    Rory is the hottest golfer going into this major; in fact, he is so hot, he should win by a half dozen strokes, but he won't. He will lose in some disastrous fashion, but he will go low before the weekend takes him down in flames.

    Statistics are clear that the closer you get, the better. Furthermore, far too often even the best 'take an iron for safety' and promptly stuff it into the rubbish.
    They would be far better looking to hit a smooth driver than any lay up every single time.

    Bravo to USGA for this style of video – the concept of short clips BEFORE the tournament, giving fans a view into players processing holes in real-time, is a GREAT view into the strategy side of golf that makes it so fascinating. More of this!

    Liv golf gives $35 a shot over 54 holes to come dead last over 3 days from 48 players.

    The PGA? 🤦🤷🏻🤣

    The best part about this hole is the temporary tee box on that guy's property. It all comes down after the open

    This feels like a "we have to show the younger guys we can be cooler than LIV" moment; especially with the '21 US Amateur champ at LIV last week. It's nice, but the timing didn't escape me especially since no such video (playing exhibition) exists like this from the USGA at Torrey.

    Patrick Reed: the best strategy is just to hit driver and if I can't find my ball I'll just toss one next to the green and pretend I found it

    Nice to watch two of the good guys in pro golf vs the money grabbers who joined LIV exhibitions.

    Penalised for hitting the ball in the fairway, what is the point in that? It makes no sense, you could just hit the ball into the rough and make your par.

    More! Show more of the lead up to any tournament! The Pros get to spend plenty of time on the course, I think seeing them in shorts and a practice round contemplating weekend strategy makes them a hair more relatable.

    I don't know what people have to say behind the scenes about Rory but it seems he's always super willing to discuss with media, youtube channels, fans, etc. about playing golf. Definitely one of the best ambassadors for the sport.
