I've been looking forward to this. Caught the Par 3 event yesterday; it was a decent little warmup before the real deal, and Ryan Moore pulled off the win.

Thankfully, I won't be watching it at the Country Club.

The folks over at the Country Club have been driving me crazy lately with those foreign commentators. Then, when they finally switched back to the regular American crew last week, the broadcast was lagging by a good two hours—even though the corner of the screen said "live."🙄

We’re all set up and ready to go, watching on ESPN+... best way to catch the action, period.

Just sitting here in front of the TV with a glass of whiskey on the side. Pure bliss.

Just like always, when it comes to Adam Scott...

You forgot your cigar

No cigar. And definitely no ice in the whiskey.

I guess I'll just root for Rory McIlroy and all the non-Americans.

Scott really blew it on the 15th hole. He probably went way too aggressive chasing that eagle, and in the end, he just completely lost his nerve and settled for a mediocre birdie.

Jack Nicklaus is giving his take on Sky Sports, and honestly, my god, what an absolute load of nonsense... 🙏

Pretty decent conditions, almost zero wind expected through Sunday. Still, should be an interesting one to watch.
Phil Mickelson is struggling out there.

Every single time I start to believe that Martin Kaymer might actually pull something significant together at a Major, he goes out there and delivers a round that is absolutely nothing to write home about...

Even the Germans aren't what they used to be...

Man, what is Lee Westwood wearing? That outfit is something else.

In a certain sense, Tiger Woods isn't even missed; at least the spotlight isn't constantly blinding everyone else for once...

Langer 🙏 🙏

Langer Jebenti, I feel for Sergio Jimenez. He was sitting pretty at -4 through the front nine...

Phil Mickelson is absolutely falling apart on the 15th hole. 🙂

The 11th hole today looks absolutely brutal. I feel like birdies are going to be super rare there, and most players will probably just be happy to walk away with a par.

Missed the action yesterday, but looks like Phil Mickelson is out

Looks like the veteran Couples is holding his own, too. You guys might know he’s got some American roots

The "cigar and Rioja" guy is killing it again today.

I honestly wish Jordan Spieth would just get paired up with that tiresome Bubba Watson. I can’t stand watching him; the guy has absolutely zero personality...

I'm with you on that. Total Bubba - redneck vibes.

It’s such a shame. For the first four days, the kid looked like he actually had some grit, but then he hit those last nine holes and completely folded under the pressure. It happens, I suppose. He’s still got plenty of time to figure himself out, though. I’ve already got my eye on another young talent that I’m following with great interest...
