speedy zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Have you heard about his past couple years though ? On top of his horrific injuries he was out walking with his caddy and his caddy got knocked down and killed right in front of him - suffered from depression for a while as well.
 
I knew the first part, didnt know about the caddie incident no

Awful time for him - commentary was saying that he used to be a very quick player. Wonder if he has that back injury in his mind still.

Not sure, strange isnt it as I followed him a fair bit as an amateur and turned on tonight wanting to support him and after 2 holes was struggling to watch him.

Always difficult to separate things I guess but really does need to just get on and hit it at times. The back injury may be a niggle, may just be that the time hes had off the game hes "overworked" on the mental side/psr etc

Hadwin as bad to watch with his caddie clearly wanting to hit the shots for him!
 
thanks BIM, sad story :( on the plus side he should have secured himself a card tonight

You're welcome; doesn't make pleasant reading, does it? :eek: As Homer said, not sure how that impacts his speed of play but having read all of that I'd cut him a lot more slack than some others.
 
That guys been through it and a bit harsh to bash him,major talent and after watching him yesterday he clearly has a lot of game and a great career ahead in tour golf.
 
Was a fascinating final few holes. Shades of Phil/henrick, followed by two dodgy old bunker shots to lose it. They both look like they'll do well this season.
 
I really dont understand what you guys are getting at,they weren't penalised for slow play :confused:,those two guys had never won on tour and were trying to keep steady to cope with it especially Cantlay after what he's been through.These guys are playing for a living and its tough the other side of the ropes,its not your local monthly medal :rolleyes:.
 
It must all be relative, or the fact that TV shows more of the leaders faffing rather than just cutting to shots of others guys.

I watched the last group tee off at 6.55pm our time. Went away to do other stuff and when I came back at 8.25 they were on the 11th.

That's 10 holes in 1.5hrs.
Doesn't seem slow to me :confused:
 
Good to see Patrick lock up his card for the year. Should free him up the rest of the year, I expect a few more close finishes. He has the game to win multiple times on tour.
