Here's hoping an American shows those dopey drunkards in Ireland what a winner looks like.  🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷

More carnage, please.  Raining sideways is more fun than a raining birdies.

[MuggsyB]

Hopefully, the forecast changes.  Other than Thurs, it doesn't look like there will be a ton of wind .  Somewhat upsetting.   The rain looks moderate at best.

So much for global warming

[MuggsyB]

Who ya got, Tower?  Maybe Hatton doesn't implode? 

[tower912]

Won't be watching.  Vacation.   Time difference is too great.

[Jockey]

If it ain't in Amurica - then it ain't great.

Who cares?

[Uncle Rico]

If it ain't in Amurica - then it ain't great.

Who cares?

Because we have to assert our authority and dominance in the world.  Quite frankly, we never should have let the Irish into our country.  Don't get me started on how they helped the bad guys win the Civil War

No worries.  Have a great vacation.

I'm watching flight tracker to see if Tiger is a late entrant. Only then will I make my prediction.

[MuggsyB]

Scoring looks fairly good early.  Lefty at -2?  He'll implode soon.  Rahm seems to be a popular pick.  You woukd think Morikawa would be dangerous.

[MuggsyB]

Crap drives from Morikawa and Sheffy on #1. 

[MuggsyB]

Dead pull fron Scheffy on #2.  Yikes.

[MuggsyB]

Who is Jacob Oleson???  -5 through 15.

Lefty is a true American who believes in the troops, flag and protecting the rich.  Would be a great day for America if he were to win

[MuggsyB]

The course is gettable right now.  The LIV golfers still bother me.  And they shouldn't be announcers for this imo. 

[MuggsyB]

Scheffy piped that 2nd shot (267} there.  Too bad NBC fked up the camera work and coverage of it.

The LIV golfers are great patriots

At +4, his only danger is probably to the fans along the fairway.

Bad Boy Scottie getting off to a good start probably doesn't bode well for everyone else.

Fitzpatrick coming off two top-10s and a good first round may be my pick now that it doesn't look like Tiger will make it.

I see the troops are being disrespected again

Captain America shooting +6 may spark military intervention. Or at least some tariffs.

At this point, I wonder if American athletes really understand that we're great again

Sweet J!  WTH has happened to this guy?  T-118?????  Smh.

He's just another soft American athlete who gets a lollipop even when he embarrasses the troops.

Patrick Reed still occupies real estate in people's heads?  I don't particularly care for the guy, but he's not a top 50 player, has only won 1 tournament (on the LIV Tour no less) in 5 years, and other than a couple nice Masters runs, hasn't had a top 20 in a major in like 4 years.  He's a weirdo with a lunatic for a wife, but I'm surprised people care enough to take amusement when he plays like ass given how he's been white noise in the golf world for half a decade.
