    Yet not a single player posted an early score to put some pressure on the leaders. Dont see that often.

    DJ shot equal best round of the day with 68.

    Maybe the course was a bit harder than it appeared on TV.

    I noted a few different pin positions from the traditional Sunday locations. 16 certainly was different.

    And another thing, not one player that was in contention ( if you could call it that) tanked on the back 9. So used to seeing Amen corner or 15 destroy a few players souls.

    Also was alow scoring day it seems. Very few blowouts amongst the leading players.

    Alright, I'm going to be "that" person.
    I'm pretty sure I watched every minute of the final day telecast and can't recall anyone giving their thoughts to those who lost loved ones due to the virus or be grateful that we still get to play golf at all.
    I'm sure Augusta would have put a blanket ban on the topic and it is extremely divisive in the US but it wouldn't have to have been a political message. The winners of both our main footy codes gave their best wishes during their acceptance speeches.

    ANGC don’t allow anything less than 100% positive about ANGC to be mentioned.

    Good link.
    So he acknowledges their lofts are not accurate. A head branded 10.5 degrees actually measures 11 degrees. Dustin is using 11 degrees in a neutral position. No opening or closing of the adaptor. How do the public know they are getting the loft they have been fitted for?

    That's it, they don't. And in all honesty it's not going to matter the majority of choppers that buy off the rack in a Golf Store.
    Some Course Pro Shops may go the extra yard to get the loft verified/tested and you would expect those core business custom fitting places would.

    It was cold and wet, not to mention all the old pricks like Bernie bunting it around. Watch the distances rise next April.

    Bernie averaged 260 when he was 30. Now he’s in his 60s and averaging 280. Maybe he’s just a better athlete now. Couldn’t possibly be the ball or equipment.
    Cinderella story, out of nowhere, former greenskeeper, now about to become a Masters champion..... It looks like a mirac.. It's in the hole! It's in the hole!

    I don't agree with Chamblee on most things but I don't think he's too far off the mark here. Could apply to all tours of course.

    Yes absolutely. BDC had the advantage at US open because so few trees. When i was a kid I always remembered US Opens would see players hacking out of the rough just to get back to the fairway. That seems to hardly ever happen now.

    Remember a bloke called Seve? There is a reason he didnt play so good at US opens.... no car parks.
