Let’s talk golf. 2017 Major Winner’s recap:
Masters- Sergio Garcia US Open- Brooks Koepka The Open- Jordan Spieth
This weekend marks the last major of the season: The PGA Championship Vegas odds per Golf Digest: Rory Mcllroy: 7/1 Jordan Spieth: 8/1 Rickie Fowler: 15/1 Hideki Matsuyama: 12/1 Brooks Koepka: 25/1 Justin Rose: 35/1 Jon Rahm: 20/1 Dustin Johnson: 12/1 Justin Thomas: 35/1 Jason Day: 25/1 Daniel Berger: 50/1 J.B. Holmes: 80/1 Phil Mickelson: 40/1
As a Dallas guy, I’m definitely pulling for Spieth to complete the Grand Slam. Reports have been that the course has been really wet, and as we know from the 2016 Masters, Spieth can fall apart during inclement weather, so we’ll see. Also a big Fowler fan, and would love to see him pull his first major. Who’s your pick for this weekend? Any Blackhorse you think could get it?
Spieth had a mental error in 2016 masters. That had little to do with the weather with him dumping it in the water. I got dustin johnson or rory mcilroy.
Both very likely contenders, both bomb the ball which will help with the wet fairways
I think it might be time for DJ to bounce back but I doubt he will. I've always loved Justin Rose (fantastic swing) so I guess I'll be pulling for him.
Pulling for Spieth the whole way, both because he's my favorite and because the career grand slam is the only thing that makes the PGA interesting. It's definitely the poor man's major of the four - completely lacks identity.
Rory has to be my pick for any competition at Quail Hollow. Especially after how well he drove the ball last week I feel it will take a very poor performance for him to be out of contention!
Matsuyama in top form. Easily the best ball striker on tour right now.
For me it has to be Rory. Just crushing drives, carried one 365 on the range and not to mention his historical performances.
Would be nice to see either Rickie, Rosie or JDAY win.
I'm hoping to see Jordan pull it off - become the youngest player to win the complete Grand Slam for Majors and lay pipe through the entire female population of St. Louis.
Why would he go to St. Louis?
EDIT: I believe it is actually in Charlotte, NC?
Do any of you guys ever make it out to the tournaments? I was fortunate enough to attend the Masters this year and it was incredible. Was fifteen rows back on the 18th on Sunday and got to witness the playoff/Garcia winning his first major. I'd love to hear some crazy stories, as I'm sure taking clients to these events gets rowdy.
I was at Oakmont twice when I used to live up north. Was going to go to Quail Hollow this weekend but it didn't work out. I'll probably go to the Tour Championship in September. Not quite a major but it'll be fun.
Went to the US Open a few years back. Been to Pebble 3 times.
Brooks Koepka looked good after day one, finally got himself a normal hat and swings single length cobras.
But as always, just going to continue to bang my head against the wall rooting for Justin Thomas and Rickie Fowler until I am eventually rewarded with a major. Shout out to Fowler for having a triple on the card and still breaking 70, that's greater mental toughness than i could ever hope to have.
What? Koepka wore the same white Nike hat he always does yesterday and hit TaylorMade woods, Mizuno Irons that are not single-length, and Vokey wedges
my bad i must have been having a stroke last night watching, fucking Bryson DeChambeau. I was literally thinking to myself, this dude has never played this well in his life, must be the hat change.
JT ftw
Happy he won. I love the Spieth/JT/Fowler friendship
