Disagree on the “anchor sites” for the US Open and Open Championship. It’s exciting and interesting to see new and different venues around the world. To me, and I’m sure I’m not the only one, it’s somewhat tedious to see the same names year after year after year. There are so many spectacular golf courses around the country and around the world. Why not showcase these spectacular venues? Especially because at the majority of these “anchor sites” the average person can’t even play there!
It's not about the birdies. I would rather see the players face disaster and see how they recover. I would watch it no matter what but I want to see them struggle. Watching Nelly trying to make the cut was great. Sad ending.
Taylor’s patriarchal attitude towards the women of the LPGA is quite refreshing. Patriarchy is the natural order of society, and women are happiest living under its protection. Bravo to you, Taylor.
Nah dude...personally I like to watch women struggle in the US Open just like the men do. I tune in for the competition and how the women handle themselves in adverse situations, not to watch them make slews of birdies. It's great theater when the best best player in the women's game gets severely penalized for hitting less than quality shots at the wrong time. To watch her reaction and watch her try to settle down after that type of trauma , similar to the shock Sheffler had to overcome in Louisville after being falsely arrested, I think is absolutely the best type of reality TV for a national audience. Love the game by itself but to see strange added dimensions occasionally makes it that much more entertaining and intriguing.
Disagree on the “high scores and difficulty turning off fans of the game.” Nope not even close at all! It’s more fun to see these guys struggle and battle on one tournament out of the year. How often these days especially is the winning score of a golf tournament not -15 to -20 under or lower? The Memorial was fun to watch for that reason this year!
lancaster was great, loved it. It's not about birdies. Mens Canadian Open was finishing at same time womens US open was finishing. Also nelly missed cut.
The dude on the right just said (paraphrasing) "we will probably never see another U.S. Open at LACC in our lifetimes." Wrong! The U.S. Open is scheduled for 2039 at LACC.
Also, the US Women’s Open is being held at LACC in 2032. The USGA is far from done with LACC. The talk about LACC being “to easy” as a US Open site is totally misleading, as the 1st round lead kto the final winning score in the 2023 US Open changed from -8 to -10. LACC played as difficult over the last 3 rounds as any US Open course. Because of lack of experience with setting up LACC, the USGA’s 1st round set-up proved way too easy, but rounds 2-4 demonstrated how easily set-up can be changed to make LACC as difficult as desired.
There will be about 25 players that will rip Pinehurst apart. Golfers are too good now. The whole disocurse during and after the week will be that courses are too easy
Good show. You guys are great

I tottally agree7800 yards it’s set up for big boys only no rookies or short hitting aces,

I appreciate your optimism.

Disagree. If the course says firm, par would be great.
Your comment didn’t age well. Pinehurst #2 proved to be a real challenge for today’s players and their technology.
I can’t wait a liv golfer wins to see Johnson Wagner cry
Good luck waiting.
I didn't hear the news that Sheffler WD from the US Open. That will be the only way a LIV golfer wins.
This comment aged about as well as a gallon of milk placed in the hot Pinehurst sun for a week.
@@quantumpotential7639 Yeah, Johnson Wagner really looked torn up that Bryson won. He was so torn up that he partied with Bryson Sunday night.
