Geezus Westwood

[dcar00 14601]

another short iron from Westwood.  

[Dewey 3314]

Euro choke, not the Ryder cup

[heso 2821]

Damn, thought that was going to take one more hop into the bunker 

[dcar00 14601]

the wind just fucks with these guys so much.

[hookem48 4717]

love how the bunkers go right into the water on 17, always that that was cool for some reason

Is Westwood's wife caddying? If so,

[Dewey 3314]

All the greens are dry as fuck

[dcar00 14601]

holy shit he is getting relief.   that is bullshit.

[Jive Turkey 12722]

Westwood should have said something.

[Dewey 3314]

Bryson and the rules official, take 900

Yeah... don't like that decision by Rules Official... 

[dcar00 14601]

that rules official is a pussy.  

[bigup2dahorns 3343]

The rules official was right there and allowed it. And then Bryson putts the ball way out to the right, so the sprinkler heads were not in his line at all. That’s whacky.

[Jive Turkey 12722]

come on, Lee.

[Longhornstampede 3192]

I hope the Euros call out every bit of bullshit that american players and officials won't on BCD during the Ryder cup.

[ztejas 43741]

Bryson is going to make this finish as excruciating as possible. For himself, Westwood, rules officials, viewers...

Thats what I was thinking the entire time. Like how is it even benefitting him that much?

I hope that rules official just cost himself that job next year

[bigup2dahorns 3343]

Oh I understand the benefit to Bryson. He got to drop closer to the green (not to the hole obviously) which allowed him to putt the ball easier and it wouldn’t have to travel as far over the fringe.

Pros do that shit all of the time. “This lie sucks but I need relief because that grandstand down the way could interfere with the 100 yard sweeping hook that I might or might not hit”

[Longhornstampede 3192]

Who's the bigger cheat? BCD or Reed. It's all in their method of doing it

[dcar00 14601]

by moving it out to the right, the putt is a bit straighter, he also gets to line up and place the ball when it doesn't stay on the fringe.  there also seemed to be a depression a bit more in his original line.

it was definitely an advantage.  he probably 2 putts either way but I would like the rules official to say "sorry dude there is nothing in your line or stance, play it"

[Longhornstampede 3192]

Spieth is done winning....anything.

Of course the last time I said this he promptly won the British within a month 🤞

i think Reed straight up cheats more than Bryson.  however, Bryson looks to bend the rules as much as anyone.  what he did wasn't technically cheating.  the rules official allowed it.  but the fact that he asked to move his ball shows that he's pretty unethical.  my two cents.

as said up thread, they all do that stuff.  its up to the rules official to say sorry nope.

Yeah. It isn't cheating. It's just not really in the spirit of the game. Taking the rule book down to the fine print is never thay gratifying.

yep

[hookem48 4717]

Lee gave it away on that choke 2nd shot on 16

[dcar00 14601]

westwood just got fucked.  maybe it will make him take an extra club

[Jive Turkey 12722]

Westwood gets screwed.

[hookem48 4717]

with all the rules changes they've made I'm surprised  getting relief from a divot isn't one of them.

3-Way Tie for 4th for Jordan -- it's a shame he couldn't make a couple more putts today.

Jordan making progress -- already in 2021

• Top 4 Waste Management Phoenix
• Top 3 AT&T Pebble Beach
• Top 15 Genesis Invitational -- Riveria
• Top 4 Arnold Palmer Invitational

I’ve always thought they should.

[hookem48 4717]

so what was Jordan's reasoning for never playing here before?

[hookem48 4717]

kudos to Westwood's girlfriend, she doesn't look that young and totes that bag like a champ

[hookem48 4717]

well

[LTtxfan 49404]

How many folks want Bryson to miss 😋

[hookem48 4717]

lol

[hookem48 4717]

the guy was fucking nails today, got to give it to him

[bigup2dahorns 3343]

That finished way late and if it went to a playoff they would be in the dark soon

[LTtxfan 49404]

Bryson with all of his Sponsors reminds me of NASCAR...

[bigup2dahorns 3343]

DraftKings is really on brand as a sponsor for Bryson

[hookem48 4717]

absolutely no doubt Bryson's strength out of the rough won him the tourney

[tx 3 putt 77921]

great win for bryson, on to the TPC. i always liked the tpc.

Found this quote: 

"Jordan Spieth’s schedule never had room for the PGA Tour star to squeeze in the Arnold Palmer Invitational."

I think with his commitments to play AT&T events and his better successes in California and Texas, Jordan likes to take a break during the Florida swing of the PGA Tour.

Gotta take some time off prior to "The Masters" plus Jordan hasn't played as well in Florida. 

(he has really struggled at the "THE PLAYERS Championship")
