PGA Championship Contest
PA-PLAYA he looks like he's on roids....like if Lou Ferrigno went into golf he'd look like XS.
Great win.....great championship. Hovland and Deshambeau pushing Xander and Deshambeau hitting that putt on 18 to make Xander birdie for the win was some high drama. Power lip IN. I dunno what others think but the layup on 18 was a good shot.....was gonna say "gutsy" but there was not much risk. Def got his attention and he pulled it off flawlessly.
DonM same here ....I still question if he will win one in tough conditions, i.e. firm baked out conditions, but he pulled this one off. Seriously delivered with a hiccup and some tough circumstances down the stretch with his last two drives being a bit unlucky. That was a fun final round to watch!
I want to thank the consolation prize winner DATKO for donating his prize of a dozen balls
to a budding young golfer in my area. Thanks for stepping up and the kid will be giddy.
Now......off to the US Open soon.
Sneakylong “You can’t do that in Luhville!”
Hell, in Texas, if there is an accident on the freeway, drivers just start peeling off the right side and down to the frontage road. We did it once with our pickup towing a fifth wheel camping trailer. It looked like a jailbreak.
I live 40 miles from Valhalla and there is still a lot of local news coverage of the Scotty incident. The mayor is calling for a full investigation to make sure proper police procedures were followed. There is also a lot of press saying many of the upper ranks in the LMPD think the case might have been "over charged" and suggesting reducing or dismissing the charge. Supposedly there is a witness who said he saw the officer running after Scotty's car and tripped. Supposedly there is a traffic cam video just discovered. Apparently there is a meeting today to discuss the charges.

I read something somewhere that the cop was a traffic fatality investigator. Scottie said he got mixed signals from the cops. One he thought was waving him around and the other (traffic fatality cop) holding him up.
I said from the get go that this was an over reaction / overcharge. This will never go to trial and ultimately will get dismissed. But, we shall see. Bad look for Louisville cops.
More surprising was apparently none of the cops watch golf. They asked who they arrested?
Sneakylong Bad look for Louisville cops.
If this is it for you, then you have not been paying attention to any national news the past 3-4 years!!
Scottie is lucky the cop fell down, otherwise, he might have been shot several times. And not much done about it.

The yahoo cop Gillis didn’t turn on his body camera. He is in violation of Louisville police policy. Gillis will receive corrective action. The mayor and chief sounded sympathetic to Scheffler and not the gung ho cop.
Again, will be shocked if this doesn’t get tossed. Yeah, attaching yourself to a vehicle entering Valhalla at less than 5 mph with a clearly marked PGA authorized car is not the smartest move.
Any injuries Gillis received are a result of a dumbass decision he made. If Scheffler were a wanted serial killer Gillis would be a hero. However, arresting the number one golfer in the world for not stopping entering Valhalla because of your ego driven authority, is classified as (again) dumbass.
No gold shield badge for you!!!
sdandrea1 I need to stay off the Internet and news channels. I'm thinking Gunsmoke and Cheyenne reruns.......
Some friends had his elderly mother staying with them and she sat in her room most of the day watching Andy Griffith reruns with the sound turned up. They both said they had the whistling theme intro song burned into their brains.
