Rooting bigly for Adam Scott today.

I’m rooting for the guy who looks like he has a 240 average in his bowling league.

Apparently Wyndham Clark damaged a bunch of lockers in a temper tantrum after his round.

 

[Slacker]

It's OK, he can do that because he's ... ... ... Wyndham Clark?

Heard that too.

Well, then it was Friday because Clark was MC with a bogey on his last hole.

 

[BitterYoungMatador2]

What a ****head

When Clark destroyed the tee box signs at the PGA, T-Mobile ridiculously turned it into a sponsor activation, defending the guy. Good luck spinning this.

Clark's work with a sports psychologist got a lot of run as he became a Tour winner and then a major champ, for his sake I hope that woman is still on the payroll. And she's gonna need a raise.

Keep in mind that much has been made of Oakmont preserving its clubhouse as it’s been for a century — all the way down to keeping the original benches with spike marks on them. What Clark did is the equivalent of going into a museum and busting up ****. As a golfer and a western Pennsylvania native, **** this guy and I’m glad he probably won’t sniff the place when they host this again.

 

[ChrisLong]

If he did that at a Wyndham hotel, no one would notice.

 

[BitterYoungMatador2]

More like Ramada Clark am I right?

Rory could have gone a number of ways after becoming a Grand Slam champ but "insufferable diva" wasn't what I expected.

I would have never thought five years ago that professional golfers could give NFL players a run for their money, diva-wise. Yet here we are.

My grandfather lived across the street from Oakmont. The house was owned by his second wife. He wasn’t a golfer and I only was there a handful of times so I never saw the course

Only Burns and Scott left under par. Grind.

 

[Slacker]

Better late than never, I guess?

 

[Jake from State Farm]

Only Burns and Scott left under par. Grind.

Tied now at -2 through 5

 

[Jake from State Farm]

Took them long enough but we are in a rain delay

Took them long enough but we are in a rain delay

Between the rain, glacial pace of play and the setting sun, no way they finish this today.

Not all may not care who wins but a lot of people care about the 278.5 (-1.5) over/under. If it comes down to a putt on the 72nd hole can they bring in Al Michaels?
