Running U.S. Open thread

Miller obviously had every sympathy for Monty's plight on the 18th, and none for Phil's. And that's exactly the way everyone should feel. Monty blew a shot under pressure. Mickelson blew his decision-making under pressure, that's way worse.

 

Could somebody get Costas a stepstool, please?

 

Let's hear some interviews with the chokers.

 

Disagree. Ogilvy's star has been rising big-time in the golf world the last couple years.  He's got a ton of game, and he's won a PGA event each of the last two years.  He's a bona fide top 20 player.

 

It's total BS that Phil won't come out and talk to NBC. After getting a stroke job from the NYC crowd all week, the least he could do is come out and show his face after gacking like it's 1999.

At least he let Monty off the hook. Another classic barf by the Scotsman.

 

I'm trying to think which one is worse, Monty or Phil, and it's got to be Monty. Double bogey from the middle of the fairway is brutal.

 

Switched clubs right before he hit.

171 yards.

Me thinks he went from soft 7 to try and choke an 8.

Bad choice.

 

Ogilvy won the Accenture Match Play earlier this year, so I don't think he's anywhere near Ben Curtis territory.

 

Exactly. Ogilvy was No. 17 in last week's World Golf Rankings. Anyone who's surprised he won a major hasn't been paying much attention to golf the last few years.

 

Lefty's Open goes in the trash can

 

By the way, is Ogilvy the only golfer ever sponsored by Puma?
