I didn't realize you were such an Adam Scott fan... :D

Tiger missed the cut...ouch.

He just hasn't been the same since he's come back, especially with the driver off the tee. I mean he's still very, very good, but he's not as good as he was back in 2007 ATM.

 

I actually think Sergio Garcia may win. He's at -1, and if he can get the putter going, he's as good of a ballstriker as anyone still out there.

Tiger's swing is so handsy right now it's crazy.

 

Watson is continuing to put up a great performance. Before today I liked Vijay, but he had a terrible round. Watson is doing nothing to tell me he can't pull it off, but I will be watching Furyk at -1

I'm gonna go ahead and make Retief Goosen my pick. He finished with an eagle on 18 today if I'm not mistaken, so that's who I'm going with. I'd love to see Watson with though.

Tom Watson "you're f***ing out!"

 

That was tough to watch but it was nice to see Cink win his first major. He earned it.

Watson completely ran out of gas on the extra holes but that should have never happened if he could have shown some stones with the putt on the 18th. I was very disappointed that he didn't win.

5-15 foot putts have plagued Watson for years, and bit him today. It's weird that a 59 year old didn't lose it because of the long clubs, but putting instead.

 

Excellent effort by him and Cink.

 

Boy, after this weekend I am pissed that ESPN has the Open for a bunch of years exclusively, the broadcasts on ABC were terrible. Tirico is usually OK as a golf commentator but he was brutal this weekend. The one defense I will give them is they were using the BBC feed, not their own, but it was still bad.

Watson absolutely choked. It was hard to watch. I know exactly how he felt on 18 when he had that putt to win the Championship (but to a much lesser extent). He just hit it instead of stroking it and came up way short. Happened to me when I had my first ever attempt at a birdie. I had about a 9 foot put to make and totally choked, hit it about 4 feet.

Just upgraded my 13 year old irons with some Ping G10's I got on ebay for 400 bucks, nice deal.

Not bad. If they're in good condition when you get them, that'll be a steal.

Rock I will buy them from you for $401 right now..final offer...

I may consider that offer since they are black dots, and I went to the club fitter and found out I may be a yellow dot fit with a longer shaft.

Anyone want to sell me a 56 degree Titleist Vokey?

 

What the f*** is that?

 

It sounds like a wrestling move.

Titleist clubs are so pretty.

 

When would you use that club?

It's also known as a sand or lob wedge, and with this club, you can basically hit any shot within 50 yards. It's designed to get way under the ball and pop it up high around the green.

Popular wedge. And very good. I'm wanting to add a 56 and 60 degree wedge to my set. Particularly the 60 degree for flop shots. I currently have a 52 degree wedge that I love, though.

 

I could steal you one from the course I work at and sell it at a discounted rate, say, $60...

You know you put green, but on the low-key, you'd really do it lol. :lol:

Just got one brand-new on eBay for $91 including shipping. Not bad. 2009 56.11 Vokey.

You got yourself a good deal. I'm thinking about inquiring on a deal on Craiglist: TaylorMade Burner Driver (10.5 degree) for my dad and a 60 degree TaylorMade RAC wedge for myself. Both clubs for $115 total. Seems too good to be true. But, the seller says he bought the clubs new at the beginning of the summer and just doesn't like them as much as his old clubs.
