I've always understood "local rule" to mean "you don't get punished if...", and I think the standard USGA rule of golf mostly says you can't replace broken equipment mid-round. USGA posted:(2) Use or Repair of Club Damaged During Round. If a conforming club is damaged during a round or while play is stopped under Rule 5.7a, the player normally must not replace it with another club. (For a limited exception when the player did not cause the damage, see Rule 4.1b(3)). E: Torgeaux put it a lot better than I could. DJExile fucked around with this message at 14:45 on Aug 7, 2020 |

I'm just saying it seems odd they'd have a local rule specifically for the championship specifically for breaking and replacing a club mid-round when PGA/USGA rules say in other circumstances, "Nope".

Huh, I would not have thought of this:USGA Interpretations posted:4.1b(1)/1 – Separate Clubhead and Shaft Are Not a Club I'm enjoying the image of Bryson's caddie having a second bag of nothing but shafts. E: welp guess not lol quote:4.1b(4)/1 – Club Components May Be Assembled When Not Carried By or For Player DJExile fucked around with this message at 14:51 on Aug 7, 2020 |

I like the idea of having a bag full of club heads and shafts, but NOT having the local rule in effect so you CANNOT use the replacement shafts (the rule states 'use original components'). Now you're REALLY up poo poo creek. You thought you'd covered all the bases. Rule, no rule, a bag full of club making equipment, little bottles of that grip tape solvent and a vice grip chock to help shaft and regrip your entire set while walking down the fairway? All for naught. But you'll show them. The rules committee won't know what hit them.

I misinterpreted that rules guy yesterday they showed on TV then, it seemed like it was a new rule overall from 2019 by the way he explained it.

Jesus that was the fastest I’ve seen Tiger pick up a tee in a long time. It was swing/club twirl/tee pick up, the ball was just reaching its apex lol Tiger to shoot -5 today!

LOL at SVP comparing Lorenzo-Vera to Al Swearengen. Also LOL at Rickie whiffing or tapping his ball and missing the cut. And I like Rickie

Can they just fire Faldo live on air and announce Phil is doing the full Romo and signed a 10 year contract or whatever?

I feel like all the big distance guys are near the top of the leaderboard. I guess this course puts a premium on long, accurate drives.

It's amazing that champ carries his driver 320 by hitting absolute seeds that are like 60-80 feet off the ground. What a stud.

A guy I played with in my club championship had that happen this year but he hit a wedge up into some super thick fir trees which isn't all that surprising compared to those cypress trees.

If Casey hadn't gotten up and down from 130 on 18 we'd have the Bryson/Brooks pairing we should've had weeks ago.

Jesus, the coverage sucks. I'm not sure how long the, "why do we like sports" montage was, but by the end I was just telling for them to show some loving golf. 5 minutes of air time, 2 minutes of golf, commercial. For some reason, suddenly at around 345 EST the coverage just went to that lowfty bullshit. The coverage of the PGA has always been bad, though. Last Chance for Glory!!! Edit: well, it's getting worse. Showing people on the practice range, montage of other tournaments, a picture of Cameron champ's grandfather. Do they know there is golf going on right now? torgeaux fucked around with this message at 21:08 on Aug 9, 2020 |

I'm hoping Bryson and Finau get into a "who can hit it harder" contest while playing together today and shoot themselves out of the tournament, while my boy Morikawa gets into a playoff with Brooks. Don't care which one wins because either would be a great story.

The US Women’s Am is happening like 10 miles north of me so I’ve been watching that during the day this weekend before switching to the PGA at night. Currently on the 32nd hole of the championship match, sounds like I’m not missing much.
