Exactly. What a dipshit.

Should have told him to mark it and come back tomorrow or next week or whenever he feels up to putting it.

It don't make a shit, he's fucked in the head anyway.

oh look the next guy marks it and putts within 20 seconds.

all that bullshit was to fuck with Bhatia...

I mean... why? It doesn't matter what Akshay does.

Does Lee not like him?

huh? Bhatia is the leader. making him wait a ton of time to hit his next shot might cause bad shot.

Yeah my bad LOL. I keep thinking it's Sunday today for some reason. All the scores being so low doesn't help.

I thought they made a rule that you don't get penalized for hitting a ball that is oscillating due to the wind.

Yeah but I think they worry about it coming back and hitting their putter.

maybe, the key is not to ground the putter completely.

I liked Min Woo until that shit went down. Hit the ball fuckface!

Rahm and Bryson dueling on FOX right now on LIV.

The music is really fucking annoying. I can't imagine watching multiple days of this or multiple tournaments.

(it appears they do turn the music off down the stretch)

Fucking Anthony Kim bests both of them to win it. Insane. Had forgotten his story. Finished 3rd at The Masters once upon a time.

In June 2012, Kim had surgery after injuring the Achilles tendon in his left leg and was expected to miss 9 to 12 months.^[11] Kim was eligible for the 2013 season on a Major Medical Exemption, but has failed to play a single tournament since.^[12][13]

In April 2014, Golf Channel reported that Kim no longer plays golf, even on a recreational level.^[14] As of 2014, he was reported to have had an insurance policy that would pay him $10-20 million in the case of a career-ending injury.^[12] In 2016, Kim played in a number of charity events, but said he was not ready to play professionally again. He also cited ongoing physical therapy and numerous surgeries as the reasons for delaying his return.^[15]

In April 2019, during an encounter with a fan in West Hollywood, California, Kim referred to his golf game as "non-existent".^[16] On January 1, 2021, Adam Schriber, Kim's longtime coach, posted a photo of the two in front of the Dallas skyline with the caption "2021 is going to be special".^[17]

In February 2024, it was announced that Kim would return to professional golf and join the LIV Golf League. He was named as a "wildcard".^[18]

Kim played his first competitive tournament since 2012 at LIV Golf Jeddah in March 2024. He placed last at 16-over-par 226, which was 33 shots behind the winner Joaquín Niemann.^[19] Kim finished 56th out of 57 players in the 2024 LIV Golf League seasonal rankings.^[20] He retained his wildcard status for the 2025 LIV Golf League season, where he finished 55th in the rankings, outside the top-48 cutoff and was relegated.^[21][22] In 23 tournaments during his first two seasons on LIV Golf, his best finish was a tie for 25th at LIV Golf Dallas in 2025.^[23]

In November 2025, Kim shot a bogey-free, 7-under 64 at the PIF Saudi International. This was his lowest round since shooting 64 at the 2011 Barclays Singapore Open.^[24] He finished the Saudi International in a tie for fifth, which was his first top-10 finish in 14 years.^[25] Kim finished third in the LIV Golf Promotions event in January 2026, which earned him a spot in the 2026 LIV Golf League season.^[26][23]

In 2025, Kim announced that he had been sober for two years. He had previously struggled with drug and alcohol abuse and said he had contemplated suicide "for almost two decades even when playing the PGA Tour".^[29] Kim said that when he entered rehabilitation his "body was shutting down".^[30] He stated: "In rehab I found faith, self love and respect and purpose."^[31] He credited his wife and daughter for inspiring him to overcome addiction.^[27]

Type of shit that pretty much only happens in golf. I get it's LIV but winning in a final group with Rahm and Bryson after everything he's been through is completely wild. Very cool sports story.

Take a drink every time Nantz reminds us he lives on Pebble and you’ll be drunk by the back 9.

In fairness I would bore everyone to death with that too!

I thought it was supposed to play really hard today. Rory and Henley are 4 under and Scottie is -3.

Scottie -4 now too and climbing the leaderboard quickly. Dude just isn’t happy with a top 20.

Edited February 15Feb 15 by 4th&Five

Eagle for Scottie. He’s gonna win this thing.

-7 through 7

crazy. I thought about betting scottie last night in the prediction markets for 1 cent, didnt do it. Note to self, no matter the scenario, if you ever see scheffler at 99-1 in a golf tourny, you take it.

Scottie back to -18.

We'll see if he can post something and let the other guys come in.

Bhatia choking another tourney away. Tough to watch. Would like to see him break through and win a big one.

Meanwhile Scottie laying waste to this setup.

Scottie may have ran out of holes.

Ho

Lee

Fuk

Indeed, he may have run out of holes. But there will be other tournaments.

63, is that any good?

Now the weather needs to really kick it up

A fucking 3 bogey 63 lmao. And Rory dropped a 64. Why is it so hard for these other guys? Aren't they professionals?

Not sure -20 holds up though.

3 eagles in the round. 1st time he’s done that.

I was sure Nantz was going to jinx him by going on about it before he'd even stepped up to the putt.

7 under today, on the par 5s

I wish that the announcers had mentioned that.

Bridgeman can't get off the fucking course.

Morikawa gets his first win in over 2 years.

If you bet Scottie Scheffler to place Top 10 for all of his last 18 starts in a row, assuming he was -200 (66.67% chance) pre-tournament every time, starting with $10 and went all in after every bet…

You’d have $14,778.92 after today

• 12:21 AM · Feb 16, 2026

Lol. He ain't close to -200 every time - especially at the shitty events.

Vegas isn't handing money out for Scottie finishing in the top 10. He's -400 this week at the Genesis which is a signature event/really strong field.

Of course you'd be up - not 15 grand up though.

I’m going with 3 Putt on this one.

Not the usual weather for the Genesis.

Nice start from Rory.

Think this is one of the only big places he hasn't won at? (that they play every year)

Edited February 20Feb 20 by ztejas

Round 1 will resume at 9am (7am local, cali) tomorrow. Dunno if Golf channel will cover from the start, or if ESPN will have it for a while.

Scottie +5 through 10. Yikes. Thursday is becoming an issue.

Now +3 thru 9, projected cut +2. He'll squeak in, and then hit the gas.

Scottie was +1 a bit ago before I flipped it to SD.

There was a really good price for Rory beating Scottie this week and I almost pulled the trigger.

Just really hard to ever bet against that motherfucker.

Spieth is playing pretty well again.

Rory with a ton of clutch pars on the back 9. Having a nice round.

Who the fuck is this Penge guy?

Euro Tour guy who came on strong last year after never doing much (Won Player of the Year).

Question for those who watched the last two days; WTF is wrong with Scottie? Is he getting bored or fighting something?

Wasn't great off the tee day 1 and that made it hard to score. Misses were better yesterday and scored better. Even better off the tee today.

The riv is fucking hard. Greens are playing super soft due to the rain but that is making finding the fairway off the tee a premium because the rough is thick and wiry.
