need some more chatter for Thorbjorn Olesen and his routine ability to vault into OOTD conversations
Told you boys for the longest, as soon as the top LIV players show up to Augusta then Scheffler won't look so 'dominant'
Bryson was FRL in 2019 as well, I think – tied with BK.
Jason Days clothes are the worst. Looks like clown pants. The PGA thinks these are better than shorts? Smh
When Patrick Cantalay holed his second shot into the 17th for eagle… Do you think he got a big head?
Bryson will undoubtedly collapse
The "Big Stick" Dr D….Calls home to the master of the Great Bobby Jones…
Worlds 210th ranked golfer leads PGA T superstar by a stroke at Augusta National. Media darling 959th ranked golfer is in the mix at 1 under through 13 holes. OWGR are an on going joke played on golf fans and the players.
Whatever relevance the OWGR has to world golf is negligible.
The funny thing is Wyndham was all lined up to join LIV supposedly, they just wouldn't offer him the money he wanted. If they had, he'd be wearing a LIV hat alongside Bryson and touting the company lines!
I do think golf needs him, though; specifically the PGA. You need someone to be the jacka$$, the guy no one likes and everyone roots against. It creates drama. Bryson looked good, tremendously so; but I'm not sure it will last. This place has always confused him, and as it gets tougher, I wonder how he's going to hold up. I hope he does, because a duel between him and Scottie, with Niemann or someone else chasing them would be great. I'm still hoping Zalatoris bounces back and posts something great to contend.
Where can you get strokes gained data mid round 1?
Bryson needed to run away to LIV. I could tell him running away helped him mature as a player and a person. Given the 3rd hole is only 350 yards the old Bryson would have clearly driven the 3rd but he didnt. His -7 is impressive. Scottie's -6 could have easily been -2 or -3. He had to hit some good shots to escape on some certain. I think 12 or 13 he almost hit it in the water. Im shocked that Vegas almost has the trophy in his hands. Bryson did a great job but he is +550. They are saying its match play basically. Only way Scottie doesnt win is if Meredith goes into labor. I saw on live from they did the math out loud that Rick was trying to figure out. 62 players were able to finish. 27 are still on the course everybody is thru 10 holes at least. They will resume round 1 at 750AM. They will start round 2 at 8AM as scheluded. Sunset is 757pm. It will be close. They should be on track. It depends on the weather.
Great show guys, really informative and entertaining. As per every week, if Scheffler putts well, he wins. Rahm is definitely not on top form, has been this way for over 6 months. Could be big changes to the board tomorrow in the wind, Go Scottie
who do yall have for some of your top 20?
What happens if the end of day air horn goes off on someone’s backswing and they shank it? Reshoot next morning?
Hahaha pretty funny comment at 11:40 who does God love more Bryson or Scottie….correct answer Tyrrell
the LIV boys come out of the gates faster that's because of the 3 rounds they play
That “god off” comment was so asinine
If Bryson and Scottie end up tied for the lead after Sunday they will go to a pray off to decide the Masters Champion
I've always seen Joaquin Niemann as the dark haired version of Will Zalltoris and vice versa and they each weigh 127 lbs. There's so many similarities it trips me out. They both exploded onto the scene and moved up the world rankings at the same time and at a quick pace before injury and different tours separated the inverted twins, but in my world rankings list they both are in my top 10 (Neiman definitely is and if Zalatoris isn't it's ony because of injury). Someone was saying Neimann was a question mark going into this, which perhaps it may seem that way if you're only following the pga tour, but the guy has played 8 tournaments since November, 3 of them non LIV events and of those 8 events he's won 3 times, 3 top 5's, 2 top 10's and 1 bad outing where he finished 30th. It's impressive… he's playing peak golf and what Zalatoris has been able to do getting back into the mix as quickly as he has is insane as well. They're two of the best in the game right now. It's difficult to calibrate, but I wouldn't be surprised if Neiman's a top 5 golfer right now if there was a perfect calibration device.
Don’t mind the LIV players playing real golf but I still hate LIV golf. I wouldn’t watch it if was the only golf on TV
I don't know the details but there must have been insane wind or something going on for the golfers finishing up their round this morning, because several notable golfers shot horrendous scores. Harmon shot a 47 on the back 9 and Spieth did slightly better. Did Harmon accidentally bring his nerf clubs or something?
