US Open 2011

[MegaWatty]

I guess we should have a thread.

[Johnny Canuck]

Veetle?

[simmsy]

mega sux!!

that is all.

[MegaWatty]

I am using a VPN to watch it on the US Open website. It looks like there will be a feed here at 10PM (http://veetle.com/index.php/channel/view#4de650bc69917).

[BrisVegas]

Nick OHern is leading the US Open!!!!! OMG!!!!!

(thru 2 holes). :lol:

[MegaWatty]

Enjoy in high quality! (http://www.veetle.com/v/4df9262601636)

[BrisVegas]

nice!

[simmsy]

thanks bubba.

[MegaWatty]

Is Davis Love colour blind?

[simmsy]

They would suit Yoss.

[simmsy]

does anyone else want to smash Monty's head in?

can he talk anymore about "when i was playing here" or "i would do this"

tosser.

[Lagerlover]

Andres Gonzales....."half man, half amazing".

All the way with Andres!!

[TheTrueReview]

For those that don't know, there's an official US Open 2011 app in itunes. It includes a 'watch live coverage' option.

[TheTrueReview]

Enjoy in high quality! (http://www.veetle.com/v/4df9262601636)

Well done Mega. Much more golf being shown than on the One HD coverage.

[3oneday]

Yeah, watched the One coverage for 15 minutes just after 5am, and sat through two add breaks in that time !

[simmsy]

Go Rory!!!!!!

[Sydney Hacker]

Rory would have to be short odds at most betting agencies for leading a major after the first round wouldn't he?

From memory that is the US Open, Masters & The Open in the last year he has put together great first rounds.

[Goldy]

Does the watch live work in Aus? I was uner the impression that it didn't.

[TheTrueReview]

Does the watch live work in Aus? I was uner the impression that it didn't.

Perhaps not. I tried it this morning. It seemed to be about to start and then would quit but didn't give an error message or a message saying not available outside the US.

It'll be a bit of a bitch if it can't. I was in the US this time last year & watched the final round on the iphone app.

And short odd for a choke in Rd 3 or 4!

[3oneday]

No mention of Scott Hend boys ? I didn't even realise he was in the field.

US only. I hooked up the VPN on my phone and it worked. It's rubbish quality so you're missing nothing

[MegaWatty]

Notice the tricked up groupings?

The Italians together (including the brothers), the Spaniards together, world 1,2 and 3 together (I actually like this), 3 Masters together and the unfortunate losers together - Rory, DJ and Phil.

I don't rate this sort of crap fancy stuff.

[Johnny Canuck]

Google US Open "Jerk Group". I think it was yesterday at 2:08. Happens every year, a group of golfers that no one likes. Yest was Rory Sabs, Allenby and Ryan Palmer I believe.

[MegaWatty]

Poults, Fowler and Mahan. Colourful.

[Pieface]

I hope Day can build on his solid start.

[PeteyD]

They always do those sort of groupings for the open.

[PerryGroves]

Google US Open "Jerk Group". I think it was yesterday at 2:08. Happens every year, a group of golfers that no one likes. Yest was Rory Sabs, Allenby and Ryan Palmer I believe.

I was wondering whether Ryan Palmer failed to attend the compulsory Tuesday Bible study and got that group as his punishment. Didn't know he was one of them.

The third is Ryan Moore not Ryan Palmer, makes sense.

[Flavzz]

No mention of Scott Hend boys ? I didn't even realise he was in the field.

Saw a highlight of him chipping in for birdie at one hole and he ended up -2 and tied for 4th! Handy start. Good luck to him over the next 3 days. They said he qualiied for the US then flew to Italy for the open there then flew to the states.

Solid -1's from last weeks winner Robert Rock who rocks the no hat look and also from defending champ G Mac who is still well under the radar. Rock also had not played a round at congressional before today.

Ps can someone please shoot Sabbatini and that stupid hat. Cowboy wanker. Why does every other S African golfer seem like a top bloke except him?

[MegaWatty]

Sabs has had skin cancer cut out which is why he's chosen that hat. Trying to find any sort of wide brim hat that doesn't flop around in the wind is near impossible. Honestly, he's chosen to wear it for a fair reason. Who cares?

[oncewasagolfer]

Do you have a link for tonight mega?

[MegaWatty]

Starts in 3 hours. Same one as last night should work.

