  1. Horschel is playing with extreme confidence. I won't be surprised if he gets the horse in the barn tomorrow. Would love to see it.

  2. Absolute soft fuckers.
    It wasn’t ‘cold’, it by any stretch.
    It wasn’t even particularly windy.
    This is the kind of weather we play in in Scotland all year, even in January, when it actually IS cold.

  3. Driver driver to a par 4 to come up short. And? I don't understand what the gripe is, it's the same for everyone. Should we blame the officials at just about every single tournament course for not moving the par 4 tee boxes back when the wind is behind, and everyone is driving them?

  4. Golf the way it was meant to be played!! Forged by Nature….Lowery is a cry baby 😭 suck it up buttercup and play in any condition especially in this setting. Didn’t hear the NEW leaders complaining…Lowery must need pristine conditions

  5. You 2 would pick Scottie Scheffler to win a putting contest against prime Ben Crenshaw…..give it a rest already with the Scheffler overhype. Like I said yesterday – Scheffler STILL HASN'T BROKEN 70 or led this golf tournament for even 1 second, and you 2 are talking like this is a done deal that Scheffler is going to win. Sycophantic to the point of nausea.

  6. Americans – “it’s the worst weather I’ve ever had for a round of golf in my life, I’m completely shattered”
    In reality – It rained a bit

  7. Idc, I really don't….
    And Im a Billy H. fan….
    But Im also a lifelong PGA Professional, whose past is sorted….
    Billy H was high af out there today….
    Let call his focus level acute…
    Lol

  8. Rooting for Sacramento's own John Catlin to have a Top-10 or better. His 1st major cut in his career in 5 attempts. Hes on fire

  9. The Open is the Super Bowl x1000! Stop saying low scores in Majors are a good thing! We all suffer as golfers, why should the pros have perfect conditions to shoot -30 like a video game!

  10. BH won last year, maybe BH this year. Was following The Open app coverage, Todd Lewis what a great commentator! Next year Rex and Lav should do some commentating.

    Will miss the end of the Open today as seeing Judas Priest in Athens, radio have to suffice. 🤘.

    Embracing the carnage. Majors are supposed to be a test, physical and mental. No -20 this week!

    Great mini pod.

  11. These guys would prefer golf was an indoor sport. I have loved watching the pros figure out how best to approach each hole at the time they play it. The weather will not be the same for every player, and itmay well be a factor in determining who will win, and that is OK! That doesn't make it "goofy" golf, I would describe it as organic, or unsanitised.

  12. Brilliant final day, great winner, course was setup brilliantly and the conditions ensured we had people who know how to play the fucking game (not pitch and putt) at the top on Sunday
