Tinker

its a lacking aspect on tour. Events with course like these separate the wheat from the chaff and are truly a test that rewards the best of the week.

last week's course was a joke and should never be allowed to be used in an event of that importance. Taking Nothing away from DJ, he had his A+ game and would likely have prevailed no matter the venue.

that all said, tough courses like this week and a US Open set up are probably too punishing week in and week out. Playoffs and majors need to be hard, other events can be easier.

i do really wish they would provide more punishment for wayward tee shots week in week out. Increase the rough a bit and furrow the sand traps as bunkers are almost an advantage to the rough and dont penalize the player for an errant shot

    Tinker It's a good one, for sure. No tricked up anything anywhere. No complaints from anyone. The winner may well be decided on the final putt Sunday.

    There will be a big weather change for them on the weekend.

      If the greens soften due to rain, all bets are off. Firm, fast greens and a bit of wind were the factors.

        Eguller There was rain heading that way, but I think it missed. Temps are to drop considerably, along with humidity. Should be a perfect weekend for the finish.

          Now you've got me interested....I'll have to watch this afternoon!!

          DonM We got around 0/10ths. πŸ˜‚ North and South/Southwest of us got plenty. I like brown grass; when the wind blows it seems to shorten itself.

          Funny...last few times I've played, and it hasn't rained for quite some time now, I was getting mud balls in the fws, at 3 different courses. Kinda pissed me off as I do like the bouncers/rollers this time of year.

          sdandrea1 They should be playing Rex golf...do not try to hit those greens. They've been like concrete with balls bouncing over them.

          We got 2 hours of gully washer downpours last night and now steady rain camped over us. Thank you Laura!

          Spuzz had a good round going......did he not have any fairway to drop in ?

            ode did he not have any fairway to drop in ?

            I don't think he made the fairway.

            Yeah it’s super fun watching unmakeable 10 foot putts. πŸ₯±

            DonM No one wants to watch us play either.

            I don't even want to watch me play......

            Thought I just heard Dustin Johnson whisper after birdie on #1 " You guys wanna play for money ? " 🀣

            615 yds. - Driver/iron = eagle putt. OKKKKK....
