It's not even a waggle, it's small wiggling movements and it seems like he is making tiny foot movements as he looks at the target, does more wiggling, looks at the target, then just when you think he is going to bail out because he looks so uncomfortable he pulls the club back and swings. 

If you are in line to order food you really want to cut in front of this guy because he won't be ready to order no matter how long he stands in line staring at the menu.

I see you’ve gone out to eat with work colleagues.

Harman in trouble on the second hole. The weather is miserable. He does have the luxury of a 6-shot lead as Cam Young bogeyed #1.

[fan_since79]

Harman bogeys the second. Five-shot lead. 

Not much wind and the rain has stopped for a moment.

[St1ck]

While it might not make for an exciting watch I would hate to see Harman blow his 5 shot lead. Pulling for him to close it out.

All of a sudden Rahm is within three.

[St1ck]

That should do it.

Pretty much.  Harman has built up such a lead, that all he has to do on the back 9 is go on cruise control and let the followers press for birdies.  Won’t happen.

Avoiding a Van de Velde collapse, he should hoist the trophy for the USA.

Rory is missing some very makeable putts. He's not the only one.

[Blarg]

Okay, who had the bald headed midget to win The Open?

I half expect Rahm to do something that represents his last few years of rankings but he has a tendency to play scramble golf a lot lately. 

Rahm played like the second best golfer out there. Harman was one of the few guys that played short the entire round and it paid off. Rory and Scheffler did their usual launch it as far as possible off the tee box and spent a lot of time in the weeds or bunkers.

Harman was only in 2 bunkers the entire tourney? That is unreal for this course. 

[Tank]

if you've watched golf long enough, you know that there have been numerous occasions where if the guy with the lead going into sunday would just shoot par, it would oftentimes be enough to win. congrats to harman for doing enough today. he was solid all day long.

harman's such a small dude but he played huge.

Here’s another stat I just read.  Brian Harman made 59 out of 60 putts within 10 feet.  

Are you kidding me?  That’s an absolutely insane stat.  I wish I could make half of that.

Simply an incredible stat.  I couldn’t believe it, especially with the conditions on a course hosting a Major.
 

 

[Blarg]

The tour average is only about 41% on 10 foot putts. Only 70% at 6 feet. Harman will probably never have another tourneyment as good as that one.

Justin Thomas has made an heroic effort at the Wyndham to get within the top 70 for the playoffs. On 18 a great second shot and then almost a miraculous chip-in for birdie. His par puts him at a projected #71. He's never missed the FedEx Cup playoffs.

Raining hard now and could be for a while.

Justin Rose is -8 thru 12 holes at the St. Jude, the first round of the FedEx Cup playoffs.

yep, it's surprising he missed the top 70.

that should serve as some healthy motivation for next year.

when i first saw the top 70 list, there were at least ten guys on it i'd never heard of, and i watch pretty much every tournament.

2 weeks ago, Lucas Glover was ranked 112th and not even a blip on the Fed Ex Cup radar.

Today, his projection is #3 if he can hold the lead.  That is quite the jump, and quite the bump in your bank account in just 2 weeks.

[Tank]

cantlay with a terrific 64 today, which landed him in a playoff with glover.

glover has played out of his mind the last two weeks. i listened to a podcast on friday and the host was relating the story of what an incredibly troubled relationship he has with his wife, and what a complete mess it's been over the last few years. 

 

 

 

 

*okay, it was the paige spirinac podcast, but still the info was accurate

Yeah, Lucas Glover’s wife was quite a psycho back in the day.

when i see Xander, i see a quality golfer who is competitive in most tournaments he enters, but just can't seem to win big events.

kind of like how hunter renfroe never gets a big hit with the game on the line.
