2022-23 PGA Tour season

Keegan bleeding all over the finish line.

That Cantlay bog helps though.

Also - they just said Scottie has 18 straight top 12s?

Only person that can stop him now is himself. 

He’s trying

[ztejas 43,482]

Fortunately he's running out of holes.

Yeah you're right...

but Keegan sure trying to say "Hold My Beer"  😋

[mdmost 43,004]

So does he have to hit around the patron's fold up chair?

Kinda wish he was forced to.

Ryder Cup competition heating up 🔥🔥🔥

"US team for golf's Ryder Cup could be loaded, and some stars could be left out"

https://www.newsday.com/sports/golf/column-us-ryder-cup-team-could-be-loaded-and-some-stars-could-be-squeezed-out-of-going-to-rome-szel53ge

 

The leading six in the Ryder Cup standings going into the Rocket Mortgage Classic are: Scottie Scheffler, Clark, Koepka, Xander Schauffele, Patrick Cantlay and Homa.

Next in line are Bradley, Spieth, Young, Burns, Thomas and Morikawa.  

Still to be determined? Plenty.  The resurgent Rickie Fowler and Tony Finau, who has played on the last four U.S. teams and has two wins this season, are part of the conversation.

Dustin Johnson is probably too far back that even a claret jug won't allow him to qualify, but he will be hard to ignore if he were to win the final major of the year.

Wait Rahm has 4 fucking wins already? Jesus.

[Wally Fairway 5,566]

Did Rickie get a new swing coach, psychologist, start taking the PEDish attention/focus meds? I mean in the last month or two (excluding the PGA)  he has become a birdie machine.

[thunderlounge 7,869]

I don’t think it was a new coach, but maybe. They mentioned it last week and he had said something about finding a little tick or something that made a big difference in something. 

[4th&Five 41,560]

He went back to Butch. 

[thunderlounge 7,869]

JT may need to do that too, else Bones is gonna go back to TV. 😂

I love JT but dude has suuuucked this season. 

[ztejas 43,482]

Watching the match. Didn't think it needed a thread. 

Klay is not good.

Mahomes can play.

[thunderlounge 7,869]

Well shit. Forgot that was tonight. I’ll try to find a replay. 

[LTtxfan 49,278]

Rickie is still on a heater... 🔥🔥🔥

 

 

[ztejas 43,482]

The Rickiessance continues. 

Part of what makes the Tour great is that you can be a big name, drop off the face of the earth for years, and then come back and start winning again. Granted Rickie hasn't bagged one yet this season - but Keegan has a couple. 

[LTtxfan 49,278]

Rickie continues on his heater... 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

 

[ztejas 43,482]

Fun Sunday leaderboard for a tourney with a weak field. 

[ConferenceRoom 6,144]

They royally fucked up the handling of this. 

[BearSchlong 8,099]

Rickie!!! What a clutch win. Really happy for that guy. Those approaches on 18 x 2 were nails.

Yeah wtf was that? Leaders teed at like 10 am and then it wasn't on TV. Were there weather issues?

Huge win for Rickie.

[Longhornstampede 3,184]

I just caught the playoff on TV and am thoroughly confused as to why it said "recorded earlier" on my screen. Wtf? Did they tee off at 5am?

[LTtxfan 49,278]

[heso 2,813]

They teed off super early to beat the rain. Then they showed the broadcast at the time it would have been on if they teed off normally.

An 'untidy bogey'

Right. This is Scotland 

[ztejas 43,482]

Steph just hit a hole in one from 152 at the Tahoe celeb tourney.

[msucolt45 4,063]

Proud of Bob MacIntyre’s efforts on his home turf today, in Scotland, but Rory had an amazing finish to beat him by one. Bob went to my alma mater - McNeese (Lake Charles, LA).

It’s amazing how these Europeans find a small home in the states for college golf. I remember when I was in HS, that Colin Montgomery played college golf at Houston Baptist of all places.

Hook’em!!!

[ztejas 43,482]

Unreal comeback on the back 9 by Rory. Wins #24 which ties him with Player and DJ. No one younger than Phil has 25.

Rory also has now won the US, British, Canadian, Scottish and Irish opens. I'm guessing no one else has done that. 

Also - Scottie with another ho-hum tie for 3rd at a big event. He's decent.

Edited July 16, 2023 by ztejas

[ztejas 43,482]

So - yeah - he's the first guy to have won the Irish, Scottish and British. He's also won the Aussie and Hong Kong opens (for whatever those are worth).

If there's an open championship on Mars the Martians better watch out.

Rory McIlroy had a hilarious response to Scottish Open fan who won a nice bet on him

So who is better:  DJ or Rory  🤔

[msucolt45 4,063]

IMO - Rory has a better “world wide or international” career.

Hook’em!!!

[thunderlounge 7,869]

Rory > DJ

 

[ztejas 43,482]

Rory has had a much better career than DJ. Koepka is the only guy of this "generation" who has an argument over him with the 5 majors now. Granted Rory has 3 legs of the slam vs. 2 plus a players plus 3 tour championships (and one of those he ran down Koepka to win playing in the final pairing with him) plus 4 strokes titles plus 15 more wins on tour. I don't think an extra PGA championship outweighs all of that but some people rank guys strictly on major wins.

I'd put DJ 4th behind Spieth.

My daughter shared a tweet of him. She absolutely hates golf.

Pretty good golf today. I avoided the thread because the clock is a goddamn mess with the delay. But, that's a good one today for Rory.

[crash_davis 23,114]

2 cool vids.

Someone screaming during Fish's downswing on 18 which led to his shank. This person should be shot for being an asshole to mankind.

 

Rory's approach on 18. From this viewpoint, you can see how incredible that shot was.

 

[Wally Fairway 5,566]

Crazy week on tour - both the Open Championship and the opposite event the Barracuda Championship won by lefties; I wonder if you could get odds on that parlay in Vegas.

[Pam Cummings 9,645]

The Barracuda was a really exciting ending. Bhatia with birdies on 16 and 18 to force a playoff. Rodgers shot on the first playoff hole found a divot and he ended up making bogey. That kinda sucked.

LIV still looking for golfers? He would fit in perfectly on Reed's 4Aces team.

Cross-post... Story about having to check the "Claret Jug" is worth the listen... 😂