[Flavzz]

Ok my bad... I obviously didn't know that or I wouldn't have made the comment.

[MegaWatty]

Rory wants an internet hug. ;)

[oncewasagolfer]

Think I'll be asleep before then:)

[MegaWatty]

The big question is when will Rory Mc shoot his famous round of 80. Should there be a question mark there? Perhaps it should be: The big question is 'when will Rory Mc shoot his famous round of 80?'.

Coverage starts in 25 minutes if anyone can falsify their IP address to be in America.

[oncewasagolfer]

Is that using a Proxy?

[MegaWatty]

A VPN.

Your alternate if you want to see some US Open action is here (http://www.veetle.com/v/4da777390d021).

[Minor_Threat]

Is it my HD or do the greens look ordinary and bumpy?

[MegaWatty]

I heard they had some very hot weather recently that killed some of the grass off.

[MegaWatty]

Nice putt for birdie on 4 for Rors.

[Johnny Canuck]

I was wondering whether Ryan Palmer failed to attend the compulsory Tuesday Bible study and got that group as his punishment. Didn't know he was one of them.

Cheers for the correction, wrong Ryan.

Apparently, the jerk group is a long standing tradition.

[MegaWatty]

Nice putt for birdie on 4 for Rors.

And 6. He's looking pretty damn good.

[Yossarian]

Is it my HD or do the greens look ordinary and bumpy?

This.

[MegaWatty]

He just holed his second for an eagle on 8!

-10.

[MegaWatty]

Awesome to watch. Landed it about 4 or 5 metres past the hole and pulled it back and down the hill. Phil's approach to 3 1/2 feet hardly got a clap! :)

[simmsy]

you are just rubbing it in now aren't you.

[MegaWatty]

No.

Yes.

[MegaWatty]

Thanks Dean.

[Courty]

Bubba's outfit is atrocious!

[Chris32]

Bubba's outfit is atrocious!

Just waiting for him to start doing the goose step :D

Poor Ernie looks like he is putting with a snake

[oncewasagolfer]

WOW! What a 36 holes by rory pity about the finish but at least it gives the others a slim chance.

[simmsy]

Hope Rory can keep it going.

If he doesn't win they will have to put him in a padded room I fear.

[Jarro]

Hope Rory can keep it going.

If he doesn't win they will have to put him in a padded room I fear.

It would indeed be nice to see yet another non-american win their big tournament 8)

Rory really should run away with it now, he looks so confident, and appears to have forgotten about his masters nightmare finish :shock:

[Eag's]

Rory has the biggest 36 hole lead in U.S. Open history, surely he will stay solid and win by plenty this time?

[Daves]

Scott looks like missing the cut by 1, Doofus! Senden, Day and Leishman are the only aussies playing the weekend.

[BroKar]

I would love to see Rory win by a big margin and then go on to dominate for the next 5-10 years, I really believe all he lacks is that conditioning but once he has that winning feeling and the monkey of being a choker is off the back he will be dominant, probably not as dominant as Tiger was on the game but in his own right.

Absolutely love his style of play, it looks very easy.

[TheTrueReview]

I hope so too.

His first order of business should be to stay away from the media with their stupid questions & meaningless statistics. That shyte will mess with anyone's head.

[rabsss]

Nick O'Hern has to go back tomorrow and has a 6ft putt to make the cut. Wonder if he will actually be able to sleep...

[TheTrueReview]

At least we know what he'll be practising on the putting green tomorrow ...

[idgolfguy]

Missing that would kill you!

[Nuffie]

I havent seen much coverage, only the last 30 mins on one HD this morning.

Are the Aussies playing poorly or is the course just kicking their butts? Surely Rory couldn't have another meltdown from the position he's in. If the Aussies struggle I'd rather see him take out the major than one of the US players.

Tom Watson was the same as this bloke, even got the name 'choker'. Then he reeled off a string of majors (8 in 8 years). I hope he wins this one.

[MegaWatty]

Hopefully18 wasn't a sign of things to come!

[MAZA68]

How big is that freakin clubhouse, its the size of a local shopping mall.

[goughy]

Think City Golf Clubs clubhouse is bigger ;)

[oldmannoodles]

Anyone got a link working tonight?

[MegaWatty]

Its not on for another few hours I thought.

