Koepka with a great first round and low key going for his 3rd straight major. Never seen a guy turn it on in the majors like he does compared to how he regularly plays. Certified stud. 

If you hear him being interviewed you can understand why a bloke that has won three majors has sneaked under the radar.

I've got a 2 iron with more personality.

I disagree, he's done some interviews that have been a lot more informal and chill in which he comes across like a really cool guy. I think he just doesn't care for the aspect of talking about golf or being a media darling.

Well, pretty much a walkover here. Koepka is a machine

[Captain Turdseye]

DJ making things interesting. Could be an epic bottle job here from Mr Boring. 

[Captain Turdseye]

I say bottle job but he’s only +2 for the round. Still, it’d be hilarious if there was a seven shot swing. 

 

He’s in trouble again. 

[Vincent Vega]

I cashed out on Koepka just before his meltdown. I saw the wind and thought better safe than sorry.

[TheHowieLama]

Be good if DJ won here

[Captain Turdseye]

Nah, looks all over after that bogey. The tournament was mildly exciting there for all of ten minutes. 

[Brownie]

Yeah, proper anti-climax.

Brooksy is just the epitome of a stud.

First game of golf, played yesterday,since september 2016 and I shot exactly the same score of 111. At least I'm not getting any more shit than I already am.

Where did you play, Vlad? Up near Walton Gardens?

[Bjornebye]

Justin Rose 1 shot a head after the 1st round at the US Open. 

[Bjornebye]

3 ahead. Flying. Come on Justin lad 

[polymerpunkah]

Pretty solid round from Rose.

 

More impressive, as he's walking off 18, he stops to shake the hands of (I assume) the tour official and the volunteer scorekeepers who walked the round with him.

 

Class.

He is a class act. Hope he wins this

[Captain Turdseye]

Not been watching but I’ve just seen that Woods finished bogey/bogey on his last two holes. What’s the projected cut?

[lifetime fan]

Fucking hate courses/tournaments where they don’t insist on rakes being kept in the bunker. 

[TheBitch]

Fucking hate Fowler. I hate his hair and I hate his eyebrows. Get in the bunker.

Missed this CT as forgot I wrote it. My two lads are members at Frodsham Golf Club so I occasionally play there when I do play.

My ol fella, brother and I are going on a golf holiday to Devon in 2 weeks time. 

 

I can’t wait. 

[Brownie]

I played in my society last week and won again, 3 games 3 wins this season for me! I’ve been getting all of the bandit talk even though I played off 18 in the first one (when my handicap was 20) and played off 16 in the last two when my handicap was 19. I just played well to be fair.

 

Those 3 rounds i’ve played to about 15 which is encouraging as i’ve always thought that’s about my level but my scores have been inconsistent and not reflected it. When my lad’s a bit older i’ll join a club and try to get it down lower.

[Brownie]

As for the US Open, the 3rd round was pretty boring, compared to the first two. The greens are getting really firm so it’s hard stopping the ball close to the flag so there was hardly any movement on the scoreboard (it’s supposed to be moving day).

 

Rose hasn’t been hitting the ball that well but his short game and putting have been as good as i’ve ever seen from him. If his ball-striking is good tonight then he’ll win.

Are you getting your handicap down through playing more or through lessons?

[Captain Turdseye]

Koepka is dialled in again.
