Title: USPGA 2018
Post by: Boycey on August 08, 2018, 11:22:59 AM
The final Major of 2018 gets underway tomorrow in Missouri with all usual suspects in contention. 4 Irish teeing it up, or 3 if you prefer. A Spieth win sees him complete the career Grand slam.. An unusual set up for those on this side of the pond with no TV coverage (bar the dodgy box  ;), Elevensports have the rights and are showing via their website and Facebook page  :o

Rory has been very consistent lately without getting over line so I'm going for this to be the week it all clicks for him and he'll romp home. Bubba also at a big price considering the form he's in.

course is long and wet by all accounts - will suit the bombers.

Can JT repeat? I sure wouldn't rule him out.

Don't think it's Sky's fault I think the PGA told them to do one they wanted a platform that could reach more viewers!

They fill a dedicated golf channel filling slots 24/7 and they haven't the rights for 1 of the 4 biggest tournaments of the year. I've flicked over and seen an hour long show on nick dougherty giving bunker tips!!

Badly needed by Lowry, hes in big danger of losing his tour card with only 2 events left.

Tigers some boy, +3 after two holes yesterday he goes into the weekend at -4 and well in contention..

Koepka looking well placed. Would like to see Fowler win it

Nice round from big Jon Rahm to keep my bet alive for the final day.  Its pretty tight at the top which should make for quality viewing tomorrow. Lowry battled hard to keep himself in with a shout.

Well he won't be talked about much if he loses his tour card... only one Irish golfer worth talking about

I wouldn't count out woods, Lowry and Justin Thomas would be a great pair to watch. Koepka very solid, like how he plays

Lowry in 5th, but you'd never know he was playing judging by TV coverage.

They been showing the guys that are realistically going to win, there's a whole raft of players in and around him that haven't been shown either.

Lowrys poor finish means he probably needs a big performance next week to keep his card.

Tiger is box office that was superb especially the front 9 and some of the shots he he from nowhere thoroughly enjoyable!

Koepka is a fine player as well and he deserved this even though he's missed a few relatively easy birdie putts.

He didn't quite do It, but that was amazing from Tiger!  64! I think that was the best round of the day??  Surely he is going to be force in 2019!  Amazing stuff.