[oldmannoodles]

The first group is already 6 holes in.

[MegaWatty]

No coverage online until 2am WA time!

[oldmannoodles]

No probs - couldn't find anything myself this early. Have to make do with last night's highlights.

[dean0820]

Nick O'Hern has to go back tomorrow and has a 6ft putt to make the cut. Wonder if he will actually be able to sleep...

dear nick,
want me to hold that light while you practice that putt?
regards, dean

seriously, i'd spend an hour or two on that green overnight, rules be damned.
make absolutely sure you know the break, make the putt, make the cut, go enjoy the next 2 days.

[Daves]

I gather Nick missed the putt.

[Daves]

Day making a move on Day 3, into T3.

[TheTrueReview]

Day making a move on Day 3, into T3.

Outstanding. Go Jason.

[PeteyD]

Rory to choke. Day to win.

[Flavzz]

Great stuff from Day. Hopefully Rory doesn't hold on for the win but rather powers on and smashes the field for his first major!

[Pieface]

more than happy to see rory take it out.

Go Day too!

[MegaWatty]

Time to start 'Rory Proofing' US Open courses!

[hocko]

With a swing like his i don't know what you would do!

[Yossarian]

Get bulk sluts to crack onto him, eventually it will all come out and his plummet down the rankings will ensue.

[MegaWatty]

With a swing like his i don't know what you would do!

They'll probably just ban grooves completely.

[aussieashley]

Did anyone see Robert Garrigus putting?
He's T3 at the moment. His putter is massively cut down. Almost looks like he's going to putt it with his hand.

Just looked on Wikipedia "Garrigus is noted for using a putter only 28.5 inches in length"

[aussieashley]

12295

[rubin]

Anybody see adlo on last nights highlights as well? ;)

Looking very tourfit in his loud blue polo and white pants.

[TheTrueReview]

12295

Wish Garrigus would stop using his kid's putter. It hurts my eyes.

[oncewasagolfer]

Yep:(

The commentary this morning said it was 27"

[Webster]

Rory is putting with a honey dipped Scotty this week.

[MegaWatty]

Rory is putting with a honey dipped Scotty this week.

The USGA will ban them next week. He's made a mockery of their tournament.

[aussieashley]

Maybe he's going shorter and shorter. Soon there'll be no visible shaft. Just a putter head with a grip on it.

[dc68]

Will Rory be up all night thinking about his Augusta meltdown?

[MegaWatty]

And British meltdown?

[hocko]

Maybe he's going shorter and shorter. Soon there'll be no visible shaft. Just a putter head with a grip on it.
Or maybe he will remove the shaft and just poke his finger in the hosel?

[timah!]

And ***oshima Meltdown....

Oh, wait....

[goughy]

Or maybe he will remove the shaft and just poke his finger in the hosel?

If he wants to have two hands on the shaft, he may have to poke something else in there!!!! :o

[BrisVegas]

Go Rory. I'm rooting for ya. :cool:

[Sydney Hacker]

Yes... I'm sure that will spur him on Vegas! ;)

[Bruce]

Garrigus ate the kid and stole his putter.

[BrisVegas]

Yes... I'm sure that will spur him on Vegas! ;)

Can't hurt to try. :wink:

[TourFit]

Go Rory. I'm rooting for ya. :cool:


Can't hurt to try. :wink:

Depends who you're rooting...or if they're rooting you!

[Leon Phelps]

Garrigus ate the kid and stole his putter.
Massive lol

Classic. :lol:

[AlexMc]

Rory will be fine. Shame it isn't a Rory/Day final group though...

[markTHEblake]

Whats the story with them hitting off so late in the afternoon 3.20Pm their time.

That is a really long time to be awake before hitting off, and it messes with your head. I know from experience up north when final groups wouldn't tee off until 1.45pm and that was too much for me, because you just cant wait to get out there. I found the best way to compensate was to hit the nightclubs until about 3am so I could sleep longer.

didnt work

[Yossarian]

Is it on atm? Anyone got a linky?

[MegaWatty]

Nope.

Starts at 1:30. Watch this in the mean time. (http://www.veetle.com/v/4da777390d021)

[Yossarian]

1:30!!!???! ****.

That.

[MegaWatty]

Wake up early. Rory tees off at 3:20 our time.

