    You have to put groups like that together.
    I remember a couple years ago the whole Koepka-DeChambeau dustup at the Northern Trust. That had potential for disaster.
    Also...going years back....Sabbatini and Crane.
    Years past, Ben Crane made Spieth look like Angel Cabrera.

    You missed it. When Phil hit the shot into the 1 tee box, they had a close up of him saying, "Im so sick of this."

    I forgot who Tom Kite was talking about when he was picked up on a mic, while waiting on a tee for a slow player, saying, "fine him, fine him, suspend him."

    My son has picked up my habit when watching golf and a Slowpoke is being shown of saying, "Hit. The. Fucking. Ball. Already."

    I suck at golf but I'm not slow, so there's that.

    There is a guy in the senior league I play in who's truly terrible. He gets two strokes a hole on a nine-hole course and shoots over that handicap with regularity. But Charley hits it, walks to where it is (if he find it) and hits it again with no muss, fuss or delay. A golfer at any level could play in a foursome with him and not mind. That's how it's done. I played in his group yesterday and we walked the nine in 1:40.

    As of 10 a.m. ET on Friday, only 15 guys under par. Course is fighting back today.

    Late yesterday, DeChambeau missed a six-footer for par and the mics very clearly caught: "these greens SUCK so bad." Stay classy.

    At my club, we all have a saying that if someone is taking too long to play a shot, "Hit the fucking thing Kevin" as in Kevin Na. He's actually gotten a good bit quicker.

    Pieters +3 on back through 5 holes. You wanna talk about holding onto the steering wheel with both hands so this round doesn't completely go to shit........
    He can't finish this round fast enough.

    I wish they'd show more angles of the elevation and slope of the greens. TV doesn't do it justice.

    Of the many golf accessory/collectibles outfits out there now, my favorite is Zac Blair's The Buck Club with the slogan "Slow Players Will Be Asked To Leave The Property." Whether he actually holds true to that when The Buck Club actually opens, who knows. But it's cool on a golf towel.
