Rory making that to finish it out in style would have been the icing on the cake to this awesome day.

Do people like McIlroy or is he kind of a oval office, or both?

Highly popular, no he's not a oval office in my opinion.

Feel kinda bad for Ricky Fowler, did so well in all 4 majors but didn't win any of them.

Of course. Just thinking what with him going for the career grand slam and also three majors in a row it will be ridiculous come April.

:shepface:God I fucking love Diablo 3 gold, it even paid for this shitty title:shepface:

^ He hasn't won the grand slam yet, he needs a Masters win. Can't wait til April!

Wow what a finish. I was really surprised Rory went with driver on 18 considering the fading light and him knowing a par would likely be good enough. I know he's been amazing with the driver lately but it still nearly ended up in the hazard.

Something tells me we're going to see a lot of Rory vs Fowler in the majors in the near future and that is pretty exciting. If anything can get more people back into the sport it'll be those two.

Well we had poo poo weather here after the practice rounds and Thursday, but I hope everyone liked Louisville. This was a fantastic tourney and it was pretty cool that our hole (16) ended up as the deciding factor with Phil's bogey.

Also hitting 8 iron in as an approach on a 510 yard par 4 is just ridiculous.

There's a chance Valhalla becomes the permanent home for the US Ryder Cup and I hope that's the case. This course is really good.

Especially considering they were getting between 0-10 yards of roll on their drives.

On a scale of 1 to Tiger it'll be about an 8.