[Johnny Canuck]

Too scared to watch.

[MegaWatty]

It's looking promising Canuck!

[Johnny Canuck]

Crazy things happen in golf. Looks good, but fingers crossed. Will be checking very eagerly in the morning.

[MegaWatty]

You can take me out for lunch on Tuesday.

[Johnny Canuck]

No, homo.

[Courty]

Seriously, NASCAR?

[PeteyD]

it is on 10 doofus. Nascar takes the hd.

[simmsy]

Can someone at channel 10 tell Elvy to shut the f$$$ up!! He's so Fu/:;;) annoying.

[Courty]

Just started on ONE HD now, thank ****!

[PerryGroves]

Can someone at channel 10 tell Elvy to shut the f$$$ up!! He's so Fu/:;;) annoying.

Are you desperate to get him off and hear more from Johnny "Me, me, I, I" Miller. I don't mind Elvy, thought he did a decent job during the summer out here.

[simmsy]

Nah he's a tosser. He would be better off covering the netball.

[goughy]

Holy f'n shit! Just watched yangs awesome tee shot at 10, and mcilroy out does him, must have only been half a foot off draining it! F... This kid is good, seems to have a great attitude, and kids so comfortable right now. No smugness.

Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk

[simmsy]

Great shot wasn't it!

[Courty]

Awesome shot.

On another note, Johnny Miller is a deadset ****!

[IanO]

Rory missed a fairway! Is that the 1st today?

[BrisVegas]

Rory could make a bogey here... He's 9 shots ahead. Reckon i'm safe to head to work?

[IanO]

Working from home so I can watch

[IanO]

Go Jason!

[Daves]

Only 2 Seppos in the top 11 of their own Open.

[Daves]

Is Rory using an old model Titty 3 wood?

[timah!]

I was thinking the same, but 910 cover?

Looked like a 904 or 906. The latest Headcover on an old club isn't unusual.

Going by a few things i've heard him say lately, I reckon Miller has a woody for himself :roll:

GO RORY !!!!

How good is it to see Sergio put together a good finish...

Jason Day outright second at the mo......

8)

I was just thinking that :)

[Courty]

They just mentioned Rory is even on the par 3s, -4 on the par 5s, and -12 on the par 4s!

[Jarro]

So far this week, he's hit 62 GIR ... a record !!

[BroKar]

Honestly had enough of the 2 adds, homo abroad and this ewan macgreggor show, annoying

[Courty]

Great saves on the last by Westwood & Day.

[Courty]

Yang DEEEEEEP in the crowd!

[TheTrueReview]

Back to back 2nds in a major for Jason Day. Well done.

[3oneday]

I just heard he's been disqualified :shock:











;)

[Xamilo]

Grat for Day, unexpected. And almost back-to-backs for Rory if he wouldn't have choked on that Sunday. Golf is becoming very interesting once again....

[BrisVegas]

Rory v Day. It's gonna be a great new era for golf. Top stuff. :cool:

[PeteyD]

Why do you think Day coming second is unexpected? 2 top 10s in the last 3 majors (3 of 4 now). Awesome to see Rory go Wire to Wire.

[Not so Big Easy]

Congrats to Rory particularly, and great effort for Day.

With such a global dominance, not just one country, any chance they could drop the US PGA and pick up another tournament as the 4th major?

Looking forward to seeing Day in the Presidents Cup

[timah!]

Rory v Day. It's gonna be a great new era for golf. Top stuff. :cool:

Absolutely. It's good to watch. Potentially Fowler as well. It's awesome to watch!

[Eag's]

Great to see the young bloke break through for what will be his first of many Major's 8-)

[Yossarian]

Hopefully Ty tryon can get a better run at it next year.

[simmsy]

u idiot ;)

[BroKar]

Why do you think Day coming second is unexpected? 2 top 10s in the last 3 majors (3 of 4 now). Awesome to see Rory go Wire to Wire.


Agree with this, its because all everyone seems to talk about in Australia is Adam Scott this and Adam Scott that, Day much better player in "my opinon" and will win a major before Scott does.

[TourFit]

Makes a bit of a mockery of all that BULLSH*T stuff by the Americans after Rory's Masters collapse, "...will he have scar tissue?"..."can he ever recover?" ..."will he contend at a Major again after this?" and blah, blah, blah (we have to talk 'cos we love the sound of our own voices!)

