Don't blame the networks, blame the club. They control every aspect of it.

It's just so frustrating, Rose, Day and Snedeker were grouped together, i think they showed just about every shot that Rose had and very little of the others.
The only time you saw anything of Day and Scott was when they came back from a commercial and the Aussies crew would show some of their shots.
 
Hoping for Sergio to keep it going.

Coverage ok, worst part is having to watch every mickleson shot. Hes got that kind of dumb stare the Matthew Lloyd always had.

Day is way out of form
 
What an outstanding leaderboard of the youngish guns. Hopefully Scott can get the putter hot, wouldn't put it past Day posting a number to catch.

All these blokes at the top , I think have thrown away a major when looking like winning, should be a ripper back nine
 
Fair momentum change here it would appear

Battled his demons on the back 9 Garcia, looks like he may just be left in front now.
 
Great for Garcia to win. Huge considering their relative positions off 13 tee. One of the gutsiest wins from a noted non-winner (majors) you'll ever see.

Flushed his drive on every hole after 13.

And don't you love the sportsmanship in golf? The young guys (Sergio not so young anymore) put tossers like Kyrgios and Tomic to shame.

Ole Sergio!

Leish is flying. Let's hope the wind blows over the weekend.

Shot an even par today.

Some big names missed the cut, Day, Scott, McIlroy, Rose, Dustin Johnson, Stenson, Bubba Watson, Horschel, Jimmy Walker, Jon Rahm, Dufner.
 
Justin Thomas has just tamed the Erin Hills course shooting a 63 to go to 11 under and a 2 shot lead.

Mark Leishman 5 under after double bogey on 11, he had played the first 10 holes at 3 under for the day. Surprise, surprise they're not showing him very much.

I know equipment and teaching technology has a lot to do with hit, however there is just so many bloody good players now, I think Jacks record might just stay for a few more years

Yes unless a MIRACLE happens with Tiger, Jack's record is probably safe for eternity.

Yeh I think Tiger like his name sakes is at about 1987.

I rate Tiger best ever, simply because, like today the equipment difference, it keeps the not so good players closer to the best, so hard to miss hit a driver now, also I think the depth of quality players and just golfers in general in Tigers era compared to Jacks is much greater. Clearly best 2 ever though, especially when it mattered.
 
Unravelled and put himself back together!

Amazing finish, 4 over his first 13 and 5 under the last 5. Lost the lead only to take it back and win by 3. Crazy stuff.

Kahunas the size of coconuts after that display.

Kuchar was all over him but he turned it around amazingly.

Spoke brilliantly afterwards as well. Never liked him much, but I have a new found respect.
 
It was huge wasn't it considering his previous Masters meltdown. His putting is unbelievable, it needs to be as he can be crazy off the tee.

Almost all the top golfers are great guys, mostly very humble. A great group around at the moment with Speith/McIlroy/Day (a bit of an injury sook in some ways, Mark Allen made some good points about this on SEN this morning)/Fowler/Johnson.

Rahm is gonna be top shelf too and is likeable.

Yeah, i reckon Day is the least likeable of the lot. Seems to have to be always whinging about injury or something.
