revkev Posted June 14, 2018 Author Share Posted June 14, 2018 Sounds like exactly what everyone wanted.... not me, but the majority of folks. Maybe it will rain overnight....with no wind. I know you've probably told us before but why don't you like having a tournament where it's tough? If you like birdies and lights out scoring it's there every week. I enjoy that too but once or twice a year I want to see par matter. When I'm playing well I shoot close to par - I can learn a lot watching these guys have to scramble and hit shots in the wind. When the US Open plays as it normally does the play more closely resembles what I'm used to seeing - except the course part - obviously.

revkev Posted June 14, 2018 Author Share Posted June 14, 2018 I've had a few minutes to pull up the stream - that wind looks like I'm watching a British Open. It is on Long Island - a slim swarth of land that sticks out into a large body of water with Great Britain being the next thing in the way if you head ENE. It's likely to be windy and it's likely that the wind will swirl and shift.

I like to see good shots rewarded and bad shots punished. I don't like to see good shots punished. I don't think that's happening - pros miss hit the ball too - some of those balls you see releasing through the green are a few grooves low on the club face. If you are going at a pin on this course you better be perfect.

JTexGolfer Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 I picked Justin Rose for my SpyStaff pick but I have a feeling that Jason Day is going to get the win this week.

StrokerAce Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 ....so far it is clear that you cannot play this course scared or tentative. you have to be confident in everything you do, your lines, your targets, everything and execute to perfection.... every. single. time. nobody plays golf perfectly - not Jack, not Arnie, not Ben, not Tiger, not Annika, not Bobby Jones, nobody.... does that make this tournament interesting? I don't know... there should be some margin for error somewhere. It's like there's a 12 inch circle and if you don't hit it inside that then forget it.... throw in the wind and now fuhgitaboutit. at least there won't be a runaway winner. watching Spieth and Rory hit putts they are playing tentative. i.e. putting as if they were going to miss it make sure that they miss it in the right spot; they're doomed to failure because they seem to be assuming they'll miss instead of confidently stepping up and hitting it into the back of the cup...

Undershooter Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 No one likes it. Even Joe Buck hates itI actually like Fox's broadcasts a lot. They show more golf shots than anyone else and use more tech to help you track/see the ball better.Buck isn't my favorite but he isn't that bad either. I don't get everyone's hate for him. He's a very good player himself btw. Azinger, Strange, Faxon and Shane Bacon are some of my favorite announcers/commenters. My biggest thing with Fox is that they show more actual golf than NBC and especially CBS.
