Stricker rolling back the years here too. Love it.

Schaufelle is such a bottler man.

Definitely.

Good last day there. Was close the whole time, lots of movement, love that.

Got Berger in at +550 early this morning before he tee'd off. Thought he was in the zone yesterday, even though he wasn't leading going in to today.

Four eagles in three rounds is something though, and sank an eagle on the last hole today.

Wish I would've bet more now.

Some putt to win alright.

Saw a clip of Lashley too, man that was rough.

Wind was pretty brutal today but looks like it got even worse, they just called it off. First time I’ve seen that.

2015 at St. Andrews was the last time apparently.

Yeah it’s not something I can recall happening in the US, play getting stopped for just wind. Can recall it a few times at The Open, makes sense the way a links can dry out and how much wind we get over here sometimes.

I always think of this nugget from the 2015 Open when wind causes a delay at a golf event. pic.twitter.com/7tuVatg4sV

Doesn’t seem fair

They just suspended play at the Genesis Invitational because of wind. Keegan Bradley wishes it would have happened a few mins sooner 😂 pic.twitter.com/9gkl82cjgR

Homa, bro. 3ft 4in putt to win it and rims it.

cubaricho · « **Reply #5459 on:** Sunday 21 February 2021, 11:29:37 PM »

And then his tee shot goes left and ends up literally against a tree. Bummer dude.

Shak · « **Reply #5460 on:** Monday 22 February 2021, 12:01:58 AM »

Got over the line in the end. Generally I’d want Finau to win but that loss would have stayed with Homa a long time, pleased for him.

Hell of a chip on the 10th from right by the tree. He definitely pulled his tee shot on the second playoff hole and got away with it though, I’ll not be convinced otherwise.

Hard to know what to make of Finau, never felt like he was going to make that putt to win did it? Maybe he’ll win a big one and the floodgates will open but he just doesn’t seem to have figured it out yet.

Tiger Woods having surgery on multiple leg injuries after car crash

STM · « **Reply #5462 on:** Tuesday 23 February 2021, 08:07:56 PM »

Lucky to survive, judging by the state of the car.

The Ideal Crash · « **Reply #5463 on:** Tuesday 23 February 2021, 08:23:43 PM »

I wonder if it was another DUI.. hate to even think it but he has form.

Bellars · « **Reply #5464 on:** Wednesday 24 February 2021, 01:14:13 AM »

Does not look good. I doubt he will ever play golf professionally again, given how worn down his body already was, and how bad this accident appears to have been. Very sad.

JeffJ · « **Reply #5465 on:** Wednesday 24 February 2021, 07:59:13 AM »

Tiger lucky to be alive by the sounds of it, multiple leg injuries and with the back problems probably means we’ve seen the last of him play at the top level.

DUI was the first thought when the story broke but apparently not, more like speeding and lost control. He’s always had a wayward drive in him like but none this bad.

Tough brief for any biopic filmmakers, you’ve got golfing master class era followed by incredible comeback win, you’ve got domestic disasters peppered with DUI and driving f*** ups and you’ve also got the raging porno angle

I’d be surprised to see him swing a club again at any tournament, to be honest.

Will give it a watch at some point

No drugs or alcohol present in Woods' crash. No criminal charges and only issue there could be is if he was speeding or not paying attention. Which is good to hear.

Definitely good to hear. Hoping to hear more good news in the future too.

Course looks fun as hell this week but those greens seem hella fast 😅

Wolff got to +11 during the first round and withdrew. This was the kind of say he was having:
