How did he introduce Gerry Watson?

Dustin Johnson currently 6 under for the round with a putt to go 7 under.

..... but he missed.

And then he found the greenside bunker on the Par 5 17th & walked away with a par. So he blew his chance of a 62.

Simple solution to all that- call back Ivor Robson.

Spieth showing his class. Looks like he'll lead from go to whoa.

Pity about Jason Day's 76 in the wind and rain of Day 2. He shot 65 overnight to be Even.

Ooohh Haotong Li! Superb round to finish off and a nice clubhouse target. That, while Spieth is f*cking up the start.

Spieth choking again.

I knew I should have closed out my bet on him overnight.

Posted just before he gained 5 shots in 4 holes following his near disaster at the 13th?

Seems so. I went to bed just after his tee shot on 14.

Jordan Smith wins the European Open and should now have sealed the Henry Cotton award for best rookie. Has had a seriously impressive start.

Meanwhile, Aaron Rai won his ET card with 3 challenge tour wins. Obviously one to look forward to.

Rory McIlroy and his Caddie have parted company.

Might have to watch the European tour this week to hear what Jay Townsend has to say about it. He was a critic of that pairing ages ago.

2 time NBA MVP - Steph Curry - is making his pro golf debut at the weekend playing in a Web.com Tour event.

by tricycle Thu Aug 03, 2017 12:24 pm

Stupid attention whores. I'd like to see Golden state sign Matt Fitzpatrick for the shits and giggles. Golf is so stupid so often.

by JGK Sat Aug 05, 2017 12:24 pm

Curry shot 74-74. He missed the cut but beat a few seasoned pros including Aussie (Tozzie actually) Matt Goggin. He also beat Colt McNealy who I think is the world No 2 or 3 amateur.

"McNealy"
Who himself can get web.com invites if/when he takes over at Sun Microsystems.

Crazy round by Scott Hend puts him one off the lead at the Bridgestone. Favourite Aussie player along with Fraser. Day is a slow c*nt, and Adam Scott looks too good in addition to his talent. So screw him.

by JGK Sun Aug 06, 2017 7:56 pm

Sage re Scott. Anyone who ditches Ana Ivanovic is dead to me.

USPGA moved to may from 2019. Mehsville major, but it means that the BMW PGA moves to September and the player's to March.

Makes the transition between summer and winter sports a bit less smooth, though.

by JGK Wed Aug 09, 2017 2:28 pm

Yeah I saw that - the main reason seems to be so they can move the year end $10m thingy earlier so it doesn't compete with the start of the NFL season.

Any tips for the PGA trike?
