@mariner4life I see David Duval in the field getting cut with a +7, but still better than John Daly (and Mickelson).
Two stroke lead for Spieth with a round to play.

@Chris-B
Berger wins it -18 after 72.
Unless Spieth aces the par 5 18th, but comms don't seem to be entertaining that idea for some strange reason. -
@delicatessen Just turned it on to catch Spieth playing the 18th.
I'm a consistent slicer, but a hook into that sea would pretty much be compulsive!!!
Jordan ends up 3rd equal, which isn't quite the next big thing, but not a car crash.

Tiger Woods in surgery after car crash, say LA County Sheriff's Department
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/golf/56172067
Tiger Woods is in surgery after suffering "multiple leg injuries" in a car crash in Los Angeles, California.
The LA County Sheriff's Department said that it "responded to a single-vehicle rollover" accident in which the "vehicle sustained major damage".
American Woods, 45, had to be "extricated from the wreck" by firefighters and paramedics.
Woods' agent Mark Steinberg said: "He is currently in surgery and we thank you for your privacy and support."

Patrick Reed courting controversy again...

@kiwipie it did, the last one that people went off on, I wasnt bothered by it.
And in other news (I suspect this is mostly American fans, there are some right nutters on the PGA pages hate for de Chambeau, hate for Koepka, for Reed, for the PGA after they pulled an event from Trumps course)
Study shows golf fans are angriest sports fans on social media. Water also wet
We probably didn't need a study to confirm this, but now it's officially official.

Kevin Na withdrew from the 2021 Players Championship on Thursday, but not before he made one of the most entertaining 8s you'll ever see.

i would need a box of balls for that hole alone.

@mariner4life Did you see Dustin Johnson's shot to the 17th that hit the flag and shot sideways into the water - hilarious but must make a player feel like smashing his clubs.
Westwood is really taking the job seriously of taking the "best player never to win a" title from Montgomery - at aged 47. Yet another runner up and another tournamant where just posting a 70 (which would have been his worst round of the week) would have won him the title.

I may have missed it but I can't see any mention from you golf tragics of Mickelson becoming the oldest ever major winner - one months shy of his 51st birthday?
Pretty crazy and from 115th in the world rankings so not fancied in any way - his 6th major and almost 8 years since the last one (and over 17 years since his 1st).

Indeed, I'm quitting my job and going pro now!

It was an odd final round, neither Brooks nor Louis really fired a shot, and Mickelson could afford to play within himself down the stretch.
As such there wasn't really a 'moment'. It was just solid play from Phil while his challengers kept making mistakes.
