Me too. But it ridiculous to say that no one needs the casual fan.

He's only 8 back. Fleck was 9 back after 18 holes in 1955.GOB said:

How good was Kaymer's drive onto that green? In a zone.

-9 up by 7 through 12* (started on back 9)
-4 today is two shots better than anyone else who went off this morning

Tremendous long bunker shot on the par 3 6th (one of the toughest scoring holes on the course this week)
Firmly in command, -10 and up by 8 with 3 to play

Kaymer with some bad iron swings. With his recent history of lacking confidence and screwing with his swing, this could get ugly for him over the weekend. 
Oh, and his problem is he's dropping to the inside on the transition to the downswing. He's a bit across the line at the top as well. He's gonna start cranking his right hand around to shut the face and hit a draw instead of a block.

I think he's always over-parallel. Nothing wrong with that, but agree it creates an opportunity for more strays.Kaymer with some bad iron swings. With his recent history of lacking confidence and screwing with his swing, this could get ugly for him over the weekend.

Yeah, usually just means that your club is pointed right of the target when it's at parallel at the top. Can cause a hook.Sorry...got it.

I too also thought Ricky was a bit of a ##### by the way he dressed on the course. But last year, I took my kid to the Masters. My son had a front row seat off the 9th green for the Par 3 tourney. A perfect place to sit because players would walk off that green and sign a few autographs.
Most players would sign for a few kids and then be on their way. Fowler was the only player to sign for every single person who asked. In fact, 45 minutes after his "round" had finished, Ricky was still walking up the hill towards the cabins signing autographs.

Tiger would have been at -20 if he had played.

When you do this (especially good players) you tend to drop the club to the inside to get it back on plane. When you do that you get 'skinny' with your hands close to the body and to the inside. Flip the right hand to square the face.

My issue has always been laying off...so just hadn't heard the term for the other way. Not usually the same results as when Hogan laid off.

F'n T.C. double chip - that was a brutal front 9 on the last day. Sincerely hope Kayner doesn't Vande Velde this thing.

Been watching all day after forgetting to record yesterday. I'm not a fan of the course. Rough in the US Open should mean guys hacking it out most of the time unless they get extremely lucky with their lie. These guys are spinning it from out of it and it's not penalizing enough. It has a British Open feel to me and one of those a year is plenty.

I see Kaymer coming back to the field today, I'm guessing he shoots 2 or 3 over.

There are plenty of really strong players either under par or at even that are capable of shooting 66. That could potentially put them only a couple back if Kaymer stumbles.

Footballguy
True, but stumble may mean 75+...only 4 guys under par so far today, and they are -1.
