Rory's gonna win hth




This year, the PGA Championship visits a majestic, enormous hall located in Asga - I mean a golf course in Louisville. Despite being less than 30-years-old, this will be its 6th major tournament. Tiger won when the PGA was last held here in 2000 in a dramatic playoff over Bob May, completing the third leg of the Tiger Slam, but he's probably not going to play this week because he tweaked his surgically repaired back in last week's tournament.

Rory, Rickie, and Sergio are the obvious picks. For the other two, a lot of other potentials played well last week:

Keegan Bradley T4
Justin Rose T4
Grame McDowell T8
Adam Scott T8
Phil Mickelson T15

Phil shot a 62 on Sunday, but you can be super on for 1 round without it carrying forward. Conversely, Graeme's 66-66 on the weekend puts him slightly ahead of Adam Scott's 65-71 for me. Keegan had a solid 67-69 on the weekend, but Justin Rose has played better this season and recently.

I seriously think fans like him mainly because his name is Bubba.
100% this.

Golf Channel and stream.golfchannel.com are trained on Tiger on the driving range. :getin:

Looks like Tiger has officially registered and is about to start his practice round.

Nothing like hitting a few balls on the range and doing zero putting/chipping before your only practice round prior to a major. He's either going to miss the cut or win by 8 strokes.
He's not winning, but he could scrape through the cut.

Man this online feed is terrible. Constant buffering and freezes and then random complete drops where I have to refresh the website to get it back at all.
Use the smartphone app. I've been streaming on my iPhone since they website stream went down.

Bubba is apparently asking his caddy not to tell the TV/radio/internet people what club he's using.

It would be the most annoying thing about this group, but for the Omega ad with Rory that is being played at every opportunity.
Is he insecure about possibly hitting more club than Rory? :down:

50 minute rain delay only, but they're going to play the ball down. :wtc:

Is this going to finish today or are they going to miss it by about a half hour? If this doesn't finish today it's a drat shame.
I'm actually concerned about this. When it gets dark, it's hard to read putts, which doesn't bode well for the final 2 groups, Rory even more so.
