Morikawa took a 10 on the par 5 12th today. This was after 4 putting the previous hole.Dumbass Rory could have used it to get a read on his own putt too.
Opportunity missed.
Went 7 over for 2 holes and from -8 to -1.
Ouch.

Yep. The golf course doesn't know your name. He looked like a 10 handicapper on those holes.Morikawa took a 10 on the par 5 12th today. This was after 4 putting the previous hole.

This Tour Championship is just so dumb. There’s basically only 5 or 6 golfers from the starting 30 that can win it. Boring.
Gee, even at just the half way mark it looks like it’s down to just 2 or 3.
Flawed concept.
Well, Max Stoner Homa brought it up yesterday Don. He shot a 62 but it barely made a ripple where any chance of winning was concerned and he and others questioned the format, again.Agreed Red, If it wasn't for the money involved why would most even bother turning up?
Strangest concept in golf I can think of. Even worse than playing par on Saturday's.

Don’t start me on Par.
I said don’t start me on Par !Par would have to be golf’s most unpopular format.
I know no-one who likes it.
From what I can gather it seems participant numbers are always down when it is the known event.
Are clubs under some kind of obligation to play it every month or something? Otherwise I don’t understand why it is even played.
absurd concept for the penultimate pga event on a boringly soft dark green course
i know its rained heaps but epitome of pga crap.
however the combination of :
biggest pga purse of the year, insane starting leads for some, far bigger easy liv money & 84 degrees F....
has made for some spectacular dummy spits.
- in particular :
billy Horschoe taking it out repeatadly on his bag &
johny rhambo a magnificent spinning starfish 5 iron kick encored with a mike spike follow up.
hopefully more to come.
(not a fan at all tho in club golf)
Dodgy shots by both on the 18th - but rapt to see Rory beat the god bothering snufflerRory starts the final round 6 shots behind Scheffler to win the Tour Championship
Well done, I thought about it. I've backed him a few times after 54 holes to shoot the lights out, a couple of times at the MastersPleased to say I backed Rory last night at 12-1.
Only 5 back. And If it wasn’t for a triple bogey and bogey start in the first round then he’d have been just 1 stroke behind them when they finished play in the 3rd round. Had to play 17 and 18 in the 3rd round which looked birdie-able and would put some pressure on before starting the final round.
X and Snuffler looked like they were getting in each others way so all up, it looked appealing.
Yes but will he get a retrospective 2-shot penalty tomorrow because his ball landed on a line or some other nonsense ruling dredged up - as used on Cam Smith couple of tournaments back?$13 mill u.s. at stake (1st v 3rd) & we don't see or discuss...
.rory's free drop from hospital tent
in particular-
entitlement....
would tent interfere with backswing of club of choice wedge or driver? who would know? never saw/discussed...frontal view of rehearsed shot would've been nice
two club no closer drop & place...
2 drops rolled outside fair enuf..aerial view wouldve been nice
but first 2 places settled deep, extremely quick picups & place... i guess because they rolled off their axis? ..or outside area?
3rd placement perfect lie so quick again without any close up/discussion
such a 3rd shot advantage...
just weird
Well-done indeed. Amazed you got 12-1 though.Pleased to say I backed Rory last night at 12-1.