That's how to answer the critics I guess!

(and I reckon Stevie is now reconsidering a future move to Scotty's bag!!!)

[AlexMc]

Jason Day now Number 9 in the world...

[timah!]

Definitely keen for the British Open now!

[markTHEblake]

no chance. There is no 'they' that decided what is or is not a major. They just are.

[Grunt]

Over here they have adopted Rory as an American, is in all the papers

[Goldy]

Over here they have adopted Rory as an American, is in all the papers

It's the only way the guys on the telecast could live with the fact that the highest "actual" American was in the midst of a shootout for shitsteenth.

[chappy1970]

Heard Johnny Miller crap on about the lack of US winners in the Majors of late, should be more of it I think.

Frickin US golfers think they have a god given right to win the US based majors.

They can claim one major winner though because Johhny Miller is a MAJOR TOOL

[Goldy]

They can claim one major winner though because Johhny Miller is a MAJOR TOOL

A very common emotion felt by anyone even remotely interested in golf, Chappy.

[Jarro]

Jason Day now Number 9 in the world...

And the kid thoroughly deserves it too ..... he's been carving it up of late ... especially in the majors 8)

[chappy1970]

I'd assume that Rory would like to be known as an American about as much as he would like to be known as English

[TheTrueReview]

I heard that idiot journalist Jim Wilson being interviewed on Sky News about the win of McIlroy.

Get this - he said he was astounded that McIlroy wasn't playing in the Presidents Cup this year. Another journo then had to explain to Wilson the concept of the Presidents Cup. Wilson then went on to demonstrate even more that he doesn't know a thing about golf & blab on that because the best golfers are now European there should be a 'way' to get Europeans playing in Australia for the Aussie fans.

http://www.claxtonspeakers.com.au/img/speakerimg_510.jpg

[Jarro]

Ah yes, the Wilsons ..... top shelf sports journos for sure :roll:

[PeteyD]

Pair of dickheads of the first degree.

[oncewasagolfer]

Wish Johnny miller would just retire he really is a pain to listen to. Think it was in the second round that miller virtually said McDowell had a shit swing then the very next day he was backing down from what he had said...wanker!
Full credit to rory he really kicked some butt. That wasn't anything like a us open course from what I can recall, short rough and soft greens was more like a regular tour event.

[TheTrueReview]

...That wasn't anything like a us open course from what I can recall, short rough and soft greens was more like a regular tour event.

The pin placements were allegedly to give the rest of the field a chance to catch McIlroy.

[oncewasagolfer]

The pin placements were allegedly to give the rest of the field a chance to catch McIlroy.
Yeah I understand that but in past us opens players would struggle just to hold the greens and there was always a premium to hitting the fairway.

[PeteyD]

They had a fair bit of unseasonal rain that softened it up. Hot and dry would have been different.

[markTHEblake]

Frickin US golfers think they have a god given right to win the US based majors.

I havent heard anything like that coming from the Yanks. When Rory lost the US Masters the yankees seemed to take an instant liking to him, and crowd were supporting him all around the US open from what I saw. Completelythe opposite to how they treated the grumpy Scotsman in years gone by, by cheering his bad shots etc

[IanO]

Yup, I'm with MTB on this... That crowd was loving him sick. The response when he said he will have to play more in the US was outstanding

For clarity gents my comment was in response to Johnny Miller and Co in the commentary box.

I certainly didn't detect any US bias with the galleries on the telecast so this was not aimed at them (Ryder Cup crowds excluded)

[Daves]

How big was that cop that was providing security escort to Rory as he headed to the scoring tent! He was an absolute man mountain!

He look like he wanted to eat McIlroy. "Did someone say steak?"

[BayBum]

I thought the rough was quite long Oncewas ? It def looked that way during the first couple of rounds.Anyway....anytime McIlroy went in it he got a perfect lie :)

Funniest moment in the final round was Henrik Stenson chucking a wobbly, thumping his iron hard on the ground and snapping the shaft only to have it stab him in the hand! His caddy had to get the first aid kit out to patch him up :-)

Went to Belfast for work yesterday and everyone I met had a Rory story! The funny thing was that the stories were all based around Rory the person and not Rory the golfer. Can't wait to watch him at the Open next month :mrgreen:
