He's playing too fast.

Awful.

Clark keeps hitting these terrible shots. One of these will kill him.

Welp, not that one by the bunker

Azinger is such a clown.

Fowler great shot out of the sand then misses the put

He dun.

Rickie don't lose that number....

That's embedded? Just looks like a shit lie to me.

What a break for Rory

I clearly need to call an embedded ball out there whenever I end up in some bad fescue.

Scottie almost had a beautiful one there.

Gets the bogey he deserved at least because he can't putt whatsoever on a major Sunday.

I'd feel worse for Rickie Fowler if he wasn't married to Allison Stokke.

I didnt know that. (not sarcastic)

Damn.

Goddamn

Yeah, he is doing just fine. You literally can't have it all Rick

Aside from the one shorty he's missed on eight, he's had excellent pace on his putts. Sometimes, you just burn edges.

Clark has had two all-time up and downs that have him in control of the tournament.

fowler cant get a break

He's gonna be lucky to make bogey from there.

And that is a massive mistake by Clark. He's going to have to pitch out.

Rory has the lefts now.

what a shot clark

some of these putts.....oh my

That looked good from a foot away.

It's hard to close a US Open.

Here we go.

If Rory pars 18, I'd say he's even money to make a playoff.

Clark looks like he's getting really steep in his transition, which is probably why he's pulling his irons.

One more par to win it.

man they curve near the hole

That was a 30 handicap slice and he got away with it.

Resembled some of my drives for sure. Won't matter at all with one more good iron shot.

He used alllll of the fairway

Good call

Yeah, that was pretty awful. I thought for sure he'd miss the fairway.

That shot Clark hit on 18 is the same kind of massive cut Mickelson hit at Winged Foot, but the fairway is so wide it didn't matter.

Helps when the fairways are 50 yards wide.

Not an easy 2 putt with what's on the line.

hanging on that Clarks mom story.....

Looked easy enough lol

Great putt. And Rory officially finds a way to lose another major where he was the clear best player on the week.

What a clutch putt. Dude hit some awesome shots around the green to close it out.

I've seen DJ 3-putt 12 footers with this title on the line on the 18th. It's never easy.

Was that Rob Lowe?

The course was difficult after Day 1.

I don't think the top three players broke par in today's round.

It must be awesome to be some random dude and win the us open

He's somehow apparently not 40 years old.

Oldest looking 26 year old I've ever seen tbh

Its offensive to me that caddies get to read putts for players. Look at Wyndham Clarks caddie. He does everything. Lines him up, tells him the speed. Then walks away before Clark hits. The caddy even brings out a wedge with his hand as a mock putter and lines up the putt like hes the player.

Givem carts. Ban caddies. Let em wear shorts. Lets speed this shit up. I dont think a caddy wouod matter for me much at courses I play alot except around the greens. But it would be a huge advantage for putting for me. Like 20% of the time I dont even know which way a putt will break if its over a certain length. Im often sooo wrong on lines and speeds of putts in general. I just ****in guess

Yup! Clark was tough as nails around the green. Clutch! He deserved to win, he earned it.

Not with the putter in his hands. He doesn't read the breaks as well as a lot of tour pros. Makes me wonder how hard he works on his game. Many of his puts that I have seen this year a good amount he just totally misreads the line. Not push or pulls just misreads.

Maybe needs Wyndam Clarks caddy...

His putting has always been the weakness in his game but I find it gets even worse in the big ones. That’s now two Sundays in a row as a favorite in a major he’s played nearly flawless tee to green only to be let down completely by that club.

So you don’t want caddies reading greens anymore? Only giving yardages.

I dont want ANY caddies.

Playing golf with a caddie is the BEST. :clap:

You can walk and relax and not be either waiting every shot in your golf cart and get great exercise. It makes me loose and hit better shots.

It is but I don’t like it is because the sole reason I am not a scratch golfer is because I'm a horrible putter for my handicap. I putt like a 13 handy and hit like a +1. So Im a 3. If I had a caddy to tell me what line and speed it would help shitheads like me immensely and I just don't think it's fair.

I've never played with a caddie. Some of the best golf I played was when I rented the cart with a buddy but I walked while he drove. He didn't mind so it worked out great. Together we played great.

I've played golf with a caddie twice in my lifetime. Great experience.
Of course all of their suggestions, after seeing my golf game were like "You might try to hit your shot here" Or you might want to hit your shot here

Not, hit your shot here......

Caddie Golf is great. A good caddie goes to the range with you and watches you hit the ball. I remember playing in Ireland and I pull out my driver on the 380 yard Par 4 1st hole. My Caddie says, "put the big stick back in the bag. Your full fade won't look good on this hole". He pulls out my 4 iron and tells me to give it a full swing. Sure enough, 210 middle of the fairway, 7 iron into the downhill green and 2 putts for par. He had my full attention from there :)

Agreed. I went to line up a putt once and the caddie was shaking his head..:shake:

Tells me you want to put about 6 ft further right and I was like :hmmm: Wasn't reading that break at all.

Sure enough, caddie was on the money. I didn't make the putt , but I didn't look like a compete idiot..on that shot anyway...

That's golf.

It’s been golf for a decade for Rory now, that’s for sure. At some point you have to actually win and not just hit nice drives and flush iron shots when it doesn’t matter.

"Full fade" :LOL:

Sure.

So winning doesn't matter. My guess is that Rory himself doesn't think that way.

It's the only thing

I'd guess he realizes that he just needs to continue to put himself in that position and he'll win a few more.

Or maybe he won't, I dunno, it's a hard game.

How else are you to get all of the Escalades?

Making a putt on the back 9 of a major for the first time in a decade when you're in contention might aid in that goal.

Tom Watson’s open letter to Monahan

Tom pulled no punches. Good on him.

Golf fans have easily become the most obnoxious, self centered, attention seeking douchebags on the face of the Earth.

Tik Tok, Instagram and the social media culture has a bunch of them SCREAMING out some stupid phrase or word so they can tell all their loser friends, " HEY DID YOU HEAR MY VOICE ON TV??? THAT WAS ME YELLING 'BOOGIE LITTLE BALL' on the 14th hole."

Get a life you annoying worthless coprolites.

Mashed potatoes!

Rory always has at least one massive brain fart in these majors. Yesterday it was shortsiding himself in the bunker from 135 out on 14. That was just a backbreaker.

I told my wife that even I would have realized that was the one place I couldn’t hit it.

That was a massive mistake for someone of his ability, especially considering how he was hitting the ball all day.

I just think it's is in his head at this point and has been for several years now at majors. The longer the streak goes of not winning one, the more difficult it will be to overcome too.

No one needs to hear that crap at a golf match. Wonder what the players think

Only in golf do we get so offended when fans yell something silly.

Rutabaga!

That was one of the main things I noticed in the Full Swing series and hadn’t realized it had gotten like that. People have always yelled dumb shit after the shot but now there is more heckling in general.

If a person is cringe enough to be a "GET IN THE HOLE!!" guy, hearing their voice while watching the DVR when they got home that night was likely going to be as good as it ever gets for them. It will probably be on their headstone along with dates of birth and death.

Here lies Jimmy Wilson
If you didn't know him, you were probably familiar with his work.
He was the voice you heard yelling GET IN THE HOLE after Adam Hadwin's drive on the 6th tee in the Zurich Classic on Thursday on April 20, 2023
RIP

Tonight if you are interested....
