I played the north course a few years back.  LACC is one where caddies are required.  By the end, I could tell the caddy just wanted me to pick it up and get the fuck out.  It's a bitch of a course.

Warms my heart that miller’s 63 was bumped, twice

This was a curiously emotional watch for me. My Dad died at the end of 12/19. My boys and my Mom were over for dinner We’ve been watching all weekend. And the story resonated. Good for him

So fucking weird for the network change to be at 7 pm. 

It's fucking retarded but whatever. Do they show a bunch of tape delay stuff? Because otherwise the main broadcast is just "hey here's 7 holes from the last guys on the course".

Back 9 is brutal. Would not surprise me to see X and Rickie fall off and leave McIlroy and Clark in the final pairing tomorrow.

If that happens you may as well hand Rory the trophy. These two need to be at least 2 shots clear.

Was watching earlier and the guy interviewing Rory, who played the back 9 first, said to him “your shot a 36 on the back and then a 30 on the front- what did you do to get your round back on track?” And he was courteous but the answer was pretty much the front 9 is much easier.  

which that guy should be well aware of as it’s been talked about pretty much the entire two day of the tournament once the scores started getting posted.

You're forgetting about the Saturday Rory Collapse.

Followed by the Sunday Rory Backdoor Top 5 at a major.

I've said multiple times I think he needed to see someone else get 5. 

His game is as complete as it's been this week in a major since 2014. I promise you if they fuck around he's going to take this.

Christ this is like a redux of the Masters thread. They're showing every shot of Rickie and X on the featured groups stream on the US Open website (with minimal ads).

Fucking olds. 

Or if you want to watch Scottie then watch that featured group stream.

That’s all I’ve watched. 

Rory and Scottie groups specifically. Been great so far, all things considered. 
 

The only thing I’ve noticed/missed is the additional  spot for how far out they are on their remaining shots. Nice to look up and see it vice hoping an announcer will say.

God:

Alright Rory. The stage is set. You have your motivation. You have your game. The course suits you. The US Open is in front of you. I can't give you anything else. 

Rory:

What stands in my way?

God:

Midlife crisis Rickie Fowler. And he's playing like prime Tom Watson. 

Rory:

I didn’t think this course was a fit going in but it actually may take a lot of his decision making out of it, which is a positive. 

I saw a model that projected he'd be really good here.

Yeah that shit makes me nervous for him going into tomorrow. 

But he's looking great so far. God really would taunt me by having Rory lose yet another one to a guy that I like that doesn't have a major.

FIGJAM heckled at 2023 U.S. Open on birthday, misses cut  😂😂😂

Story by Josh Peter, USA TODAY 

LOS ANGELES — On Phil Mickelson’s 53rd birthday, the legendary golfer was loudly heckled for the second day in a row at the 2023 U.S. Open.

The heckler appeared to reference the reported $200 million Mickelson got to join the Saudi-backed LIV Golf league and leave the PGA Tour, according to two tournament volunteers with Mickelson’s group.

The outburst Friday came when Mickelson and his group were walking from the 14th green to the 15th tee box at Los Angeles Country Club, according to volunteer walking scorer Chris Watts and volunteer scoreboard toter Matthew Miller.

Mickelson, who shot a 4-over 74 and missed the cut at 3 over, did not stop to speak with reporters. Mickelson, who has finished runner-up six times at the U.S. Open, has long been a crowd favorite and has made no secret of his desire to win the only major he’s missing from his portfolio.

Padraig Harrington, who along with Keegan Bradley played in the group with Mickelson, said the incident lasted for 15 to 20 seconds and he thought the heckler was the same one from Thursday.

The man on Thursday wore a sombrero, according to published reports.

“Not today,’’ Harrington told reporters. “Just had a wig on today. … Definitely looked like the same guy.’’

On Thursday, according to published reports, the heckler stood up at the grandstand at the ninth green and blurted out something about “red lipstick and nine-inch heels” and a “Victoria’s Secret sponsorship.’’ The rant ended before security escorted him away.

On Friday, according to Watts, the fans countered the heckler by loudly wishing Mickelson “Happy Birthday.’’

It was a theme of the day, with about a dozen fans at the first tee box singing “Happy Birthday’’ before Mickelson started his second round, according to Miller.

Mickelson continued to acknowledged fans with a thumbs up, tip of the cap or an occasional grin.

I wasn't a huge fan of Ricky when he first came onto the scene, but he's become much more likable for me these days.  Maybe it's because I have to respect that he's grinding to get back or because I really want to bang his wife.  Anyway, if Scottie is out of it I wouldn't mind seeing Ricky win one.

Yeah, she's definitely hot...

Ricky’s wife is the hot pole vaulter chick who made the rounds on the intertrons a while back?

It's understandable why his game dropped off, isn't it?

Ricky was all hyped. A career avg player, at best 

Top 5 finishes in every major in 2014 and 4 Ryder Cup appearances would put him well above average.

There's a reason why he's always in the conversation for the "Best player to never win a major".  I guess Xander is in that conversation now.

meh, they dried it out 

hack move when you’re course is getting lit up 

It pissed like a motherfucker Wednesday night/Thursday morning. Plus marine layer and no wind. Not much the super can do with that. It was always supposed to be fast and dry. Just wasn't.

Here we go. Gonna be another great weekend. 
 

we shall see how dry they let the course get to try and freeze the scoring. 

I’d like a dry green, Mr. Quoc, a very dry green. A very dry, arrid, barren, desiccated, veritable dustbowl of a green. I want a green that could be declared a disaster area.  Make me such a green.
