US Open Thread-***May Have Spoilers***

I like Butch Harmon.

"Here's Monty, who won 3 senior majors in a year, and if you're close enough he'll tell you about it." :rofl:

Yes very good. I remember when he (Monty) started punditing on Sky he never stopped banging on about winning The Ryder Cup as captain.

Loving the course and coverage.

Looks like the course is playing a dam sight easier than expected and with weather set fair a winning score of 10 under will probably be closer than the level par that was being talked about.

Agree Monty has had loads of putts for birdies and Dustin Johnson is a talented golfer.

Course looks amazing, although the greens look a bit grim close-up.

Rory could be up with DJ if he'd holed a few putts. He seems to be sticking it closer to the pins than anyone else.

Bubba seemed happy about the pace of play there.......

 

[HawkeyeMS]

Anyone else hear Bubba just then after his approach to 18.

"Waiting 30 minutes, this is pathetic for Professional golf"

Sounds like it's 5[SUP]1[/SUP]/[SUB]2[/SUB] hour rounds

 

[Jimaroid]

Bubba complain after a bad shot? Surely not?

Wasn't even that bad. Middle of the green from 300 yards.

Dustin Johnson making this look rather easy!

The shout from the crowd as bubba couldnt get near the flag in the 18th made me giggle. Not very often you hear a proper heckle. Im surprised he didnt snap at the "amateur" remark thrown at him.

Course looks great, would love to play it

£1 e/w on monty at 500/1, had a feeling he'd do ok here

 

[J5MBF]

Greens resemble cricket wickets!

 

[Dan2501]

Rory's putting just not good enough to score low on challenging courses right now. Played well tee-to-green, but just couldn't convert. Not good.

 

[JohnnyDee]

Go on Henrik! I have him in our Pro's raffle for the tournament.

Hope he can cope with the pressure of hanging in there until Sunday knowing that if he wins then he wins an £800 Motocaddy M7 for ickle-wickle me.

Let the Tiger show begin!

Butch is already off with his "purfick"s, into double figures in last few minutes

 

[Jimaroid]

It's really really annoying how many times Butch says 'really'. He really needs to stop it as, once you notice it, it's really really bothersome and really repetitive. I mean, really!

Glad to see he's backed off the "Wow!" and "Yessir" count though.

Really? Not really noticed.

Course looks brilliant, and what a setting.

Shame about the greens, seem to be getting ropier as the day goes on and they dry out; making some of them look silly on the short ones.

Great to see they are using more of pro tracer too, seems to be all over the course and not just set up at a few tees.

 

[tugglesf239]

I love the greens

Honestly i think it is great that the players are frightened stiff (according to Monty)

The person that wins this will have earned it and if that means they have to show some bottle on the dance floor then so be it.

The course just looks amazing and has entered my bucket list near the top.

What a wilderness. Like a frontier town in the old west (yes maybe i am being melodramatic, )

hmmm - not much of a show so far
