US Open 2019

Yes he's had the greatest impact, especially in this era.

But every generation has their 'greatest'. The only way you can measure that is in major/tour wins, and Tiger is lacking in both of those.

Tiger is the greatest in yours and others opinion. But in mine he isnt.

And let's face it in 20 or 30 years time, the next generation will have their own 'greatest' and unless he reaches actually gets to the top of the lists that matter, that generation could well say 'Tiger who?'

Whenever Tiger plays, all the commentators ever ask is whether Tiger will reach or break Jack's major record. So that just shows what the benchmark is.

Yet a lot of them still say Tiger is the greatest golfer go figure 🤔

It's objective we won't agree and it's just detracting from this thread.

I'm so annoyed, he was on my shortlist of people I was considering betting on but I didn't pick him in the end.

To all of my friends "across the pond"; what a great US Open. My apologies to those of you that had to stay up past 3:00 AM to see today's finish. I'm thrilled the USGA was not able to screw up Pebbile Beach. This might be the best US Open in recent memory. Also, unlike this guy who claims to be our president, I guess I'm a globalist when it comes to golf. I'll be pulling for Rosie all day tomorrow. He is without question a class act. I still remember 1998 when he holed out to finish second to Mark O'Meara in the Open. Enjoy the final round!

 

[BubbaP]

Will obviously by pulling for Rose. However do quite like Woodland and be good to have a new major winner. Will be interesting to see if Koepka breaks from his up till now pretty cautious strategy to press a score or just sits and hopes.

 

[Bazz]

Why does McGinley have to say 'it may have plugged' almost every time the ball goes in the bunker?! He's so infuriating to listen to

He really doesn't help overcome the 8 hour difference

Teed up incredibly well for tonight. Rose v Woodland with Brooks, Louis and Rory all with a chance to get out and make some birdies before the final 2 are out.

Shame about the time!! Luckily I work from home Mondays so will call it a night after 3/4 holes from Rose, avoid the result and watch it 'live' once I've dropped the nipper at nursery.

 

[Imurg]

I think Brooks has to shoot the lights out to get there
Woodland and Rosie don't look like shooting Par - difficult to see one of them not beating par.
Easy pins, soft greens and little wind and the best score in R1 and R2 was, what, 65?
65 is a big ask on US Open Sunday.
If Woodland is a couple under, Rosie too, then that will be the end of Brooks' Three-peat - whoever thought that up needs kicking!

Anyone from 4 under is in with a chance - last round of the US Open , lots of things can happen and there are some real quality players just sitting there.

It will all be about mentality now - Woodland was going well in the PGA last season and faded , I don’t see his game and mental strength being strong enough to finish the job , will Rose play safe or attack ? Rory has to go for it and put a few birdies on the board early and the pressure changes - but for me Koepka is in the perfect place - 4 back can disappear within a couple of holes with a few big swing holes.

One of the front two will fade and hopefully the likes of Koepka and Rory make an early change to make it a great final 9

Shame it’s so late that I don’t think I will watch anything of the main guys

I'm hoping for Rose to see the job out.

I think Rahm is a big danger though

I'm going off you 😜

If woodland loses to anyone I hopes it rose tbf.

 

[IanM]

Shame the business end of this is a daft o’clock in our time zone........will have to see nightlights tomorrow

😂😂 Sorry Papas,it's only cos i've got a few quid on Rose.

If Rose chokes then i hope Woodland does it.

 

[Dan2501]

Brooks to shoot 65 and win it I reckon. Would like to see Rose get the job done though.

 

[Papas1982]

😂😂 Sorry Papas,it's only cos i've got a few quid on Rose.

If Rose chokes then i hope Woodland does it.

I'm at £170 cash out atm. I'm hoping woodland gets a fast start. If he does I'll just use likely place money to cover.. Then get burnt as he finishes 11th!

 

[pokerjoke]

I think Rose will win,really can’t see anyone coming from behind due to the scoring yesterday not being low.
Will be watching

 

[Deleted member 1147]

I’m hoping to see lots of Tiger in the early footage, before the leaders go out.
Then to wake up to a Rose 🌹 victory. With Rory runner up.
🤞👍

Rahm currently 125/1, or 25/1 without Woodland and Rose. can't see it myself, but big odds there.

Justin Ray delivers some fantastic little stats. Also, 9 of the last 11 US Opens have been won those entering the final round in 1st or 2nd, and each of the last 20 winners have been within 4 shots of the leader going into the final round.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Won't be staying up to silly o'clock with work tomorrow and while I think Rose knows how to do it I have a strong inkling Oosthuizen will triumph
