Golf 2016 - I Phil we'll never hear the Rory of the Tiger again.

Re: Golf 2016 - I Phil we'll never hear the Rory of the Tiger again.

Stenson vs Mickelson for the championship. With the lead changes they have gone through this final round should be a great watch.
 
Re: Golf 2016 - I Phil we'll never hear the Rory of the Tiger again.

Phil with the old fashioned iron off the tee to fescue left, pull to right fescue, short pitch and sinks the putt for a routine par on 12. Unreal.

How many more of the cat's lives does he get this tournament? Seems that every time he should have a worse fate, he gets a bounce or bails himself out.

This has been a tremendous final round so far. 4 holes left or will there be more?

Best ball 29 for the front 9.

The USGA maniacally defends par. The R&A says "here's our setup, may the best golfer win and we don't care what the final score is."

Which is better?

-17 doesn't win. Took a 63 to beat Phil.

Both had a great round really. Couldn't ask for a better round. Fun watching both. Stenson made some amazing putts.

Mickelson would have had to shoot 62 just to force a playoff.

He didn't lose it. Stenson flat-out won it.

I just love when I get to play World Woods Pine Barrens for $24. Even better when the Ranger tells us on the back 9 that the course is wide open and feel free to go back on the front if we feel obliged.

It had been rainy and a little messy for our front 9, so of course we went back to play it again. 27 holes at a highly rated Florida course, for $24. Buddy and I both played pretty well too.

That place is pretty special. Out in the middle of nowhere though.

Canadian amateur Jared Du Toit is in the final pair with Brandt Snedeker at the Canadian Open.

Last Canadian to win the Open was Pat Fletcher in 1954.

The amateur from Kimberley, B.C., had the best view, of course, of his 40-foot putt for eagle on the 18th hole. The shot helped move him to 2-under par on Saturday afternoon and into a tie for second at the RBC Canadian Open.

His caddy Sean Burke — who met du Toit for the first time on Monday — was next, rushing to hug the 21-year-old on the green as the fans started to cheer. The hundreds of supporters who'd endured the relentless heat on the baked hills surrounding the bunkered green at Glen Abbey Golf Club got to their feet and started clapping, most of them with their hands above their heads.

Spain's Jon Rahm, who was teammates with du Toit at Arizona State University, had stayed to watch his long-time friend finish his round and started jumping up and down and shouting.

Finally, as du Toit started the steep climb up to the official scorer's trailer, the fans started singing. Straining to be heard over the cheers and applause, a growing section of fans belted O Canada.

Played Ford's Colony - Blackheath this AM. Tooled around in a pedestrian 100 from the senior tees. Lots of water on the course, but that only cost me 2 strokes. Figured out on hole 18 (water ball) that I was blocking my irons. Now to the range to make sure I have cured that problem.

For me the difference between 100 and a 90 or so is one bad shot on a hole that sets up a domino effect to double or worse. Need to minimize the bad shots.

Would recommend the club to anyone. If you stay @ Marriott's Ford Colony, you play the course for $55 in the AM, $45 in the afternoon, and $35 for late afternoon/twilight. Subsequent rounds are $10 less. GolfNow has good prices, too.
