Rahmbo.
 
Someone shot a 127 in US Open local qualifying yesterday.

 
I've played that group of courses on the RTJ trail. They are tough. And the wind can make them really tough/long. But I can't imagine a low single digit handicap golfer putting up a score like that. In admittedly non-tournament conditions there I never shot above high 80's (and I'm a 7 handicap)

damn poulter. wow.

is there a second cut in this tournament? rahm got a mdf (made cut didnt finish). what is that?
 
I don't understand how Poulter landed in a bush and then was allowed to prepared the ground (like he was getting ready to plant a garden) in his drop zone.....all without a penalty.
Obviously he had a great shot, to the green, but why no penalty from the bush?

Yes if too many golfers make the Friday cut, they will have another smaller cut after Saturday's round, and all of those guys who don't make it to Sunday earn the same amount of money and get a "MDF" (Made the cut, did not finish) designation.

It was considered loose impediments they said.
 
They felt bad for him because he hits about one shank a round. So they let him clean up the mess around his drop site...

All 6 of my DK lineup made cut....but then lost 5 of them
To MDF. Rahm and Thomas were really surprisingly bad on sat.

He is so un-clutch except in the Ryder Cup. I don't really dislike him, but he acts and has been treated at times like some world class player, but other than the Ryder Cup he hasn't done a whole lot when compared to his level of fame. Chamblee was really giving him a hard time last night for not being more aggressive down the stretch given he was only a couple shots back when he tee'd off on 16.

Day with an 80 yesterday, John "JB" Holmes with an 84 yesterday, wow!!!
 
Yeah, that course always seems to magnify mistakes if you're not on your game, so not surprised at the high scores. Was rooting for Oosthuizen, but I was okay with Kim winning. As long as it wasn't Poulter. L&DD, you seem to forget that Poulter is the 2nd best golfer in the world.

He only had like 210 to 16 for his second shot and elected to lay up. Coming out of the rough, his lie might not have been very good. It looked to me like he hit 3 wood off the tee on 18 but maybe not. Odd down 2 needing birdie on a long hole if he did hit 3 wood.
