Brad Faxon said this morning that he thought Phil's putting the moving ball was similar to his Ryder Cup criticism of Tom Watson. Basically a swipe at the USGA for carnival golf at #13. Ken Brown just showed what would've happened at #13 had Phil let the putt roll down behind the bunker.
I'm not a USGA fan, so what Phil did was no big deal for me.
What do you know. Stop the presses. We agree on something.

Phil hit that putt too hard. His fault, not the USGA.
Stenson, Rose and Koepka all played in the afternoon yesterday and each shot a few over par. The course was tough, but NOT "gone, lost" or unplayable. Man up
Scores are low today, I expect winner will be at level par or better.
Apparently it's a bit brisk out there for Kiradech!
I think someone will set a tournament low round record if the wind doesn’t go nuts. Reed knocked it close and stopped it on one and two. (edit - and three).
Fleetwood, an inch or two away...
What a great round.
And Reed has a real chance at going super low,-5 thru 8!
Until I just posted this.....he's screwed!
I'm not really watching much. What's the difference in the 1st 3 days and today? Cry baby bullshit paid off?
LBlack14 - the members of Shinnecock Hills passed the hat around the card room last night and ponied up for some water to be poured on the greens.
Never seen a course play at such extremes of tough to easy one round to the next. Fleetwood's scores say it all: 75, 66, 78, 63.
Have they said what the greens have stimped at?
Fleetwood is in the clubhouse sticking pins in Koepka, Johnson and Reed Voodoo dolls.
LBlack14 - I have not and I've tried to listen for a number.
I do know they have been double cutting and rolling the greens until this morning. Once over with each for today's round.

McIroy asked Davis after Thursdays round and he told him they were running a little under 12.
Rooting here for Tommy
A dagger by Koepka,Tommy can go home now!
The Indians of Shinnecock might think elsewise,
Perhaps ...
