So making cuts in majors is what Eldrick has been reduced to? He might as well be an honorary starter at the Masters. I can't believe people tune in to watch him hack his way around a course to shoot 20-something over.

Sage Steel got nailed by errant drive yesterday.

https://www.outkick.com/sage-steele-hit-by-tee-shot-at-pga-championship/

Embattled ESPN anchor Sage Steele was taken to a Tulsa hospital on Thursday after she was hit by a tee shot while watching the PGA Championship as a media spectator.

On the third hole on Thursday, Jon Rahm’s tee shot hooked wide left and hit Steele at reportedly 181 MPH.

Golf writer Geoff Shackelford describes watching the incident unfold in real time:

“I was standing behind the tee when Rahm hit a hard hook into the left trees. He immediately yelled ‘Fore Left!’ and aggressively waved his arm pointing left. The impact must have been brutal: Rahm’s tee shot ended up in the center of the fairway.”

Brutal, indeed. Shackelford also relayed that Steele was “on the ground, holding her nose, mouth or chin area” with blood all over her hands.

He rasis!

Woods is +13 and they start the day off interviewing him. And, let’s show his every move….

So who the fuck do you want to see? The leaders don't tee off for an hour. If you have ESPN+, you can watch any group you want practically.

Do you not remember televised golf in the 80's? We were subjected to watching Nicklaus walk around for an hour before he hit a putt... While he was 15 strokes back. Nothing has changed.

So the biggest gallery at the course is following a guy who's 20 shots back. You bitching at them too?

Just tired of all,the hoopla for a guy 21 shots back. And you don’t have to be a dick. Or maybe you do.

I pity those gallery people.

There are plenty of highly ranked players way ahead of him and they get zero coverage.

Tiger is also in a featured streaming group for those who want to froth over his double bogeys. Don’t subject the rest of us to it.

I'm not trying to be a dick, but you guys should give it a rest. We just went through these same takes a month ago.

Coverage started at 9AM this morning. Who did you really think they were going to show?

DrMongoose · « **Reply #181 on:** May 21, 2022, 01:27:33 PM »

Used to the they only started live coverage at 2pm as the last 3 groups teed off.

It was not that long ago we never saw the front nine live at Augusta

They do have to fill time with someone.

Thin Red Swine · « **Reply #182 on:** May 21, 2022, 01:29:15 PM »

They have LOTS of someones to fill time with. Just mix it up. They showed every single one of his 79 strokes.

We can’t give it a rest. There’s nothing else shown so nothing else to talk about.

On the bright side, he will play even earlier tomorrow so he will be out of the way for the real contenders.

Woman with a Razorback rain poncho got some air time. Ian Baker Finch commented on the “Arkansas Hogs” and then immediately segued to the Arkansas river being close by and running through Tulsa.

And of course, since it’s in Tulsas there was the obligatory segment on the Tulsa race riots of one hundred ears ago. Jim Nantz commented that the Greenwood district was “continuing to rebuild” from the damage done by the riots. One hundred years…lol.

Pereira coming back to earth a bit. Letting some others back in. Bubba may be the guy to beat.

Thomas can’t putt and McIlroy is starting to mentally fade.

DrMongoose · « **Reply #189 on:** May 21, 2022, 04:47:35 PM »

Interesting as the come down the back nine on Saturday, non one taking charge. Pereira leaking some oil and facing a long par putt on 12. 4th bogey in last 5 [emoji3063]

Southern Hills is winning

Bubba just hit a sage Steele tee shot

Zalatoris can’t hit a fairway. He’s otherwise settled down.

Rory has gone full basket case.

Eldrick says that the quick turnaround from the late tee time Fri/early tee time Sat and the cooler temps on Sat really didn't help him, but he's committed to playing at St. Andrews because "its one of his favorite courses in the world". I wonder what the odds are that he gets a late tee time Fri, barely makes the cut, thus gets an early tee time Sat and what is the weather like in Scotland? And if he hits it in the hay and has to muscle and tork his body to get the ball out of that stuff, no way he makes it all 4 rounds. But he's a gamer!

This is a roller coaster final round.

Pereira not making it easy on himself.

Justin Thomas may back door this and nance will loose his [emoji90] cause the tiger connection

Pereira makes a big balls par putt on 16, everyone else missed that left today

Pereira just screwed the pooch.
