I like the 1st 2, especially Xander.

It was a good race to the end. Xander won it on the 18th with that beautiful approach.
Who the hell is Rory Sabbatini? What a final round he had.
The 7-man playoff for bronze was pretty interesting, too.

Cameron "Amazing Hockey Mullet" Smith only needed 18 putts to go through TPC Southwind. A tour record.

Playing for your country seems to have taken the spirit off American golfers. So much for that. America won both gold medals.

I have probably never played as bad as I did today. Even when I was first starting. I couldn't drive the ball to save my life. I hit every fucking hazard.
After I found a club I could at least get out of the teebox with (5-wood), I was already hating life, stopped keeping score and couldn't focus on the short game.
But the weather was good, and I got to stay away from home for 5 hours. I'll take a shit round of golf over three demanding small kids and a stressed out wife. At least once a week.
In my group there was this approx. 100 year-old lady (no, I didn't ask, only estimated), and she struck the ball super straight and always pure. Her husband apparently died 15 years ago, and ever since then she's been playing every single day.
EDIT: I'm not sure but I think she scored her age. Mostly bogeys and nothing worse than a double. Maybe 50/50 bogeys/doubles. But that's got to be close, I reckon. An inspiration.

Ditto. It’s okay to suck at golf or life in general. That’s how I get through my day by accepting it.

USA up 3-1 in the Ryder Cup. But we all know Europe wins at the end.
Whistling Straits is an amazing course.

Gotta do it again tomorrow. Went to the 2012 Ryder Cup at Medinah (10 min away). Left Saturday with a 10-6 lead, wondering how much USA would win by...Mickelson blows a 3 hole lead, Tiger gives Molinari a half..ugh.

I'm hoping it will be only 10-6 USA after today...
