Anyone else surprised BK halved with Lewis or is that just me?

yup, Tom Lewis has been in the wilderness for years, only improved recently and 60th seed. Did BK just expect a win and eased off?

Matchplay can go eitherway, I suppose thats why we enjoy it over strokeplay

I just have to ask, is it bugging anyone else that they are scoring matches as "tied" when the proper term is "All Square"? 

In other news, I'm schedueling a test for OCD tomorrow. 🙂

I'm with you. But the announcers said something this morning that the change in terminology is actually reflecting a change in the rules (more rules stuff!).

Opening the USGA rules for 2019, the only reference to "all square" that I could find was this:

(3) Knowing Match Score. The players are expected to know the match score – that is, whether one of them leads by a certain number of holes (“holes up” in the match) or the match is tied (also known as “all square”).

So it looks like "tied" is now the preferred term.

Ugh.

As far as I am concerned, the USGA is wrong. Thanks for the explanation though, at least GC didn't just make it up. The USGA did. 🙂

It’s All Square.... end of discussion. Of course we can’t get it right here.

Have to make something up to talk about. Go watch yourself a 80’s Match Play event, or any event for that matter. The commentators were amazing, and the golf was even better. More creativity from both sides.

And for that reason I really miss Johnny Miller. His 63 at Oakmont was truly a feat. I hope no one ever beats it with the Thors Hammers and mallet putters, and MOI.

Ok, sorry for the mini rant....

My daughter actually picked him to win the whole thing. Not sure why. Last year she picked Jordan.

 

Matt Wallace won 3 times on the Euro Tour last year and wasn't selected for the Ryder Cup.  Sergio had an off year and was a captain's pick.  If I were Wallace, I'd have been upset.

Finish to Bubba vs Na was a fun one. Bubba in bunker in front of green, Na lays back. Bubba flubs the bunker shot back into his footprint. Chunks the next one, picks up and concedes the match to Na who was on the green in 2.

Nice W for the big cat. Rors steamrolled List. Casey looked good. Furyk what a comeback.

Rahmbo... watch out everyone.
After the first matches, I feel great about having Rahm in the final but not so great about having Kisner winning it all!

I think when Rahm gets that concentration down... he will win, and win a ton of events. One of my favorite swings on tour. Long but compact, and full of power... with a little tail off fade. Give him 2 more years and he will be there a lot on late Sunday afternoons more often.

Wallace got himself a solid draw. JT hasn't been as on point with his irons, Keegan is brutal at matchplay, and just call Bjerregaard an also ran.

Apparently I should remove my previous statement on Lucas here. Now the betting favorite on Bovada after knocking down JT.

This is my first time really keeping up with this event so pardon my ignorance, How are ties broken after the 3rd round if 2 guys have the same record?

So Stenson and Furyk are undefeated playing each other tomorrow.  Day and Mickelson are winless and out; playing each other tomorrow.  Why?  Can't they just say Good-Good and go home?
