OT - golf - Spieth or Kuch?

I like them both.  Jordan got hosed on the first hole.  Now his confidence is shaken.

    No bad choice there. Would hate to see Spieth lose another lead of final day and have that baggage, but would love to see Kuch win here in a shootout, don't want bogies to decide it.

    Happy for either - probably lean Kucher.  Hoping for playoff.      

    Great and timely OT. Better than an oil change on a Camry.  B)B)B)

    Spieth, what a response after the drive on 13.  Dang-killer instinct today for sure.  
    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    Agree, very happy with either winning and it's been a good day of golf. Just had to pull for a big win for Kuch but looks futile at this point.

    Wow! Two absolutely class acts.  Almost fell out of my chair when Spieth "cup checked" his caddie in the scorer's tent.

    That was hilarious. Great day to watch A whole round of golf (and there are very few of those in my book).

    I'm a huge Spieth fan. Was standing 20 feet from him 2 years ago when he putted out for the win at 18  at the Masters. Met @Chubbs there too which was awesome. He runs one of the scoreboards.

    I worked overnight and was very disappointed to wake up and find out I missed a very entertaining day of golf. I did manage to watch a little bit and enjoy a cold one at 8am before bed.

    Totally agree, golf needs the next star and he's a great guy.

    Tiger who?

  • Tiger who?

    #newsherrif
    I saw this week that tiger fell out of the top 1000 (not 100, 1000) golfers in the world. I actually think that sucks. I couldn't stop watching when he was at his best. Jordan is a local guy for us down here so that is really fun to watch. After how he melted down in the masters last year, when he was 4 over and 100 yards of course today I was thinking "here we go again". What he did those last 5 holes was pretty ballsy. Fun to watch golf again for the first time in a long time. I keep waiting for Rory to step back up and provide some fireworks with those 2 for years to come.

    I thought that Jordan's acceptance comments were some of the most thoughtful that I've ever heard. Class act.

    Spieth's slow play is ridiculous. Kuch shouldn't have had to sit there for a half hour in the fairway while SlowPlay Spieth was screwing around.

    It's ironic that golf is doing everything it can to speed up the game to keep it relevant in today's world while its top star plays slower than a 90 yr old grandma with a pull cart.

    I 100% agree with that in any scenario other than a final round of a major. Not saying that it's perfectly acceptable but with everything on the line so to speak, it makes sense given the gravity of the situation. 

    However, rules are rules and etiquette is etiquette. I'm not sure if this type of thing is frowned upon or understood by other PGA players. 

    Also, this isn't the only time Speith has taken his sweet time.

    Agreed. I'll say, I've always wanted to golf as well as Tiger, and now I do!

    The comparisons are laughable..

    Look at 23 and 24 year old Tiger..  Holy crap. He won over 40% of the tourneys he entered in that span.  That's nuts.

    Yup. He'd been notified prior to his 30 min debacle for slow play. I don't care if you are in the last group of a major. The rules should apply equally to all players.
