Rahm withdrawing with an illness.

Rahm withdrawing with an illness.

Acute scorecarditis.

Acute scorecarditis.

Can you call it that if he withdrew before he ever started his round and he was 1-under for the tournament? Seems legit on the surface to me.

 

[Wakeforest22890]

He had the fourth best odds to win the tournament entering today haha

 

[Liquid Karma]

Ah, I had misread that he WD mid round.

Azinger is in heaven watching these guys struggle. Just giddy about every shot that doesn't work out. When McIlroy putted it off the green I thought he was going to start running around the broadcast booth riding the bull like Happy Gilmore.

I seriously can't believe there are people out there that think he's a good announcer that should continue being the voice of NBC golf. He's just miserable to listen to.

Chad Ramey was leading by two shots on the 17th tee.

Then this:
Shot 1
152 yds to water, 20 ft 6 in. to hole
Shot 2
Penalty
Drop in tee box, 89 yds to hole
Shot 3
98 yds to water, 34 ft 2 in. to hole
Shot 4
Penalty
Drop in tee box, 88 yds to hole
Shot 5
82 yds to green, 19 ft 5 in. to hole
Shot 6
Putt 22 ft 3 in., 2 ft 8in. to hole
Shot 7
in the hole

He went from 14-1 to 75-1 to win in two swings

I have a whole new appreciation and affinity for Rory after watching Full Swing.

Keith Mitchell slicing the hell out of a ball into the water right before the weather horn goes off is just hilarious content.

Scottie Scheffler looks like a caricature of a professional golfer I love it.

 

[DCDeac]

Scheffler holes out and Azinger immediately starts talking about how it's going to be a negative because it's too emotional then says he mishit it and just got lucky.

Man he sucks.

Here comes Cam Young

 

[BacktoBack]

Ok. I jinxed Cam. Two bogies slows a very hot round.

Cam ignored my "Go Deacs" today but I don't blame him because it was right after he finished and he did not have a good day...

That happened to me at The Masters last year with Webb. I was up against the rope too on 16 tee and he was hardly a yard from me. Plus it was a practice round. My son abused me for it.

 

[Biff Tannen]

Yeah, I followed him on #10 at East Lake last fall with no one else around. He saw my WF hat and just kept on walking. I think he's just one of those guys who just prefers to concentrate on the course.

Golf governing bodies to announce plan to roll back golf ball for elite competition

According to sources, the USGA and R&A's plan to limit distance would be through the testing of golf balls by high swing speeds, would only apply to top players

[Liquid Karma]

Shocked they are finally doing it. Must be some buy in from the ball manufacturers.

 

[Pilchard]

Nicklaus has advocated for this for years
