Golf: All Purpose Golf Thread VI | 2017 PGA Tour Season: Here comes Cantlay!

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Spieth still in this. Needs a halve or better from Ikeda against Tanihara to have a chance to advance.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Yuta Ikeda is ****ing everything up.

Make some putts, man.

Jordan is -6 under today, playing excellent golf, but he's gonna go out if Ikeda can't win some holes against Tanihara.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

This event has been a ****show fantasy wise it seems

 

[Dr John Carlson]

Once DJ finishes off Walker, I will have gotten 3 out of 16 groups correct. Thank God there's only one matchplay event on tour.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

I think DJ is going to demolish everyone this weekend. He is playing so well.

 

[joe89]

I think this tournament would be better off played in a straight 64-bracket. Too many matches that lacks importance and even withdrawals affecting other players. I like matchplay myself, but not round robins, it should be played like a tennis tournament.

The bracket is also a joke now since the groups determined it and there were a million upsets. The two highest seeded players left are slated to meet in the quarterfinal. Seedings are fickle in golf obviously but if you're gonna do it at least do it properly. Should've been a re-seed after the groupstage in this case.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

I always preferred the full bracket rather than the groupings they have now as well. Players always said that they didn't like how they could be out of the tournament after one day if they lose in the first round. I see how that would be annoying, but that's sort of the entire point of match-play. Play well or see you next week.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

Rahm is going to win this thing.

Honestly he is having such a great year.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

Yeah, Rahm is looking fairly unstoppable right now. But, so is DJ.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

Rahm v DJ indeed.

Every match looking like a massacre right now.

3UP, 3UP,4UP,2UP

all still on the front 9

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Does Rahm remind anyone else of DJ with maybe a little better course management?

Don't get me wrong, the current DJ is very good, but he's taken like 10 years of just being only a bomber to round off his game. Rahm seems to be a bomber who kind of has a rounded off game already, and might not be waiting until age 31 to win a major.

 

[joe89]

Can't believe Dustin walked away with that hole. Noren didn't come to play to start the match and was gifted back in.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

All aboard the Tanihara train.

I think Rahm could cement himself in the Spieth/Rory tier and/or achieve OWGR #1 this year. His potential is limitless.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

Also,

DeChambGOAT is T4 and two shots back in Puerto Rico, so let's all hope he can grab a win!

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

We're all clearly not hoping for such a puke inducing result.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

I know we'd all love to see Bryson slip on the Green Jacket in two weeks, he's gotta come through tommorow so that he qualifies to actually get in the field.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

I think there's a better chance Tiger wins the Masters this year than DeChambeau.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

So much hate.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

My boy Hideto is doing it!

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

rahm thru to finals, Bryson 1 back with 2 holes to play!

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Tanihara could take this.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

Rahm vs DJ.

Go Rahm!

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

DeChambeau birdies 18 and ties clubhouse lead!

As long as nobody gets to -19 he will get into a playoff!

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

Exciting golf Sunday!
