OT: Official 2024 PGA Tour thread
- Thread starter WhiteBus
- Start date
I just hate the ESPN coverage of golf, especially at the Masters. Doing an interview with a former NFL Player, Ryan Fitzpatrick briefly talking about the NFL while at Augusta. At least CBS takes over the weekend.
Why I watch masters coverage on the Masters app until weekend coverage. Follow the selected groups. Makes it so much more enjoyable. Only golf no fluff.
Agreed, although my guess is they're contractually not allowed to cover all day, which would be way better than watching all this fluff. Would be interesting to see Tiger and Phil make the cut and play together next round (Tiger's +1 and Phil's +2 and the cut will likely be +3 or +4 given the winds). Hard to imagine Scheffler not winning with the way he's playing, but you never know - wouldn't mind seeing Homa win.
The very least they could do is possibly talk golf and certainly the Masters. The last 2 hours was all football and a shameless commercial for the upcoming draft. They even had Nick Saban on.
Agree on Homa. Looks like Tiger is safe. Would be awesome if he got paired with Phil over the weekend. That would be cool.
Nobody yipped it better than Thomas. He was even par and still in contention heading to 15............ he proceeded to go +7 over the last four holes.
That's impressive.
Harman says hello. 1sr round 34 on the front and 47 on the back 9.
Didn't DJ suffer a pretty serious back injury by falling down the stairs prior to a major? I think stopped his momentum.
Why is Rory in this group? Made the cut. Has a win and 2 top 5 finishes. That’s terrible?
Only winning majors matters. Rory's last win was almost a decade ago.
Ask the person who posted the list, but I guess it's due to Thomas missing 4 of the last 5 cuts at majors.
You can dress for cold. You can stay relatively dry in rain. You are screwed in winds up to 40 mph.
I saw Jason Day on a par 3 hit over the green in the trees. He played a provisional and did the same thing again. Rahm was getting sandblasted trying to putt. When you hit the ball as far as these guys do, lord knows where it's going to end up if it's caught by those gusts.

That was a real shame. He had won 2 or 3 tourneys in a row leading up to the withdrawal.
I would really enjoy one of the top four winning. That last thing I want to see is one guy clearing the field with nothing on the line on the back nine Sunday afternoon. Enjoy the golf all.
Ok, and I agree Morikowa may still have something to say come Sunday's back 9, but when you hit a ball 300 yards there's a lot of time for winds that erratic and strong to say screw your shot shaping. It also affects the spin on approach and even putts.
I admired Bryson's having the idea to play his 2nd on 13 over to the 14th fairway. I've hit shots like that only it wasn't on purpose.
There is a lot of rumors about what really happened that night and it didn't involve falling down the stairs.
Any involve jumping out the bedroom window when the PGA Tour husband returned early from a practice round?
I almost left him out for that, but at the end of the day the guys I called out peaked very early in their careers and were not able to sustain success at a Major Tournament level. In thomas’ case his game completely fell apart.
There was genuine buzz that McIlroy or Spieth could have been number three overall behind Tiger and Jack. Would have been great for the sport with Tiger on the way out.
That marriage was Beauty and the Beast but I though the rumor was Tiger and Dufner's wife.
Not sure, but I hope the conditions are better for the weekend. Let the players play!
