Look, I must say I laughed when Bob asked for relief, his lie was so far down there were earthworms diving for cover, and why was a sprinkler head doing in the rough? In any sport if the rules are there, you use them, end of story. A question I must ask you and its not intended to be smart, if the roles were reversed and Adam played that shot and landed on the sprinkler head and got relief and not Bob, would you still feel the same way?

No different. Put it in under the grass a foot away and play it.

In the burn? That's a terrible error from probably caddy?

Yep.

 

[Satan]

A cold windy day not likely to help Woods dodgy back and leg and …

But I could be wrong

Had it on the channel that was showing the Postage Stamp for about an hour. Must have been close to half of them found the bunker

 

[hawkman]

Did they pair Cantley with Woods so he can catch up while Cantley goes through his routine?

Smith in trouble early

Smith in trouble early

Only question now is whether he can go under par over the last three to avoid an 80.

Great day of open golf

There's a saying.

You can't win a tournament in the first round, but you can lose it.

Copernicus was the one who said it i think

Yep and Rory and Smithy have done just that

Brian Harman’s pre shot routine makes me irrationally angry.

True, but I’d have him putt for my life from 10’

I reckon Brooks Koepka could be the man to win this, i don’t know why but I like the way he’s goes about it no nonsense.
Having said that I’ve just put the kiss of death on him

If he gets up, it’ll be like his other recent wins when everyone goes “oh yeah, he’s the best major player of the last 10 years or so. Of course he would have been in the mix”

I remember his other major wins iirc he seemed to intimidate the others by just being in contention a bit like tiger

Going to be some big names missing the cut here. Hard to see Rory, Bryson, Smith Fowler, Clark making the cut. Anyone 5 over or more would have to have a big day tomorrow.

 

[Woody15]

The weather yesterday and today was/is meant to be the most promising. If that was the most promising day, Saturday and Sunday could bring a lot of pain. I'm all for it.

The coverage just caught a beautiful scene of Tiger in the car park giving out a quality Hawk Tuah.

Spit on that thang Tiger!

If conditions stay the same throughout the day someone is shooting a 62

I doubt it...Wind gusts are supposed to pick up a fair bit as the day goes on

I was just thinking Smithy will come and go low…..pulls tee shot left on the 1st into the rough…maybe not

Interesting what happens when you don't log in here for a few days. Having read the exchange and then sourced the footage myself afterwards I agree with sideswipe

Macintyre got a lucky break but did nothing wrong. Fully entitled to relief.
Them's the breaks.

Are they going to show a Aussie play a shot, other than Cam Smith on the first zilch
